Aitor Karankanot Franz Kafka, has undergone an astonishing metamorphosis in the Grenadeand in his case, unlike what happens with the work of the Czech writer, the transformation has been positive, very positive for the rojiblanco team, which has gone from an almost `vegetative state, having a foot and a half in Second Division, to being a competitive team, capable of resisting the onslaught of Atltico at the Wanda or of signing a 2-6 against a direct rival like the Majorca.
In just one month, what the coach from Vitoria has achieved is close to the paranormal, but it has more to do with work, coherence and common sense, ingredients that have revitalized the rojiblanco team, the second best team in the championship since the landing of Karankawith eight points and as many goals in favor in four games, numbers surpassed only by the bara who, in this period, with one more game played, has achieved a dozen points.
Raise performance
Apart from the enormous therapeutic work on the mental plane that has been carried out by KarankaShaking off the tension of a squad gripped by the situation, the Basque coach has begun to carve out a team that begins to be recognizable, solid, organized, supportive and ambitious when the ball is in his possession, signs of identity that are rooted in the stage of Diego Martnez and that have led the Andalusians to improve in all facets of the game.
Changing defense benefits was the initial priority for Karanka, who already from the first day managed to put together a much less permeable team for rivals. In his four meetings since taking on the challenge, the Grenade he has kept a clean sheet twice, going from conceding 1.75 goals per game to just 0.75, an obvious improvement.
But the hand of Karanka It is also felt in the offensive plane, where the Nazares have become much more forceful, raising their figures from 1.13 goals to two goals per clash, with an effectiveness of 67% compared to 30% in the previous stage, figures that show the metamorphosis that is undergoing the Grenade and that has left him one step away from permanence.
