Do not miss a detail of the match Valencia vs Celta Vigo updates and commentaries here on VAVEL.

Valencia coach José Bordalás, gave the last pre-match press interview of the 2021-22 season and talked about some points:

''I won't comment on that. I'm the team's coach. I'm dressed in tracksuits and I'm just talking about the sporty, everyday side. Obviously, everything that came out is not lost to us. But I won't comment because I don't think it's my place or my job. ''

''Excuse me, but I'm focused on the team playing a good game and the performance is good. I insisted on this until the last session, so that tomorrow the team ends the season in the best possible way. We have a chance to improve our position in the table by beating Celta tomorrow and that's the only thing I'm thinking about.''

''I told the players to try, as captains, to make sure the team doesn't shut down, gives a good performance and achieves victory. We know that practically nothing is at stake for the team, but we can improve in the standings. We also talked about how they were, especially in the case of Paulista, who is now ready to return to the team.''

''No. This week we have had virtually no contact because of everything that has happened. I imagine that, starting next week, we will talk and meet to see what the next season will be like. Obviously, the future is the only thing that worries me. The team spent three seasons on the edge. We're not thinking about falling, but we're not looking at Europe either. Valencia CF is my concern.''

''I understand that the club has to sell for economic reasons, but Valencia CF have to improve and strengthen themselves to try to finish in the top positions. That is my only concern and what I will focus on in the meetings that will take place going forward.''

''I'm not going to talk about the audios, nor will I get into any debates. It's not my job. My only concern is that the team does its best and that Valencia CF manages to be where the club deserves to be. The fans, who are incredible, and the club deserves not to be where we have been in recent seasons. If you don't strengthen and weaken, your chances are reduced.''

''I am currently the coach of Valencia CF and I have no other thought than to continue. My obligation as coach and team boss is to analyze things. We had a very good season. We managed to reach the final of the Copa del Rey, but in the championship we couldn't overcome that barrier. We had no problems, but we need to improve. My obligation as a coach is to demand that. I'm not the one making the decisions. That's the reality we've all been able to verify over the past three seasons. My mission is to direct, train and demand what I think is necessary for Valencia to get emotional again and be able to fight for good positions.''

''I'm not a person who changes my mind unless shown otherwise. I still think the same way, obviously. I am not a person who has two faces. I am not a person who does not tell the truth or who lies. The emotion is the same because I love my profession, football. I'm Valencian and I want the best for Valencia CF. What I demand is always done with the best in mind for Valencia CF. I demand the best for Valencia CF, not just to complain, but because that's what I think is best. It's my obligation as a coach. Then we'll see if the club has the possibility to improve the squad.''

''There can be opinions of all kinds. I can guarantee that the team gave everything. We could have done better, obviously, but we have to be critical to improve things. As a coach, I try to improve every season. What is clear is that the Spanish league does not forgive mistakes. Teams want to be better every year. And if not, if you want miracles, go to Lourdes.''

On the future at the club, the coach said: ''I cannot comment. I just have to worry about the sporting side, with the squad, trying to play at the highest level and that Valencia CF don't have any difficulties. I cannot comment on any initiative that has nothing to do with sport.''

Like Celta, Valencia no longer have great goals in LaLiga other than to end the competition with a victory in front of their fans at the Mestalla Stadium. In the last 10 games, the team led by José Bordalás won only one game, lost four and drew five times. In that period, he lost the Copa del Rey final to Betis on penalties.

Fran Beltrán won the Estrella Galicia Award of the month of April for his great performance in the matches against Real Madrid, Espanyol, Athletic Club and Getafe.

“Thanks to the fans, my teammates and the coaching staff, I got these trophies that, although they are individual, in the end is thanks to everyone. I'm happy and excited because in the end it shows that the work being done is good,” said Fran Beltrán.
