Who said this goalkeeper was crap?

I admit he was crap last month but today?

Acuna and ocampos were impressive in that half. YEN looking sharp again. We playing decent but Bilbao are never easy. They well organised and dangerous on counter.

We just have to be patient. Suso and papu played decent too and find good pockets of space. Was a very competitive game but we were on top but couldn’t convert.

Big 45 minutes coming up. Vamos!

I thought the same but the replay shows the defender had the touch.

Too many missed chances, some better and some half-chances, but still… we should’ve scored in the first half. It can cost us with this tricky Bilbao team, although we’re much better than them and totally dominating, you never know.

We should still aim for more than one goal to be sure, but anything will do as soon as we get the 3 points. Not winning tonight against this uninspired and weaker than usual Bilbao side is unacceptable.

Bilbao’s defender had the touch but YEN already made his mind to pass rather than shoot, even if the defender wouldn’t have touched the ball. Quite weird judgement there by YEN.

Sevilla vastly superior, no need for Jordan because Raki could be the difference in this game.

Hmm… Raki seemed lost sometimes in the midfield but I don’t think Jordan could contribute something more than him in this match. Maybe Oliver later on? I don’t know… the midfield needs a bit more fluidity because we’re heavily relying on the flanks. We’ve also been a bit susceptible to counters.

two thirds of the time, thats a penalty no? hand was a bit loose. Carlos latest penalty against was lighter. But okey.

Damn - first chance for RFEF to chime in on the title race there? 100% handball.

Sorry but no, that’s a slur on me.

What do you expect? They don’t want us to win the league

It was a penalty for Madrid or Barcelona. But we have Gil Manzano as referee and Del ‘Zero’ Grande on VAR.

This is going to be the most important half hour of the season for Sevilla. A draw and Sevilla are probably out of the race.

Call me pessimistic, but I don’t think we have any chance at the title. La liga is corrupt and will do their best to stop us, no matter what. If we play against 12 men every match, what chance do we have?

Well you can’t just blame RFEF for us not creating much more. Without looking at Barcelona or Real. Terrible mentality in my opinion.

Good hit from Rakitic, no wondergoal today yet.

Suso well on the ball, but all but one crosses were behind or short unfortunately.
