Meeting HighlightsFekir's Return
Very motivated, great news for the squad. This is very good for him, especially after a long injury recovery. He hasn't had any problems other than muscle problems in recent weeks. We'll see how it integrates. He won't be there for 90 minutes, we'll see when it's possible for me to get in to play.
Team Status
If we beat Mallorca, we will definitely stay in the European zone, and if we lose, we move away, and in the Europa League it is the same, if we win, we become leaders, and if we lose, it becomes complicated. We had to win the King's Cup and we qualified.
Isco
We will try to beat Mallorca. Hopefully we will succeed and after finishing we will think about the Europa League. Then we will think about the derby for Sevilla. Isco is fully focused on beating Mallorca and hopefully he doesn't get a yellow card.

Manager on MallorcaReturn Trip
It was an adventure. The weather prevented us from having at least one training session yesterday. We looked for formulas like trying to train in Galicia, Madrid and here. But there was no formula to fit into a training session. The players are tired, but that's not an excuse. We have a large staff. We saved Dani Rodríguez, Sergi Darder, Antonio Raíllo, Pablo Maffeo and that's good news. I won't use it as an excuse, but yesterday's session and today's session were a bit spoiled.
Pressure
It's always there. We have to win and we have known this since match day one and we could not do it because we were not effective in both areas. It is true that we have had growth in gaming volume, but it has not translated into results. All professionals in this industry have additional pressure because our work is public and we are resultsx2 focused.
Real Betis
They play very good football, they have a good distribution, they have very quality players, they prioritize attacking play. Getting to their stadium is always complicated. Everyone is suffering there and it won't be easy. We need to be at the optimum concentration level. After Girona, we are playing with a high level of concentration and very seriously. I can't demand more from the team.
