Michel Sanchez’s stats with Girona
Here’s a glimpse of Michel Sanchez’s impact as the head coach of Girona in the 2023/2024 season:
During the 2023/2024 season, Girona demonstrated their exceptional performance by securing a total of 27 victories across various competitions.
Each win highlighted the adept tactical strategies and inspirational leadership of Sanchez, the team’s manager. Furthermore, the team exhibited resilience by achieving 6 draws and enduring only 8 losses, showcasing Sanchez’s remarkable ability to adapt and glean valuable lessons from setbacks. Girona finished an impressive 3rd in La Liga. Their attacking style and defensive solidity were the hallmarks of Sanchez’s philosophy.
Speaking on his side’s form when they went on an incredible run, Sanchez stated, “It is not the time to talk about being able to win La Liga, but it is time to say that we are a team that can aspire to make Europe. That is very clear to me and the players are showing it to me. In 10 games I will see if there are possibilities of fighting for La Liga, but we have not yet reached the last third of the competition.”
“After 26 or 28 games we will be able to see what Girona’s real objective is, but there is still a long way to go until then. The equality that exists in the first division means that if you lose two or three games you fall in the table quite a bit. Furthermore, we are sure that neither Madrid, nor Barca, nor Atletico Madrid are going to lose much. To be in that top four we have to be complete winners and it is very complicated. I don’t look beyond the next game, but I have the feeling that we are going to fight for Europe.”
