As I met manager Lee Reynolds in a Seville cafe over a beer I could sense a calming influence which he hopes can translate to his players. He is adapting to life in Spain and so much so he even turned up with a sombrero but all tongue in cheek.
“I love it here the people are great, the fans have been warming and the intensity in the stadium is great. It took a few weeks but I am settled and hoping I can be a success”, Reynolds said in a confident manner.
Sevilla are in with the big boys Real, Barcelona, Man Utd, Chelsea, PSG and more but the club is happy to be there with such players as Krychowiak, Gameiro, Vitolo, Konoplyanka and Miralles the star names. “The squad is good, we are not Real or Barca but with right dedication, spirit and quality who knows. We have players who can hurt teams in this league”, Reynolds said.
The club has found it hard to recruit new faces to the first team squad with only Vida and Miralles that only additions to that area with all others being added to the youth set up. I asked Lee in view of this has the club changed it’s focus to strengthening the youth set up, “Possible. We worked hard to get some more quality into the first team but a lot of things didn’t happen. We have switched focus a touch and hope some of these will be the stars of the future”
