Talking Points: Lopetegui on improving consistency, defending as a team, opportunity, and believing in his players

Lopetegui on improving consistency

Julen Lopetegui has called on his Sevilla team to improve their consistency after a disappointing start to the season. Sevilla have won just two of their first six La Liga games, and Lopetegui knows that his team needs to start performing better if they want to achieve their goals this season. "We need to be more consistent," Lopetegui said. "We can't afford to have these ups and downs. We need to find a way to win more games and climb up the table."

Defending as a team

Lopetegui also stressed the importance of defending as a team. Sevilla have conceded 10 goals in their first six La Liga games, and Lopetegui knows that his team needs to be more solid defensively if they want to be successful. "We need to defend as a team," Lopetegui said. "We can't just rely on our goalkeeper to save us. Everyone needs to work together to keep the ball out of our net."

Opportunity

Despite Sevilla's poor start to the season, Lopetegui believes that his team still has a lot of potential. Sevilla have a talented squad, and Lopetegui is confident that they can turn things around. "We have a lot of quality in this team," Lopetegui said. "We just need to find a way to put it all together. I believe in this team, and I know that we can achieve great things this season."

Believing in his players

Lopetegui also expressed his belief in his players. The Sevilla coach knows that his players have the talent and the desire to succeed, and he is confident that they will eventually come good. "I believe in my players," Lopetegui said. "I know that they have the quality to be successful. I just need to find a way to get the best out of them."
