Girona head coach Michel was left to rue a lack of attacking options but urged his side to cope with injury absences after Saturday’s 1-0 defeat to Real Sociedad.

Last season’s surprise package Girona have struggled to find form this campaign, slipping to 13th in the LaLiga standings after their fourth defeat in 10 games.

Mikel Oyarzabal scored the only goal of the game on the stroke of half-time as Girona put in another disappointing performance at home.

Michel lamented his side’s depleted attack following injuries to forwards Bryan Gil, Yaser Asprilla and Abel Ruiz.

“We have to keep working, the offensive potential of the team without injured players… you lack depth, you always lose somewhere, we don’t have any player on the pitch who can play as a winger,” the Spanish manager told reporters.

“We need to improve in our final pass, in our one-on-one determination, to get into the box more. These things are the most difficult thing in football, scoring goals.

“Last year we had a lot of goals, this year it’s harder for us.”
