Ruined? No. Will there be problems? Yes - they’re always problems come derbi time. It will be weird without fans. This game is about the passion of the city, the futbol is second imo.

Update on La Liga situation
From Monday 25th all the light green areas will be in phase 2, whereas the light blue areas, still in phase1 will not be able to progress to stage 2 until two weeks later, that is June 8th.
The government has said la liga will not resume until the entire country has passed through phase 2.
So if any of the phase1 provinces fails to be advanced onto phase 2 on June 8th, it will be another 2 weeks more i.e. June 22nd before they are reconsidered.
All that is providing the present rules don’t change in the meantime.

A bit of a non story really, you are allowed gatherings of 10 people under current guidelines and there were 12 of them. Big deal.

Ariz Aduriz the Athletic Bilbao forward finally hangs up his boots after a career total of 640 appearances, 221 goals and 17,300 elbowed defenders.
Over 100 la liga defenders have immediately reduced their dental insurance cover and the dental clinic franchise ‘VItalDent’ has filed for bankruptcy after shares fell sharply on the news. A spokesman for VitalDent said “we hadn’t fully recovered from the shock of Diego Godin being transferred to Milan, but this was the final straw”.

Godin has looked shocking for Inter. He really looks past it. He had an alright start, but he just kept getting exposed. And it’s not a back-3 issue either as he’s played that system a lot with Uruguay.

Would Monchi give him a call? He’s 34 but has the heart and leadership of a warrior.
I rarely watch internationals but I recall Uruguay usually line up with 4 at the back Godin partnering Gimenez with Laxalt and Caceres on the sides, do they shift to a back 3 when in possession?

Currently, Uruguay does lineup with a back 4. But i think a few years prior to the World Cup, they often played 3 CBs, seeing that Caceres is a versatile defender.
I haven’t seen Rennes play at all this past season, but they do have a good defensive record. Although, looking purely at stats, i remember seeing they never kept a clean sheet with Gnagnon on the pitch. 
But that match he played vs Atlético was so good, i could only hope he recaptured some form. I wouldn’t mind him as 1 of our 4 CBs next season.

Banega shouldn’t have apologised, he should have said ‘Two of da bitches pitched up without invitation’

I liked Gagnon, could be a real prospect in the future, he-s the sort of player that needs the Sevilla player coaching.

Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but there’s been a number of old Sevilla matches being uploaded to SFC’s YouTube channel during this lockdown. I’m currently watching the match away to Osasuna from the 16/17 season.
Jovetic & Ben Yedder featured up top in this one, but it was a torrid start by us.

Anyone heard that the Derby TV broadcast will feature recorded crowd sounds?
I’d sooner hear the authentic sounds from the bench.

Viewers will be offered a choice of watching matches with the noise from the stadium itself – where they will likely be able to hear shouts, instructions and insults between players and coaching staff – or for the game to be played to the backdrop of recorded chants from fan groups.
Just choose which audio suits you.
