M\u00e1laga<\/a><\/strong> heads into the league break with the need to change course.<\/strong> The Blue and Whites go into this pause as bottom of the Primera Divisi\u00f3n<\/a><\/strong>, with just three points on the board and still without a win. <\/strong>A scenario that was hard to imagine just three months ago, when the team was celebrating its return to the top flight in style.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The start has not lived up to expectations, and in Martiricos several issues are already piling up that require attention. The squad building, doubts surrounding the physical condition of some players and, above all, the lack of attacking output<\/strong> are causing concern for a team that is struggling to turn its efforts into goals. The results are doing little to ease the tension either.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The schedule now offers almost three weeks without competition. A period that M\u00e1laga intends to turn into an opportunity to pause, analyze what has happened in these opening rounds and look for solutions<\/strong> before returning to action. Recovering players, fine-tuning certain aspects of the game and raising the competitive level are some of the pending tasks as they look to face the road toward their stated objective with confidence: survival.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n The club itself wanted to send a message of unity this Monday through its social media channels. “This team is not going to stop working or fighting. And it will do so \ud835\ude6a\ud835\ude63\ud835\ude5e\ud835\ude59\ud835\ude64”, the<\/strong> club posted, aware that the moment calls for everyone to pull together.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The squad returned to training at 11:00 after holding a group talk. The session began with physical exercises and continued with different drills involving the ball. The players who started on Sunday against Getafe had a lighter workload than the rest of their teammates, as part of the usual management of exertion after a match.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Meanwhile, Funes still cannot count on his full squad. Cajuste, Aznou, Murillo, Aar\u00f3n Ochoa and Lobete<\/strong> remain out of the group due to their respective injuries. The break therefore comes as a key window to recover players and, with them, part of the room for maneuver M\u00e1laga needs to respond.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
