“I’m more concerned that the team has a good defensive line, stay with a clean sheet and be solid behind, so that the rest of the lines are comfortable with the defense, which is what makes you grow more as a team,” argued Sergio Ramos, who played fully in the first two games since he arrived at Sevilla, both at the Sánchez Pizjuán, against Las Palmas. in LaLiga and the French Lens in the Champions League.
Rhythm and speed
The 37-year-old from Seville, after those two meetings, did not travel to Pamplona to face Osasuna last Saturday (0-0), due to muscular overload, and was on the bench without playing last Tuesday during the visit of Almeria (5-1).
Asked about his current physical and sporting condition after spending the entire summer working alone, he stressed that he does not feel “bad at all, quite the opposite.” Still, he considers that he requires “that process of pick up minutes, rhythm and speed with the passing of the games”, but that he is “well, in training and group dynamics and accumulating minutes and games.”
