Real Sociedad’s manager, Imanol Alguacil, is facing a tough start to the La Liga season as his team struggles to find their form. Despite his previous success in qualifying the team for Europe in every full season he has been in charge, La Real is currently just one point above the relegation zone with only one win and three goals in seven games.
The Sporting Director, Roberto Olabe, has expressed his full support for Alguacil, emphasizing his calm demeanor and focus on the team’s needs. He believes that Alguacil is the right person for the job and that results will come once the team finds their identity and the players start performing better. Olabe also mentioned that there are enough talented players in the squad to turn things around and start scoring more goals.
However, Olabe himself has come under scrutiny for the late arrivals of Orri Oskarsson and Nayef Aguerd in the transfer window. He defended the decisions made, stating that there was a lot of work put into the transfers and that the focus now is on converting that work into performance on the field. Despite the challenges faced, Olabe remains optimistic about the team’s ability to bounce back from their current situation.
With tough matches against Valencia, Anderlecht, Atletico Madrid, and Girona coming up, Real Sociedad will need to step up their game and start getting positive results. The team will be looking for a strong response in the upcoming fixtures to avoid slipping further down the table. The pressure is on Alguacil and his players to turn things around and show their quality on the pitch.
