Manolo Jiménez said he sees the team well for tomorrow's league debut against CF Reus. "I'm very happy for the work that they have done in the preseason before Reus, only two players will be missing, that's the information we manage. Affordable, zero. Relaxation, none. I have the best team to play against them. Reus is a team that makes me vary the way of playing a bit, but of course it will be competitive, "he said.
In relation to the departure of Vicente Gómez, Jiménez commented: "For me it was a surprise and a pity Vicente's departure, he is a boy who won me because of his personality and education, but he looked very tired and exhausted. Being a captain is not comfortable, Vicente needed out for him and for his family and it is a pity that it comes out but the personal has taken precedence over sports, "he stressed. "Many Canarians wanted to leave UD Las Palmas when I arrived, in my team I want players to defend the shirt," he admitted.
The coach dedicated part of the press conference to clarify the issue of Tana. "It would be good for me to talk only about Reus, whether Tana does or does not, the homegrown players or those who leave, that does not lead to anything, Tana is injured but he is an interesting footballer. I want the issue to be fixed as soon as possible, "he said.
