lover of the stabilitywith few rotations except in obvious cases of sanctions or injuries, and even less of revolutions, the poor results of this 2022 are ending the alternatives of a Vicente Moreno that already tries to fit like a puzzle the best possible alignment. He seemed to have definitely found it in this last stretch, against Barcelona (2-2) and Sevilla (1-1), but the shipwreck against Villarreal (1-5) forced him to reinvent it againor at least that would be convenient, on Saturday against Getafe. The great handicap of the Espanyol coach is that he finds himself more and more handcuffed when it comes to choosing.
