How Girona turned to a formidable team still surprises me. One unique thing about them is their resilience, not minding of they are playing a big side like Barcelona or Real Madrid. I am very convince they will finish the season around the top to securing one of the European competitions.
I knew anything could happen. But I don't feel confident that they can survive for European competition. They are still in a long period. Last season they finished in the top 10 and I was indeed quite surprised. This season indeed they are in good financial shape. They joined the City Football Group led by Sheikh Mansour. They are on a good path, but to get into European level is still quite difficult with the players they have at the moment.
However, if for example Girona is able to consistently win and or at least get a draw when playing against mediocre teams, then it is very possible for Girona to be able to secure a European ticket. Because so far, Girona has only lost when playing against Real Madrid and drew against Real Sociedad. Therefore, if Girona can consistently beat other mediocre teams then it is clear that Girona will have a good chance of being able to compete in the top zone throughout this season. Great of course for Girona, because no one thought Girona would be able to recover as well as it is now. Even though they still don't have a squad quality above average, but Girona managed to be in the top zone in the La Liga standings this moment.
