Obviously the doubts were immediately dispelled, because of this shield that surrounds it. is pulling hard, and it reaches deep inside you and it’s very hard not to motivate yourself by looking at it ”, says Monchi, who despite this, he warns. feels more of an illusion than ever before the adjustments to be made to the template.

It was a moment of doubt, a moment where we were selling players, Sarabia, Ben Yedder, new players who came in unknown … Now it seems there are doubts as well. Because he is human. Hey, what do we get this year, something new? I would ask you the same thing I asked you that year, that you don’t doubt, don’t have any doubts, trust “, continued the Sevilla executive.

But not in the first week of September, but in the first week. of July. Trust me, it will be complicated, because improving what we do is not easy. But with the illusion that there is in the board of directors, the illusion that there is in the coaching staff, the illusion that there is in the squad and the illusion that the person who speaks to you have, which I tell you sincerely, after 22 years of planning teams, This is the preseason where I have more desire and more illusion.and it won’t be
easy. That is why I ask you for trust, patience, and most of all that you do not hesitate, we will achieve again, us and you. Do not hesitate.
