			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After Sunday&#8217;s 3-2 win against Mallorca Sevilla now sit 3 points behind Atlético for the coveted 4th place in La Liga, and more importantly the last Champions League spot.  Isaiah gives the rundown on Sevilla&#8217;s last 6 games in La Liga, and I&#8217;ll go into a bit of the preview later on this week.  </p>
<p><strong>Luis Fabiano Blows Up, Calms Down</strong></p>
<p>The new talk on the block is about the whole Luis Fabiano blowup on Sunday.  For those of you who didn&#8217;t hear, Luis Fabiano was none to happy about being subbed off at halftime in the win against Mallorca.  Fabiano said after the match that he would rather sit on the bench then be subbed off during the game.  </p>
<p>Well, needless to say that didn&#8217;t sit well with most of the <em>sevillistas</em>, especially Kanouté who came out against Fabiano saying he would need to get used to it if this happened.  </p>
<p>Today, on El DesMarque, Renato spoke for the <a href="http://www.eldesmarque.es/content/view/12762/40/">entire team</a>, saying &#8216;Luis talked with us and to the coach and everything is fixed.&#8217;  </p>
<p><span id="more-101"></span></p>
<p>In AS today, in a <a href="http://www.as.com/futbol/articulo/futbol-jimenez-luis-fabiano-obligados/dasftbpri/20080416dasdaiftb_30/Tes">article entitled</a> &#8216;Jimenez and Luis Fabiano, obligated to make up&#8217; LuFa was quoted as saying &#8216;Everything is fixed.  There&#8217;s nothing more to talk about.&#8217;  </p>
<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time LuFa has spoken out against Sevilla &#8216;misters&#8217;.  He gave Juande Ramos some stick when he sat the bench a few games during his reign in Sevilla.  But, it always ended with a sit down, and an a-ok.  </p>
<p>I for one am glad this didn&#8217;t escalate AND that it&#8217;s apparently all water under the bridge.  </p>
<p><strong>Argentinian Sevillistas Arrive in Sevilla</strong></p>
<p>In case you didn&#8217;t know (and I&#8217;m sure most don&#8217;t) Sevilla have a school in Argentina, called &#8216;la Escuela de Fútbol Tucumán Ramón Rodríguez Monchi&#8217; (named after my FAVORITE Sevillista, Monchi).  </p>
<p>3 months ago, 2 players from Tucuman were <a href="http://sevillafcdetucuman.blogspot.com/2008/04/el-sabado-sera-el-dia.html">chosen to come to Sevilla</a> and have their chance with the club, see the city, meet the players, and take it all in (even La Feria).</p>
<p><a href='http://sevilla.theoffside.com/files/2008/04/1.jpg' title='1.jpg'><img align='center' border='1' style='margin-right:7px' src='http://sevilla.theoffside.com/files/2008/04/1.thumbnail.jpg' alt='1.jpg' /></a><br />
(Here&#8217;s a picture of the <em>che&#8217;s</em> upon their arrival in Sevilla.  </p>
<p><strong>Injury Updates</strong></p>
<p><strong>Renato</strong> will <a href="http://www.marca.com/edicion/marca/futbol/1a_division/sevilla/es/desarrollo/1112254.html">make his return</a> to the squad this weekend against Almeria after being out with a strained calf muscle.    </p>
<p><strong>Escude</strong> will still be out against Almeria with a variety of injuries</p>
<p><strong>Drago</strong>is out as well with still problems with his right leg (at least from what I can remember)</p>
<p><strong>Kanouté</strong> is banged up after last weekend&#8217;s game, but will be back.  </p>
<p><strong>Chevantón</strong> is still out after having surgery on his left knee over a month ago.  </p>
<p>That&#8217;s all for now Sevillistas, I&#8217;ll see you on Thursday with some new information.  </p>
<p>PS Diego Capel is NOT going to Real Madrid, in case you all were wondering! =)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sevilla take to the pitch against Steaua Bucaresti on Wednesday, hopefully with the same passion that we had against Real Madrid.  </p>
<p><strong>Convocatoria </strong></p>
<p>Palop, De Sanctis, Boulahrouz, Daniel, Drago, Lolo, Mosquera, Hinkel, Martí, Renato, Poulsen, Keita, De Mul, Diego Capel, Jesús Navas, Adriano, Luis Fabiano, Kanouté y Koné.</p>
<p>Again Manuel Jiménez brings up another player from Sevilla Atlético, this time Lolo, a 20 year old defender who is the captain of the Segunda B team.  </p>
<p><strong>Injury Ward</strong></p>
<p>Javi Navarro, Escudé, Maresca, Duda, Crespo, Fazio, Maresca and Boulahrouz. </p>
<p><strong>Boulahrouz</strong> was left off the team today as Sevilla departed for Romania due to a injury to his abductor muscle.   <strong>Crespo</strong> will be out a month thanks to Diarra&#8217;s shot that fractured his Right cheekbone. <strong>Fazio</strong> will only be out for a short while as there was no tear in his abductor muscle.    </p>
<p>Sevilla have been playing well as of late after what some people thought would be a lull with the departure of Juande.  I for one did not want to see Juande go, but now that there is no sense of the unknown at the club at the hands of Manuel Jiménez, Sevilla are playing with renewed vigor and charisma.  That Real Madrid game was the best game they have played all season and I look for them to carry that on through Romania and into the next round of La Liga play.  </p>
<p>Also, Drago resigned with the club until 2011 on Monday.  His quote to Sevilla Radio said</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;si me hubiera ido al Newcastle hubiera ganado muchísimo más dinero que aquí. No firmo por Newcastle porque es difícil ganar algo, sé que no voy a jugar ni la Champions ni voy a levantar un título. En el Sevilla siempre hay ambición, siempre hay ganas de ganar, por eso me quedo aquí, con mi familia, con la mejor afición del mundo, con mis compañeros y con este club ambicioso&#8221;.</p></blockquote>
<p>Basically he said he could have made a lot more money going to Newcastle, but he stayed in Sevilla because there are always trying to win, amongst the fact that they have the best fan base in the world.  Of course we do, we are Sevilla.  </p>
<p>Two more things to add into the post one is this great picture I made for the Sevilla group (Sorry Corey)</p>
<p><a href='http://sevilla.theoffside.com/files/2007/11/arrogance_122-copy.jpg' title='arrogance_122-copy.jpg'><img align='left' border='1' style='margin-right:7px' src='http://sevilla.theoffside.com/files/2007/11/arrogance_122-copy.jpg' alt='arrogance_122-copy.jpg' /></a></p>
<p></br></p>
<p>And in case anyone was wondering, Buffalo is getting it&#8217;s first lake effect storm of the season.  </p>
<p>Here&#8217;s to more days like this.  </p>

<p>Juande Ramos has <a href="http://goal.com/en/articolo.aspx?contenutoid=460021">officially left Sevilla</a> for Tottenham.  <a href="http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2007/10/27/sports/EU-SPT-SOC-Sevilla-Jimenez.php">Manolo Jimenez was installed</a> as Sevilla&#8217;s coach today.  Jimemez is a Sevilla legend, playing in 354 games over 14 years for the club and was most recently the coach of Sevilla Atlético for the last seven years. </p>
<p>As I left the house last night I really thought to myself that he wasn&#8217;t going to leave for England.  La Liga is thought by many to be the best league in the world.  So, why would Juande leave the defending UEFA Cup, Copa del Rey, and Copa de España champs to a Tottenham team who is in 18th place in the Premiership?  </p>
<p>To be perfectly honest, I don&#8217;t know.  He says in the letter that it&#8217;s impossible for him and for his profession that he doesn&#8217;t go to London.  I don&#8217;t agree with that statement about his profession, as Sevilla are not a small club and he is not coaching for peanuts.   </p>
<p>Manuel Jimenez&#8217;s lineup for his first game as Sevilla gaffer are </p>
<p>Palop, De Sanctis, Daniel, Boulahrouz, Adriano, Fazio, Crespo, Dragutinovic, Martí, Renato, Poulsen, Keita, Jesús Navas, Diego Capel, Luis Fabiano, Koné, De Mul y Kanouté.</p>
<p>The most notable selection is Crespo, a 20 year old defender from Sevilla Atlético. I don&#8217;t know anything about him, but will look it up later on.  </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll leave the game preview up to Oscar at the Valencia Offside.  </p>
<p>Below is the letter that Juande Ramos posted on his website.  It is a goodbye to all of the Sevilla fans.  Translate it at your liking, but if anyone really wants me to translate it, I&#8217;ll do it when I get sometime.  </p>
<p>Querido amigo sevillista:</p>
<p>Hoy quiero dirigirme especialmente a ti. En un momento donde los sentimientos y las emociones alteran la rutina, resulta muy difícil dilucidar qué camino hay que escoger. Para mí el Sevilla F.C. representa la época personal y profesional más importante de mi vida. Todo lo que yo he recogido de su afición, directiva y jugadores es incalculable, como imposible de describir en palabras. Mi gratitud será eterna.</p>
<p>Por eso, esta decisión de dejar el conjunto hispalense que ahora tomo representa la elección más complicada de un profesional. Yo soy un trabajador, nunca he tenido una proyección profesional sencilla. Mi camino se inició tras mi obligada retirada como futbolista por una lesión en edad demasiado temprana. Ahí comprendí que sólo el sacrificio podría ayudarme a crecer. Cada paso que he dado siempre ha estado acompañado de un gran esfuerzo. Todas son las categorías en las que he tenido la dicha de trabajar: juvenil, tercera, segunda B, segunda, primera.</p>
<p>Después de la excelente racha de nuestro Sevilla F.C. el destino ha querido que se cruce en mi sendero un reto profesional que supone el más ambicioso de los que jamás he recibido. Pero ¿y el Sevilla F.C.? Para mí el equipo de Nervión representa algo más que un conjunto donde entrenar. Mi vida personal y profesional está vinculada en torno a esta ciudad tan alegre como humana, tan sensible como enriquecedora. Pero también tengo una familia que ha sufrido por mi profesión por esa característica de efímera y titubeante que marca el depender de resultados.</p>
<p>Los malos marcadores condenan al técnico y a veces, aunque resulta insólito, un entrenador también puede recibir una propuesta de trabajo irrechazable a mitad de temporada. Y este reto a mi me ha llegado ahora. No en junio, en octubre.</p>
<p>La pasión de todos vosotros no entenderá de mi emoción y decisión, algunos incluso os enojareis, pero hay veces que es irrechazable la oportunidad que te brinda la vida. Hay trenes que no tienen retorno aunque no paren en el arcén en el momento más adecuado. Y hoy, amigos, os aseguro que en este caso, después de cerca de veinte años de carrera sería imperdonable no aceptar un proyecto que representa la posibilidad de crecer desorbitadamente a una persona humilde como yo que ya ha cumplido la cincuentena. Es una propuesta profesional que supone la culminación a mucho esfuerzo y sacrificio personal y de mi entorno.</p>
<p>El Sevilla F.C. es mucho más grande que un técnico o un jugador. La grandeza de su afición es algo innato, es imposible de concebir su pasión y entrega si no se convive con ella; por eso estoy convencido que la profesionalidad y honestidad de todos los miembros de esta centenaria entidad van a aprovechar esta singular coyuntura de mi adiós para enderezar mucho más el rumbo de una temporada que comenzó dubitativa. Yo sólo he sido una parte de un engranaje que funciona excepcionalmente y que va a obtener el mérito del triunfo seguro de nuevo esta temporada.</p>
<p>Los profesionales son extraordinarios, la perspectiva es enorme. El Sevilla F.C. va a ser todavía mucho más grande tras mi marcha. Ese es mi más sincero deseo porque el profesional disfruta y padece pero la persona siente y vive con estima y pasión. Mi corazón se queda en Nervión pero por mi familia y mi profesión es imposible no marchar a Londres. A la familia roja y blanca del Sánchez Pizjuán sólo deciros que podré ir muy lejos pero, amigo sevillista, te aseguro, que nadie estará nunca tan cerca de vosotros.</p>
<p>Adios Juande, y buen viaje.  </p>
