From our football correspondent Crisis

Match

Chastening afternoon for Sevilla

A 0‑3 beating by Celta was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.

Squad

Arnau Tenas in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Sevilla this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Rubén Vargas

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

A late step up for Kike Salas

At 25 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

Boardroom

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Sevilla

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Match

3 matches without a goal for Sevilla

The chances are being made and something is happening between the making and the finishing. 3 matches now, and the anxiety in the ground arrives a little earlier every week.

Market

One of our own: Carlos Solís joins the Sevilla first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Carlos Solís is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

Sevilla promote Alejandro Fuentes from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Alejandro Fuentes has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market

Julen Caballero steps up from the Sevilla academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Julen Caballero has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

In brief
