Next game on Thursday

The last visits to Betis

[nitraM]

Only 1 loss? Not bad lets not mess up that nice record.

[Carril]

So far, we've played better away so hopefully it continues against Betis in Sevilla.

My lineup:

------------Fabricio
Juanfran----Arribas----Sidnei-----Navarro
------------Mosquera
------Borges---------Fajr
Fede/Jonas-------------Luis Alberto
-------------Lucas


I think if Fabricio is healthy, he should get start this game. He is the better goalie undoubtedly and Lux hasn't played well enough to secure the spot IMO. Yesterday, I think Fabricio would've saved AT LEAST one of the goals. The first 2 were crosses I felt that Lux should've intercepted with his fist and in the 1 on 1, he is late to come out and reduce space for the shooter.

Laure killed it at the end of last season, but so far he has been shaky and his marking in the first 2 goals yesterday was atrocious. I'm not a big fan of Juanfran either, but I would push him to RB in Laure's place and put in an attacking player like Fede or Jonás Gutierrez on the right side.

But even Juanfran is not considered good in defence, so you might have the same issue. Plus he is the Captain

It's unfair to judge him by only one match. He has been solid. Even Nesta and Maldini were bad sometimes.

You all know Laure is not good at attack. So I don't expect him anymore in attack.

We have to cases which are considered similar

Alex and Laure, both players play with heart and high spirit yet no real quality compared to the quality of other players. The issue with laure is not about the offensive work but the defensive one, sometimes he scares you with his moves when the rival attacks from his side.

I think that Fabricio must play, if he is ready. Also maybe it can be positive to switch our side defenders (for Juanfran and Luisinho) and see 4-2-3-1 with Fajr alongside Mosquera, Lucas as playmaker and Riera upfront.

Thats suicidal against a team like Betis in their Arena

[depooor]

Seriously can anyone tell me whu Haris is not called at all!!

[D.TRISTAN]

With Juan Dominguez, no victory.

[abdul001]

we should use our true striker

Haris has Borges, Mosquera, Fajr, Bergantiños and J Dominguez ahead of him for a position. He will have it tough to get minutes this year. We'll likely let him go in the winter.

I'm happy to see Fabricio and Jonas getting their first call-ups

I'm not sure what the changes will be, but we definitely won't be repeating lineup this time. My best bet is:

--------------------Lux
Juanfran----Arribas----Sidnei-----Navarro
---------------Mosquera
-----J Dominguez---------Fajr
Fede------------------------------Luisinho
-------------Lucas

I think Lusinho + Navarro is a sure bet as Joaquin is they're most dangerous weapon, and having 2 defensive players will help stop him.

Are you sure Luis Alberto won't play - he is on fire

We already know that but can one seriously compare Juando or Alex with Haris!! The guy is way better than both players ( big fan of Alex)

I am no coach but any coach can see the difference in level

In the end, it is likely he will start. I knew Luisinho was going to start too but most sources are saying it will be for Navarro's spot at LB. So it would make sense that Luis Alberto repeat on the left side in attack.
