Seeing Girona as a lucky underdog is one thing I have not seized to drop because honestly they still appear as such until they prove otherwise and this new season may be that time they may have to prove it because they are going to be faced with a whole lot that's quite different from all that they experienced last season, and the experience this season is going to stretch them a little to seeing how much they can be able to withstand the pressure that comes with the season. Considering it's going to be a really hectic season for Sevilla, if they still make it through, then we can say for sure they are now a top contender in the la Liga.
It is hoped that Girona will be able to maintain their game like the previous season, at least they can compete at the top and provide a threat to clubs that are used to being at the top. Last season they did their job very well, they managed to finish in 3rd position, which is actually usually occupied by the 3 La Liga giants, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. but last season they managed to take over that position.
A tough task awaits them next season, because it is certain that they will have a quite busy schedule because they will participate in the Champions League. They have to prepare themselves for that, because the Champions League will be a new experience for them. As far as I know this is the first time they have been in the Champions League (correct me if I'm wrong). With their first experience in the Champions League, they will definitely be a little surprised by the atmosphere they will feel, and it could be a burden for them.
Predicting Girona performance next season is something that is very difficult, especially to compete in the top four of the standings, because we have never seen Michel squad do that so far. Of course, Girona has the opportunity to repeat its impressive season, but the tight match schedule might make Girona less stable. The hope is that Girona can provide tough competition against Real Madrid like last season, even if it is only temporary. Michel survival is a big advantage for Girona, because many clubs are interested in recruiting him at this time. In my opinion, Girona must retain a number of its mainstay players to face the intense competition in La Liga and the Champions League. Girona journey last season was truly surprising, Girona was able to attract our attention, and they acted beyond all of our expectations.
