Manuel Pellegrini, Betis coach, lamented in the Benito Villamarín stadium press room the bad game played by his team, who suffered their third consecutive defeat in LaLiga against Eibar, fifth in the last six games. A worrying situation from which he hopes to get out, ensuring that he feels strong enough to continue leading the team.

Match analysis
"We find ourselves in a very orderly team, playing very aggressive football. We started well in the game, we created a couple of chances to score, one very clear. Then we started to lose balls for their football, which pressed up, we lost confidence and ended up losing. a game with two stopped balls, a corner and a penalty, and creating few chances in the rival area due to lack of confidence "

He's busy?
"I am worried, when you do not find the solutions and the results are not what you expect, you have to be. We have made changes, but we continue to make important mistakes. We are stronger and more united than ever, we have to find the solution among ourselves. Let's get a bit of confidence, the team is going to play again like at the beginning of the season. "

How you have seen the team in the dressing room
"The only thing that we cannot criticize the team was the desire to do things. Maybe we did them wrong, hitting balls and losing balls, we were disoriented about how to beat Eibar, but there is no lack of win. I see the team training well in the week. We all came with the defeat of Bilbao and the possibility of showing at home that it had been a specific moment. We did not succeed and we all have to find the football solution starting with making fewer mistakes. It cannot be that we have been awarded six penalties in 11 games and we conceded a corner goal. We lose the games due to specific reasons, but the team could not find the laps for a rocky team that scores well, plays direct and is aggressive. They score goals from stopped ball and with a score at Please, it is more difficult to find spaces in your defense "

Without signings, are you considering taking a step to the side?
"No, as for the squad, I don't think it's time to complain. We have a team to play better than what we play today. The personal point of view, on the contrary, the harder the gear gets, the harder the coach gets. The only thing that I do not lack is just the desire to be able to reverse this, much less think about taking a step aside when the championship is starting. We have to regain confidence, try to regain defensive security that allows us not to play always against. I am sure that when the team achieves a result, confidence will return and the individual performances of players who can do better will return. "

Are you concerned about the level of criticism this week?
"In this profession we have to accept criticism and in the last two games we have not done things well. We have to criticize ourselves, we give away goals, we have lost a football line that we had quite clear. In the last two games we did not create chances either, we have given facilities behind. In that aspect, we must accept criticism and seek the solution to this pothole, which I am sure we will find ".

What is failing?
"When we started, despite the defeat against Real Madrid, we finished the first half beating Valencia and we were on the right track. Today we are not and we have to know why we have lost that line, I work with the ball, why they make us so many goals ... It is the coach's job to find the solution with different names, with different performance, but without a doubt we urgently need to regain confidence with results ".
