Declining of Laporte, the most difficult to fill for Valverde
The decline Aymeric Laporte, practically and safely until end of season, by the serious injury sustained on Thursday with the Under-21 national team, is the most difficult to fill for the coach Athletic Club, Ernesto Valverde, who has the French center as one of its basic parts.
The absence of Laporte Athletic gets caught in one of the positions where scarcer effective anda Atletico squad, otherwise virtually two players per position.
Although it is also true that, in addition to the specialists, Xabi Etxeita -the other owner and Carlos Gurpegi usual, Valverde can fall back on, and as it has done in the past, players like Mikel San José medium centers and Gorka Elustondo and even the side Eneko Vault.
But none of them is left-handed, like the French. And outputting the game from behind perhaps only to equiparársele San Jose. If anything well, although to be seen, Vault. Etxeita is irregular and Gurpegi, who has had good years after injury last season has not recovered from its previous performance.
The truth is that supply Laporte is more complicated, because it is a left-handed center that dominates almost every facet of the game in position. Its shortcomings, if any, have more to do with issues such as concentration or sufficiency strictly qualities of the game.
The Under-21 international footballer is high (1.89 cm.), Powerful, aggressive, fast motion, quick on the long runs, dominates the air balls in the two areas -this year and 5 goals- leads; and start the game with a lot of quality, either short, long or sometimes driving.
This makes him, according to various rumors and information, appealing piece for the most powerful clubs in the world economically. Thus, his name has been linked in various media entities dimension of FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester teams, United and City, or Bayern Munich.
And also desired by the Spanish player selection, as has publicly confessed Vicente del Bosque, in case you can not find a place in the French Didier Deschamps absolute and decide to take another international road.
Therefore, the termination clause of the contract is 50 million euros, the highest in the red and white template with the Inaki Williams, as he was born in 1994. Although the front is later appearance in the elite.
The San José option as a substitute for Laporte might seem the right one to address the lack of French at the output of ball. But seeing somewhat complicated because it is difficult to think of a return to a position of Navarre plant that seemed natural hers but which did not give the expected level is.
It has been the move to midfield which has made San Jose almost indisputable Beñat Etxebarria with eleven Bilbao holder, and the first relay Sergio Busquets of Barcelona in the selection.
In both fights he has leapfrogged Ander Iturraspe, once a key player for both Valverde as before to the Argentine Marcelo Bielsa, who delayed Javi Martinez central to accommodate the talented vizcaíno pivot.
Perhaps the possibility of juntarle with Iturraspe in the team may decide to delay Valverde to San Jose. Although it is something not usually do but duty during the game due to injury or expulsion of a colleague.
Even when it has given rest to Laporte, rarely, the Txingurri has chosen Gurpegi, Elustondo and even Vault, I barely knew the position.
Declining Laporte has also uncovered the lack of central Athletic on a short and medium term hypothetical future if the French surrender at the end of a manifestly more substantial deals in the economic and Gurpegi, which this summer 36, decides terminate his career.
There are plants in Athletic Bilbao with some projection, as Jonas Ramalho (22 years), Yeray Alvarez (21) and Oscar Gil (20), common in the eleven 'Cuco' Ziganda. But none has managed to make the own area "Comanche territory" for opponents.

Athletic - Deportivo 4-1
Athletic Club and Aritz Aduriz, who with his third treble of the season has already reached 30 goals so far of course, have liked this Wednesday in San Mames with a win at Deportivo Coruna strengthening their European aspirations.
Ernesto Valverde's team reaffirmed recovered the good feelings last Sunday in Mestalla Valencia 0-3 with a spectacular encounter with stellar protagonism of Aduriz, who scored 16 league goals, but also important Markel Susaeta, the pin in all three goals of the ram, and Raul Garcia and Iker Muniain, key in while the shock opened.
In any case it was a good choral work the Atleti, who opened the scoring with a goal from Muniain finished off in small area a good combination with Oscar de Marcos, Markel Susaeta and Raul Garcia, who left the ball for riveting, and let things already well on track to break with the first of Aduriz, a cross from the right Susaeta.
He pulled one back to around locker rooms Oriol Riera, drawing a pass also to the small area of Lucas Pérez, after beating Gorka Iraizoz after clearance by Pedro Mosquera.
But it did not last long joy to coruñés set, which saw Aduriz sentenced the shock to the hour first finishing off of head a center of Susaeta and then impaling the ball out of the blue almost impossible for the effect dribbled the ball in the It rejects a defense to the new center Susaeta.
With this victory the Athletic strengthens in seventh place and continues his pursuit Celta and Sevilla to enter the top six, ensuring Europe and avoid round in two previous summer.
Depor, however, still stuck with 32 points in the table, more and more away from some European places with which he came to dream, and extends to eleven straight games leading winless and prevent him win in the far in 2016.
Two breaks Aduriz to the back of the visitors' defense in the first three minutes, the second saved by Pletikosa foot to a tight shot Aduriz in the race, and advanced Bilbao's intentions and the problems that were going to happen later the deportivistas.
A shot from Fajr, a center from the left of Argentine Jonas, well stopped by Iraizoz was the only shot of a Depor who came several times but generally was very surpassed by Athletic in the first half.
And for 13 minutes Lions opened the scoring in a good combination born in De Marcos, who, after the continued Susaeta and Muniain, focused past Raul Garcia header put an the ball in the small area that arrival Muniain, who continued and finished the move almost on the goal line.
the clash stopped, but as the rain that raged at times, the Athletic returned to air on the half hour and was determined to kill off the match before the break. And he succeeded half because he scored the second goal, although he could make several more.
Up to three centers goal shackled the Valverde in four minutes, from 29 to 33, but neither Muniain hit to round off the De Marcos, nor Susaeta came to Raul Garcia, nor Aduriz holed into the net service Susaeta his connecting more than simple head.
But spared the San Sebastian striker in the following Susaeta center in 36 minutes, this time down and as clear as before. Aduriz he managed with the goal in which is his goal number 28 of the season, the fifteenth in the league.
He faked Aduriz with the twentieth at the start of the second half, which did achieve later, but did not quite reach out a pass from Muniain on the front.
Aduriz sentenciase before the crash, the Depor appeared to him a glimmer of hope in a getaway Lucas Perez Mosquera clearance left him alone with Iriazoz. Enabled by Lekue on the other side of the field, the Galician front surpassed the local goal in his hasty departure and the small center for Oriol Riera remachase area.
did not last long the illusion, as Aduriz finished off two minutes after the umpteenth center Susaeta, this time with his head, and the hour mark, to the surprise of everyone, topped the goal an almost impossible ball out of the blue after another center over Susadeta.
In that play, with which sum and 30 goals so far this year, 16 of them in the league, the striker showed how sweet it is.
And in the party Athletic has made clear it has already overcome the bad feelings of a few games ago against Real Sociedad and Olympique Marseille and with seven goals in two games in three days, today and the 0- 3 Sunday at Mestalla, takes its European ambitions via League.
Athletic continues to tighten and does not fail
Luis Enrique, coach of FC Barcelona , said Wednesday that there is"league" after the win Atletico Madrid that "continues to tighten and does not fail" against Real Sociedad which leaves the 'mattress makers' provisionally to 5 points of its team before facing a "commendable" Rayo Vallecano and to which he does not care lose possession.

" We generate our game with ball possession and created chances possession, but in the end is secondary, is a means to an end and I worry about losing possession zero, I would worry about losing the game , " he was sincere. "The game of possession is key to our game idea. That does not mean that against the Lightning, who will play one on one in the whole field and tranquility while, becomes secondary and the priority is to win the game , "he reiterated.
In a struggle to avoid relegation, the franjirrojo set is played more and that can make them more dangerous. "This year there is still no team that is clearly visible that you will have to save themselves trouble, there are many teams involved to show a good image to play football . It is more than open the descent and will have results that are not expected, " he warned.
And this Ray, believe that you can learn many things. "You can always learn from any computer. What I like the Ray of Jemez is the love that has to attack and make life difficult for the opponent as far from his goal. It is something I share, "he said.
"As a player he was a defense to the old and coaching share his philosophy , I would have liked to have a coach like that . I always admire and appreciate offensive coaches profile, I identify a lot with them. Lightning was a team that all relacionábamos with a rough football. Paco Jemez Lo has much merit, is commendable , "he said about it .
Oblivious to ls white crises
On the other hand, Luis Enrique said that there is no problem in your wardrobe, but declined to enter assess whether they may have been at Real Madrid after the defeat in the Madrid derby and statements of Cristiano Ronaldo complaining about the level of their peers. "Concerns not have beyond helping my players to prepare for the match in the best way," he argued.
" Ours is a unique and different group . The day to day is very easy, perfect harmony and just enjoyed such a magnificent profession is football. I appreciate the great costumes that I have, it is a unique and different group.In the other locker room I not dare to say because it would be neither fair "settled.

Athletic in advantage, because of Valencia's errors
A balanced match their colours dyed with Athletic in seven minutes .Valencia and the Basque side went evenly matched in everything, even in the gray suit at times, yes, more alive in the first moments after the restart.But when the story focused towards the last leg, Athletic took three defensive horrors (Gayá first, then Parejo and then between Madrid and André Gomes) local to knock them out. Sabin Merino, Muniain and Adúriz they mauled the Mestalla . The defeat of Neville deflate it evolved over the past fortnight. And in the league ten points to Europe are complicated, although the Athletic Sevilla points to sixth.

Muscle, centrocampismo and the strength of the defenses regarding attacks drew a first time insipid in Mestalla. Surely more than an act like coaches, as their teams showed solvency back, but not so the beholder, always anxious to see goals. And to achieve there were two actions especially in the first act, slightly sprinkled by rain.

Muniain drove to the center of the front of the Valencia area, De Marcos helped him with the drag of central and shot looking to the left post Alves went out.
There were no major trouble for goalkeepers, because on the lawn of Mestalla football tangled concentrated in the wide area. The Parejo and André Gomes (it had a strong start) and Beñat and Mikel Rico failed to organize the offensive play Valencia and Athletic respectively. One closed the first half with little presence in the areas . Noble duel between Valencia and Basque. Perhaps with too much respect at times.
Animated resumption
He tried to encourage history Valencia in the second half. More strength and prominence in their stadium. Cheryshev and Andre Gomes stoked the matter. And they sought to deepen. At the time, the whole valencianista best handled with the ball and he looked Athletic problems in recovery efforts.Cheryshev tested Iraizoz and Road 55, were Basques who replied with a vertical action that ended with the ball in Sabin Merino, who sought satin left post of Alves , who palmed to repel a ball that went into a network.
He left well in offensive key start the second act. It generated controversy an action in which André Gomes centered to the far post, headed in Negredo although difficult angle and the ball hit the arm Etxeita. It could be a penalty.Passed the hour mark , and already Alcacer in the field, Iraizoz saved the locals. She cooked a combined played on Valencia, which ended with a pass into the space between the central for the Valencia striker, whose shot, which was not good, forced Iraizoz to clear, avoiding both local .
Seven minutes three errors
The Athletic was getting even local. And he returned a phase of centrocampismo, although the Basques progressed more insistently. He moved his bench Valverde. He took the time to San Jose and Adúriz , which gave air after the European tie against Marseille, and the plan worked Atletico coach. Fixed the local defence more Adúriz. And he had a chance to kick a corner, but the shot of Etxeita hit his head on the front, a clearance from the goal of Alves instead.
Valencia CF mistakes cost three goals for Athletic. First, San Jose recovered before a Gayá fallón and Basque centrocamista gave continuity arriving by the right side, focusing roundly and Sabin Merino finished off inpecable head . He condemned after his team Parejo . Madrid wanted to make a frivolity with the ball in the danger zone and lost to Mikel Rico, which enabled action for Muniain Internase and batiese below Alves legs . The ruling came ten at the end. In a corner. André Gomes and Parejo is hindered and left the way clear for Adúriz rematase freely for 0-3 . There already finished the story ten minutes to finish.
