Yeah what could have been. Nicely done by Nesyri as well.

Lamela should have played that through

Yeah we’re not finishing it off well. But we should have it.

This is a great free kick chance. Right on the edge of the box

big win. definitely some points to quibble with, but on the whole really can’t complain too much about a 2-0 win against a tough team that was undefeated away. better finishing and this would’ve been a blowout, but still an (overall) convincing win. and we’re back top!

We’re now joint-top, hopefully this win gives us a confidence boost coming into the champions league fixture against Lille

Amazing result for us! Joint top of la liga again! A shame we never got that last minute goal against Mallorca to be clear top. Still we in an incredible position. Worthy title contenders in my book!

Happy Sevillista here, fairly good game. Decent control overall and enough things to be positive about.

This is what you’d expect. Not talking about the ‘how’ of the goals they have remained quite opportunistic a set piece, and a defensive error. But we are on a way forward.

Second best goal dif in the league too. Real Madrid 14, Sevilla 12, Real Sociedad 7, :poop: 7

Can’t complain at that. Great win and three points against a tough side in Osasuna who will do okay this season.

Another three points at home to continue our 100 per cent record also and give us a real confidence boost going into a big week of games against Lille and then a small matter of a derby game! Sitting joint top of the league going into it.

Oh and I got my prediction right ! All good.

I wonder what the next manager is going to do with Barcelona, and if we would’ve been better of playing against Koeman’s Barca or the New Barca

It’s great to have YEN back too. Looked sharp even if just on a few minutes. I fancy us to beat Lille midweek at home. Our champions league campaign can really take over Tuesday I feel. Vamos!!

3 points are 3 points, no matter how. I expected a more dangerous Osasuna but they seemed to be too tired from the encounter against RM, that this seemed kind of like a walk in the park.

Whenever the tandem Rakitic and Jordan do fine and are unbothered, the game is too easy. The team has played well in overall, except in the first half for about 20-30 mins where we looked like a Tercera team hoofing the ball around the pitch without any purpose or vision. That was part of the plan I guess…

On to the very important match vs. Lille on Wednesday now. We need more fluidity and creativity in the midfield for that one so hopefully not the same lineup, but who knows what’s on Lope’s mind.

VAMOS!

I feel whoever comes in has a big job. It will take them time to get it right. I think we can beat Barca at home for sure. Playing at nou camp is tougher as our away form not as strong but we may still get a point. As for playing at home though this season I fancy us against nearly anyone in league and also in Europe.

Amazing record. The man knows how to get results. He’s did an incredible job overall. Even if his style of play isn’t to everyone’s liking he has still been massive for us and helped us become a solid side who are regular top 4 contenders and maybe more this season. Well done Julen!

Does anyone know of Delaney picked up a knock? He looked to be in some pain when he went off. I hope it’s just a precaution because the guy was a beast today. He really helps us in the midfield in terms of protecting the back line and is very good on the ball too. I hope to see more of him going forward.

Can’t argue with that. Well done Julen!

Fantastic result however you slice it. I think we could have won by even more but getting the 3 points was the most important thing. Also I just love to see defenders score always have.

Joint top of the table, being just behind on goal difference. Really can’t ask for more than that through the first eleven games of the season.

It is obvious how much the guys love playing for each other and also great to see Ocampos score in particular.

We can do this!

On to Lille
