La Liga 2020-21 season preview: Where do Sevilla stand?

0

Julen Lopetegui has done well to make fans forget about his disappointing stint at Real Madrid. As a result of the 19/20 Europa League success, the Spanish tactician has proven that he can deliver in the big competitions.

Along with the success in Europe, he also managed to deliver a top four finish to the club sealing their place in this season’s Champions League. Let’s take a look at how they will fare this season.

Key Players

  1. Lucas Ocampos
  2. Jesus Navas
  3. Ivan Rakitic
  4. Diego Carlos
  5. Jules Kounde

Although he is well into his thirties, captain Jesus Navas is showing no signs of slowing down. Lucas Ocampos is a great young attacker who can provide the offensive output needed for winning matches from the right.

With the incoming signing of Ivan Rakitic, the midfield looks very promising for the six time Europa League winners. The defense is well taken care of by Diego Carlos and Jules Kounde, both of whom were pivotal in the side’s European success.

Winning Points

You can always identify a good side by their defensive record. In the same vein, Sevilla are one of the best teams in La Liga right now as proven by their defensive record last season. They only conceded 34 goals in their 38 league matches, the third lowest behind champions Real Madrid and their local rivals, Atletico Madrid.

Sevilla is a very balanced side that is also a threat going forward. Their performances in the late stages of the Europa League were enough to prove that they can deliver in the big matches.

Challenges

Arguably the biggest challenge this season comes from replacing outgoing transfers. Real Madrid loanee Sergio Reguilon and veteran midfielder Ever Banega will be extremely hard to replace.

Although they were a very defensively solid side last season, their true challenge is replicating the previous season’s record. In addition, they do need the creative spark in midfield to make up for the departing Ever Banega. That is where Oscar Rodriguez, another Real loanee, becomes important.

Transfer Activity

Sevilla has done business in the market already. Ever Banega and Sergio Reguilon have departed the club. It seems like the responsibility of making the plays will fall on the shoulders of incoming loanee Oscar Rodriguez. They have also managed to sign Suso from AC Milan and Ivan Rakitic from Barcelona.

A very vital piece of business in the transfer market that Sevilla must carry out is the signing of a left back. Sergio Reguilon is one of the most promising young left backs in the world right now.

His absence is most certainly to be felt in the defensive part of the club’s game. Sevilla would be wise to add some quality in that position as they only have one left-back in their squad right now, Sergio Escudero.

Predicted Finish: 4th

Riding on their sixth Europa League title victory, Lopetgui’s side looks strong contenders to finish in the top four once again. While they don’t really possess the quality to challenge for the title just yet, another top-four finish would go a long way in providing them with the financial backing and the opportunity to lure much bigger names to the club.

As far as functionalities are concerned the watch will be able to keep track of steps, distance, calories, and heart rate including the dynamic heart rate monitoring and it can identify the activity you’re doing automatically such as whether you’re walking or running. Other than that there will be other basic features that can be found on most of the smartwatches such as music control, camera shutter, call notification and find your phone feature is also expected to arrive with the Watch S Pro.

‘Your life is changed forever’: Brendon McCullum recalls DADA’s words regarding his famous knock of 158 in IPL 2008

Remember the first match ever in IPL, KKR v/s RCB. The legendary kiwi hard-hitter Brendon McCullum smashed 158 runs from just 73 deliveries against Royal Challengers Bangalore. After that match captain, Sourav Ganguly told McCullum, “Your life is changed forever”. After 12 years of that event, Kolkata Knight Riders head coach Brendon McCullum has recalled the statement of Dada.

Speaking on KKR’s website, Brendon McCullum revealed that it took him years to understand the gravity and importance of Sourav Ganguly’s words. He said: “DADA SAID, ‘YOUR LIFE IS CHANGED FOREVER’, AND I DIDN’T QUITE KNOW WHAT HE MEANT AT THE TIME, BUT (IN HINDSIGHT), I 100% AGREE WITH HIM.”

Remembering that match, McCullum shared some of his beautiful memories. He said that nothing was preplanned. the management was just looking for a blistering start of the tournament and Brendon gave them just that.

Brendon McCullum also added that KKR is all about representing the spirit and the passion of Bengal towards this game. This year the team will miss the crowd of the Eden, but surely KKR will try to play a brand of cricket which will be representative of the people of Bengal this IPL season. He said: “WE’RE TRYING TO PLAY A STYLE OF CRICKET WHICH IS A GREAT REPRESENTATION OF THE PEOPLE OF BENGAL AND ALSO SHAH RUKH, JAY (MEHTA) AND ALL THOSE INVOLVED IN THE FRANCHISE. HOPEFULLY, WE WILL BE ABLE TO BE SUCCESSFUL, BECAUSE I THINK WE’VE GOT THE RIGHT TEAM FOR IT AS WELL.”

KKR won the title two times 2012 and 2014. This time, McCullum is very much confident that the team will lift the trophy once again. He is currently the head coach of the Trinbago Knight Riders in the ongoing CPL, so when the tournament will be over, he will join his team in UAE.

The signing of Doucoure shows Everton are really strengthening their squad this season

Everton has managed to sign Abdoulaye Doucoure from Watford on a deal worth up to 23 million pounds. This move comes as a quickfire signing, having already signed Allan from Napoli and James Rodriguez from Real Madrid for a combined 55 million pounds. Ahead of the 2020/21 season, Carlo Ancelotti has certainly attained a dream midfield trio and has been backed well by the Everton board. Of course with such investment, comes the need to fulfill high scale objectives, and now qualifying for the Europa League will be on the cards for the blue side of Merseyside.

The three signings are signed with the intention of playing particularly defined roles. As part of Carlo’s desired 4-2-3-1 formation, Doucoure and Allan would look to form a double pivot in the middle of the park and stop counters. While Allan would mostly sit back and look to intercept and recycle possession, Doucoure would play the box-to-box midfielder role by dropping back in defense time and again as well as surging forward to help with the attacks.

Meanwhile, James will look to play the centerpiece #10 role as an attacking midfielder, who will be responsible for set-piece execution and visioning passes in tight spaces. Additionally, if this trilateral partnership does not work, they could bring in the likes of Sigurdson and Gomes to take the initiative and create something.

Everton might have completed most of their signings in the market this summer, because the attack and midfield now look stacked with options. The signing of youth player Niels Nkounkou from Marseille will look to provide cover for Lucas Digne while loanee return Jonjoe Kenny will look to provide competition to captain Coleman at right back. They might however be looking at a backup winger who can come off the bench and make some impact. Regardless, Everton now look like a menacing side who will now prove to be a handful to all their rivals.
