LIGA: 04-05-2013 | Depor v Atlético | 22h00 | Pre-match thread

[caabrego]

Tough game. Silvio, Pizzi & Abel Aguilar won't play, and Salomao is doubtful.
Can we extend the positive streak?

No, he only has 9 yellow cards not ten as some people were saying

I can't see Vasquez dropping either Aythami or Kaka, so I think Ze will be on the bench again. Or maybe we'll see a surprise like 3 centre backs or a trivote in midfield. I doubt it though. What the players need now is continuity of the system they're playing. Also, I expect Camunas on the left wing, not Oliveira. Other than that, the team picks itself.

If Falcao got injured in training we might have some hope. Otherwise this will be a massive task. We're not capable of a clean sheet against ATM and I can't really see us scoring more than 1 goal against them. But strange things happen in these end of season games. As long as we take the field with a high intensity and a good team spirit, there's always a chance of a big result.

I hope that Silvio, Pizzi and Assunçao left good friends in Atletico. Maybe they should call them this week. Hey, guys, how are you? Everything OK? Don't fight to much this weekend, you know, you already are qualified for next CL, just relax and wait for the Copa Final.

Btw, I hope Filipe Luis still having a bit of blue&white heart too. And even Adrian should have.

Do we owe them any wages still? That will surely harden their hearts...

I think most people were hoping 10 instead of 9!

No, we don't.

Btw, in our last visit to Getafe, about 3 months ago, Filipe was at the stadium watching the game.

And if we owed them money, that wouldn't be a problem at all. We owe some money (585,537.56€) to Colotto, who is coming with Espanyol in a few weeks. We only have to explain him, with calm, that if he wants to get paid, it's needed for Depor to stay in Primera. If not, in Segunda maybe there would be a liquidation, so he probably would lose the big part of that money, so it's much better for both parts if Depor stay in Primera. After that conversation, Colotto would know perfectly what to do if he wants to get paid: a few mistakes, 1 or 2 own goals,...

[niklaso]

I think we would win with our usual starting eleven but with up to 4 changes I have my doubts.
Atletico haven't seemed as sharp as earlier on the season so I still see possibilities. Hope the fans will support so much that depor will get away with a win.
It would be nice to see valeron with some good assists

Ah, the intricacies of La Liga - better than any spy novel!!

[DepHun]

Xosé is brilliant

[tonideportivoBG]

this will be tough game for us, now we must show that we have long bench if Falcao does not play we have our chance, but if he play... my memories are fresh, we all remember what he did to Insua.

[deporiginal]

The game is important for two reasons. The obvious one is that we need the three points. The other one is that if we beat Atletico, they will come out with all guns blazing against Celta a few days later. If we lose, they'll likely face Celta with a few substitutes as they have Barca coming up a few days later.

Unfortunately, there's a big chance that we'll end up back in relegation after this weekend, at least temporarily. Let's hope for a surprise win.

[tonideportivoBG]

They can't be second neither fourth so in my opinion they don't need to push up strongly, probably Diego Simeone already think for the final in copa, let's hope they will play like Levante 3 weeks ago.
