Calderón has tried a new defence of three and two wing backs

The green-and-white coach has been working on a clear idea over the last couple of days in terms of the starting eleven. In the last few training sessions he has repeated the starter proposal of Adán; Juanfran, Amaya, Jordi, Nacho; Lolo, Salva, Verdú; Juan Carlos, Baptistao and Rubén Castro. Given Leo's discomfort and the fact he was not able to train in Tuesday or Wednesday's afternoon session, Chuli took the Brazilian's place in today's training match, a match with other variants. Calderón has tried a new defence of three and two wing backs. Caro has entered the group of proposed starters occupying the central fullback position flanked by Amaya to the right and Jordi to the left. The boss has given the right wing to Juanfran and the left on to Juan Carlos. The midfield remains the same: Lolo, Salva and Verdú. Chuli will not be on the wing but will join Rubén Castro as a centre forward. This was the formation the Argentine manager worked with yesterday. We shall see how this develops over the next few days. Worthy of note is the applause offered by the spectators as the players left the pitch.
