Injuries weigh down an unbalanced and short squad after a hopeful start with victory in the Kingdom of León, but which is already questioned after two draws and two consecutive defeats

The worst thing that can happen to a totally revamped project is a shaky start and nerves and doubts. This is what is happening to Badajoz, who after four games without winning are already beginning to question the planning of a squad short on troops and unbalanced in some positions.

The black and white team has two draws and two consecutive losses, especially the latter with a bad image that has generated some concern among fans. Isaac Jové tries to lift his spirits and recover the sensations of the start of the championship. “We have to trust ourselves again and be solid again. Trying to take advantage of opportunities, that’s football », he pointed out. Badajoz lacks definition above and without Francis Ferrón the slope becomes much more pronounced. The black and white coach recognized the shortcomings in that sense and assumed the mistakes. “We are not being forceful. Then, when you concede and they penalize you so much, it is that you are doing something wrong. Beyond the talent of the Castilla players to decide the match, Jové considers that they deserved to make up the result and that they have to correct certain disconnections in which their team falls in decisive moments. “The mistakes we made were more decisive, which penalized us a lot.” On that aspect, he had an impact on improving both defensively so as not to concede as much and offensively. “The areas are decisive and we have to improve. You have to analyze this defeat well, although I think it was all a matter of mistakes », he pointed out. Against Algeciras, Badajoz also paid dearly for their ineffectiveness in attack with hardly any shots between the three posts. In Valdebebas, on the other hand, the team improved in that sense, and created several clear scoring situations even to have taken the lead, but they lacked punch. “It was not something new: we have been generating many very clear situations for many games,” Isaac Jové assumes.

Francis Ferrón remains as an islet in the middle of an ocean of midfielders and a scarce defensive plot that does not have a natural replacement in the left-handed profile either. The absence of the striker from Algeciras in the last three games exposes Badajoz’s lack of gunpowder in the final meters. One casualty added to another five in Valdebebas, four also due to injury (Alfaro, Soto, Valcarce and Raúl Palma) and Mancuso’s due to suspension. These problems were evident in the Alfredo di Stéfano where the black and white team came with six casualties from a squad of 19 players from the first team. With such a bleak panorama, three homegrown players had their leading role in an idyllic setting brimming with young talent. «The melody and the music is exciting, they will like it. We cannot give names, but they will be exciting, I am sure”, Luis Díaz-Ambrona said about the preparation of a totally reformed squad and the signings that were to come during his presentation as president of the new Badajoz Board of Directors last June.

Despite these disappointing last two weeks, the Catalan coach takes a positive reading of the courage and pride that his players showed with the very unfavorable result. “The team competed and never gave up despite such an adverse score and, in that sense, I leave proud.”
