The Galician club’s last and only victory in LaLiga EA Sports was three months ago. Since then there have been 6 defeats and 4 draws, leaving the club still in a relegation zone.
Many would believe that Rafa Benítez’s position was in jeopardy after the draw between Valencia CF and RC Celta, but that is not the case. According to the Madrid coach, his team’s data supports him in continuing the process and since they are not last in the table, they still have room to get out of the relegation places. But time is of the essence and a later change to the bench could be too late.
Benítez trusts his team and with all key players that he has in every position. From a more optimistic perspective, the coach believes his team has what it takes to fight for consistency. In fact, he assures the directives that Celta will not only be out of the relegation places before the end of the year, but also far away from it.
RC Celta is the least beaten team of the teams listed below and Rafa Benítez will work with this information
Currently the teams with the most goals conceded are: Almería (37), Granada (33), Villarreal (25), Osasuna (24) and finally the Celtic team (24). The first two are behind in the overall standings (20th and 19th respectively) and the other two are trying to improve positions. The fact that EA Sports is not the club with the most goals in LaLiga encourages the capital city coach to continue to believe in the goal.
Beyond the valuable draw at Mestalla, the Celtiña team managed to keep their clean slate after 20 days without conceding a goal. This achievement was recognized by Vicente Guaita, who won the title ahead of Iván Villar and Agustín Marchesín. Benítez’s idea for the next duel is to retain this title but score their second win of the season with at least one goal.
Rafa Benítez needs the Celta presidency to fulfill his mission
It is true that the team led by the former Real Madrid must achieve positive results before the winter market. Likewise, he asks the General Directorate led by Marián Mouriño (President) for help in carrying out the various new commitments for 2024. This allows the coaching team to ensure compliance with its overall goal (maintenance of the category).
With this in mind, Celta needs multiple moves in every area of the field. One of the most urgent attacks is the offensive, with Jago Aspas suffering from an endless drought. Another critical point is in the attacking midfield, where Gabri Veiga’s absence is more noticeable with every game. There are many points to discuss and little time left.
