I don’t see the point in changing coach again, let the chips fall where they may. There needs to be fundamental change in the organisation from cantera to the boardroom as there’s too much wasted potential in this club.

Yeah, sure he comes back I’m out.
Besides, he now thinks himself as a world class coach and would only manage in the premier league, having already turned down Villarreal.
Wolves are currently 12th in the premier league, Gary O’neil doing a decent job with a squad which Lope deemed not good enough as the board could not afford his splurging on crap over-the-hill players.
Gary O’neil > Lope the fraud.

I’m not convinced a change in coach is the answer here either.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m far from convinced with Alonso and question why he was appointed in the first place and the results and performances haven’t been good. The only win he has managed is against a sixth tier side which respectfully doesn’t really count!
There have been glimmers when we’ve played well though, like last night for an hour and against Real when we drew at home. I don’t see that constantly changing the manager is doing us any favours. In the last year we’ve gone through Lope, Sampa, Mendi and Alonso. Four in a year.
That is a symptom of a club unstable on and off the pitch. We need some much needed stability and that starts with sorting the board issues out and maybe riding it out with Alonso rather than bring in another manager who is quite frankly doomed to fail right now whoever he is.

The coach who turned us down after an approach last week has been revealed as Nuno Espiritu Santo.

We need a new coach like we need another hole in our head, as they say. There’s just no logical reason to rush for ANOTHER new coach. Continuity is the only thing we’ve yet to try since 2021.

Hating that new names are always surrounding the club at any moment. It’s almost like we are listening to rumours of the press more than our own plan. Meanwhile throwing money out of the window for fun.
They keep finding shit moments to fire people and think 3 trainers a season is normal.
I’m thinking more and more the club is rotten and possibly corrupt already from the inside. And nothing but heavy cleaning, will resolve anything.
Just ignore it all end this season as it comes. And prepare your plan for this summer. Please. It hasn’t happened last year’s and I doubt they will do it this year.

Just never approach another South American who does not have the slightest idea about the modern European football. The only commmon thing betwern them and La Liga is the language they speak.
Mendilibar at least had a fairly good understanding of the Laliga, having spent years on it.

I think we should stick with Alonso. I suspect our board will fire him before long though.

I can see it happen too, maybe after Villarreal if they are eager or at the end of the CL group to see if we made it 3rd.
Watched the press conference before Villarreal. He’s repetitive but in a way I liked it here especially not looking for exterior excuses, like the directive and management being a mess and the arbitrary decisions harsh or whatever. Look to us and nothing much else, is the best way to get out of the rut.
Also getting asked about the old (if not oldest) average age of the team in CL, if he sees age as problematic. He answers clearly no, saying the older team was better then the younger one for the majority. Even though correct it misses a lot of nuance and you need some youth for different reasons and you need some experienced players for others to elevate a team’s level.
Also I know it’s football, but generally the questions have been of quite a poor level, and I feel a bit sorry for Alonso. Having a bunch of young guys ask the same shit every week.

Diego Alonso’s Sevilla has only been ahead on the scoreboard in 6 of the 630 minutes he has played as the club’s coach in the First Division.

Surely this must be the end for Alonso. There’s more at play here, but it’s a results-oriented business. We’ve been unlucky many times, but having no wins in the league speaks volumes! Not a single clean sheet either.
We need someone steady to shore up that defence and raise our level of play. There’s actual talent on this team and it’s being wasted.
From the coaches i see available, there aren’t any that pique my interest. Might just be a matter of who is the safest bet. I’m ruling out Lopetegui, cause i highly doubt he’d want to work with the management that facilitated his downfall.
Tudor
Villas-Boas
van Nistelrooy
There are others like Gracia & Sanchez Flores, but to me that’s just a speedrun towards relegation. There’s also a few German coaches without jobs, but perhaps the language barrier doesn’t help.

What’s more important, and sad at the same time is that the job of coaching Sevilla FC is now being considered a short term project. It will be very hard to convince serious coaches with long term projects and visions to come and rebuild the squad for the future.
This is what the internal management has brought the club to. Another coach won’t make any huge impact unless something dramatically changes.
As things stand, and I really hate to say it, but… I’d love to see the club get privatized and owned by someone mega wealthy (not the fishy companies that are known to bankrupt clubs) with a proper plan and with the intention of becoming a real force in Spain, in every aspect.
The internal management has totally failed and I do not trust anyone to do their job well after years and years of scandalous managing through incompetent people at helm.
The EL trophies bailed us out but it’s not the answer anymore. The club is slowly sinking, and we will become a mediocre club if things continue at this pace.

If Diego Alonso stays for the Lens game, no matter the result we’ll potential get on that one with him in charge - it means that we have hit rock bottom as a club.
This is the first season in my lifetime as a Sevilla fan that I’ve missed 6-7 matches, the majority of them due to not caring enough to make time for… the passion is not there.
I was about to go watch the match vs. Villarreal in RSP. Had the credit card right in front of me, with the ‘buy’ button ready to be pressed in the website - but something held me back.
I’m not sure if I’ll have the passion and will to continue watching this team in this state. Especially when things can obviously get better (there’s no worse than this… or is the management waiting for us to be relegated to try and act?), but the inaction and incompetency is ruining everything.
FUCKING UNSCRUPULOUS MANAGEMENT, BRING MY BELOVED SEVILLA BACK!

wow i completely agree about missing games because… honestly the team is just hard to watch with alonso coaching.
start from the back, pass it over the wings, cross to yen, repeat. concede a few and maybe (?) if yen is feeling good he’ll score a header idk
didnt watch the game yesterday because i was just not in the mood even though i had high hopes for a good game

Mendi should NEVER have left. He did a great job last season getting us out of a hole and comfortably keeping us up in mid table, as well as winning us another Europa League. The man got us playing with passion again and an identity.
Ok things didn’t start great this season but he should have been given more time. His sacking and subsequent replacement with Alonso is a fine example of the potential consequences of changing a manager. We’ve sunk to new lows not even reached under the dying days of Lope and Sampaoli’s second spell.
This is on the board and those running the club into the ground.
