Giovani Lo Celso, then Betis‘ goal. Because the five goals scored by the Argentine international are also out of the question for approximately the next seven dates on the calendar in which the green and white team has the obligation to hit the table in all the competitions to which it is now due until the next stop. No time was a good time to lose Fekir, nor was it a good taste for the Green and Whites to have to temporarily dismiss Isco, whose injury has been no less than five months after suffering that painful relapse. Now that it must do without its top scorer, it is precisely the best of times to demand from those footballers who are not offering the level that Betis needs so that its future reality coincides with its ambition and thus fights again for the European positions. May the aspiration of the table be similar to its ambition described outside of it. And above all, let the goal return, your goal every day that is weighing down the Betic team so much at the end of these first nine days, because it only oozes eight. Now, yes, now that you are about to lose it, it is time to recover it in other boots. Because without Lo Celso there can be paradise.
It will therefore be necessary to prepare events such as Osasuna, Atlético de Madrid, Athletic Club, Celta de Vigo in LaLiga without the one from Rosario; and in the Conference League both Copenhagen and Celje, essential duels in October and November for the future of a Betis that must win and convince in equal parts both in the domestic competition and in its continental participation, not to mention its cup confrontation. against Gévora, which could be the expected and gradual reappearance of Lo Celso, if everything goes well, even if he regains minutes and confidence, before football returns after another pause. There remains a lot to get the ball rolling even in Extremadura, what is clear today is that beyond the impact on the global game that Lo Celso himself offers, which for me is as superlative as it is greater in comparison to the special affinity that he has been providing with the opposing goal, Betis is left without a striker who is not a striker but who had been fulfilling the functions of some teammates who have not been living up to what Pellegrini’s fifth Betis deserves. Both in the creation phase and at the forefront of the Heliopolitan scheme, highly conditioned by this absence of competitiveness, and why not say it, of rebellion.
The Argentinian’s scoring instinct disappears so we will see if there are seven crucial events in which the green and white have to learn to score without him, and it is not fair, because of one, two, three and even four injuries in the same one. and complex area of the field (Lo Celso, Isco, William Carvalho, Marc Roca), to advantageously point out and a posteriori the work that the sports management has been doing in recent months and in which it is already engaged in view of the winter souk. There is no soul or club that is free from tedious ailments, as inopportune as they are annoying, but it has been chance that now takes over with the magic of Lo Celso, who is now waiting for a candidate to be his replacement, like in his day the Beticismo was waiting for someone to take over from Isco. That seemed impossible until someone did it.
