Flurry of service off the bench
Jan Virgili recorded five crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 2-0 defeat versus Levante.
Analysis: Virgili only managed one accurate cross and was part of an overall poor service day for Mallorca. The forward should be better going up against a bad Oviedo team in the season finale, as the side has allowed 57 goals in 37 league games.
Six crosses Wednesday
Virgili had six crosses (three accurate) and three corners in Wednesday's 3-1 defeat to Getafe.
Analysis: Virgili tied a season high with six crosses Wednesday and those crosses yielded quite a bit on the attack. He created a season-high four chances -- after not creating a single chance in his last nine appearances -- and recorded three accurate crosses on the attack. While none of that production resulted in a goal contribution, it was still a very solid 66 minutes of action from the midfielder.
Clears illness
Virgili (illness) has recovered from the gastrointestinal problems that forced him off during Friday's win over Girona and was back in team training Monday, the club posted.
Analysis: Virgili had been unable to continue after just 26 minutes off the bench due to the severity of the illness, but his swift recovery puts him right back in contention for the weekend fixture. Justin-Noel Kalumba and Zito Luvumbo had been on standby to cover in his absence, but Virgili's clearance gives coach Martin Demichelis his preferred options back in the squad heading into Sunday's clash against Villarreal.
Illness forces exit Friday
Virgili was forced off after just 26 minutes off the bench in Friday's 1-0 win over Girona due to gastrointestinal problems, leaving his availability for next Sunday's clash against Villarreal uncertain, according to Juanmi Sanchez of La Zona 10.
Analysis: Virgili headed straight to the dressing room after being unable to continue, with the illness clearly too severe to play through. The club will monitor his condition over the coming days before making a call on his involvement next weekend, with Justin Kalumba or Zito Luvumbo expected to see larger roles if Virgili needs to sit out any upcoming fixtures for Mallorca.
Scores in away defeat
Jan Virgili scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus Deportivo Alaves.
Analysis: Jan Virgili scored his second goal of the season as he returned to the starting lineup after a period out of the team. This goal put Mallorca 1-0 ahead in the game, but they conceded two second-half goals to lose 2-1. Both of his goals this season have come in the last three games. After six games without a start he has returned to the starting lineup.
