Luis Enrique
is in a good mood these days.
He has had to deal with one of his boys,
Fabián
, not being able to travel from
Naples
for health reasons, also with one of the called,
Dani Carvajal
, being injured, and also with the lack of time.
Although, for a guy in a good mood, this has been easy to fix.
It was 11 years since the Spanish team had not played three games in 10 days (great championships on the sidelines).
The communication department already warned at the end of last week of the difficulty of contacting individual players as the succession of duels with their previous and post-matches made it very difficult.
"It's a short time to work, but nothing happens
,
"
explained 'Lucho' this Tuesday, before facing, on Wednesday, Portugal in the first of the trilogy, a friendly against the neighbors (then there will be the two official clashes, against
Switzerland
on Saturday in Valdebebas and against
Ukraine
next Tuesday in Kiev).
The day before a game, training is very light, just as it is on the day after a game.
So the sessions of Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Sunday and Monday of next week are being, and will be, light.
So much so that in many of them you won't even step on the grass.
"I would like to have morning and afternoon sessions every day, work on many things, but it can't be," said the Asturian coach, who far from protesting, sees the positive side.
"We train on the field in a very light way, since the physical load that we can put in the day before and after the game is almost zero, but we adapt. So we
use the talks
. Today [this Tuesday] in the afternoon we train, but We will do it in this room [the press room], to talk tactically about things to strengthen and improve, and we will do so these days. In fact, the training will be more
'indoor'
in talks and videos than what you can see in the field ", said Luis Enrique, who against Portugal will look, above all," which players need minutes and which players need to rest. "
KEPA, STRONG IN THE FACE OF HER SITUATION IN CHELSEA
Just after the coach
Kepa Arrizabalaga
appeared
.
The Chelsea goalkeeper is experiencing an unpleasant situation with his coach,
Frank Lampard
, in the team.
He has been a substitute in the last three games and it seems that that will not change, at least in the short term.
"I have seen him strong and well, I have spoken with him and he knows that in all sports careers there are good and less good moments," Luis Enrique had advanced earlier.
The doorman confirms it.
"I feel good, strong, with confidence. Obviously it is not the situation neither dreamed of nor expected, but during the races sometimes we have difficult situations. We have to keep working, calmly and with the confidence to turn it around."
Questioned by the little affection that his coach in London shows him in public, he also did not hide: "That is one more question for him."
