I think that is exactly what happened. He seems a lovely guy and the players seem to like him, but it isn't working at the moment. I mentioned earlier that I think the EL is a hindrance with a new manager.
La Liga 2017/18

Yep. He was a CF.
Aduriz to the rescue. 1-1.
Missed a goal again. I am one of those pain in the arses who channel hop and can miss every goal in every game in the process on occassion. Don't know what we would do without him. He has just signed a new contract so we will have him for a while longer yet.
Yeah, sorry. A striker.
1-1 FT. At least one point for Bilbao.
Better than nothing and showed a lot of spirit.
Betis 2-0 down at HT against Eibar. Setien seems to have lost his magic touch.
You can say that again. They are 4-0 down now.
Make that 5-0. I am bemoaning my teams defending, but Betis are awful. That is 25 goals conceded. They can score goals, that is what has saved them so far.
5-0 FT for Eibar. Wow!
Celta Vigo-Leganes today.
Match 13 | 24/27 November - Valencia v Barca
FRIDAY 24TH NOVEMBER
So, Barcelona are top with 34 points, Valencia are second on 30. Real Madrid and Atletico are on 24. Who would have guessed that back in August?
Just to add a few more numbers. The top two are unbeaten (so are Atletico - they just keep drawing) Valencia have scored 32 goals so far this season, to Barca's 33. As I say, who would have guessed that!
- Celta Vigo 20:00 Leganés
- Alavés 12:00 Eibar
- Real Madrid 15:15 Malaga
- Real Betis 17:30 Girona
- Levante 19:45 Atlético Madrid
- Deportivo La Coruña 11:00 Athletic Bilbao
- Real Sociedad 15:15 Las Palmas
- Villarreal 17:30 Sevilla
- Valencia 19:45 Barcelona
- Espanyol 20:00 Getafe

If Barca won the league would be over. Who would have guessed it after the Spanish Super Cup?
I like you...
proper football man..always looking forward to your posts here.
Cheers mate!
I wouldn't say that. The last two seasons has saw Barca (2016) and Madrid almost lose leads of around 8-9 points.
I'm stunned to see Madrid this far back though. If Valencia can win this weekend or at least draw I do think they are the main contenders (especially with no Europe) but I don't count out Madrid going on a great run of 9-10 wins at some point.
Celta Vigo up at HT against Leganes.
almost being the key word
As for us, well...we hammered valencia, we hammered betis, we didn't play well but still created enough against levante, and got only 2 points to show for it. Strangely enough you can say we've also been unlucky with the refs
Celta win in the end.
Fancy Valencia to get at least a point.
Great to see they've finally settled down after a chaotic couple of years fighting relegation. La Liga needs a strong Valencia at the top end of the table. Made some really good signings for once in the window like Kongdobia, Guedes, Andreas Pereria etc which has raised the quality of their first 11.
Will qualify for the Champions league imo. Sevilla just aren't as strong as previous seasons and likes of Villareal are inconsistent.

I almost wouldn't be surprised if Valverde played for the draw, with the lead they have it would be a good result.
Why? Just kill the league off now to focus on the Champions League.
zidane keeps not making sense with llorente and ceballos....
this was last season's stuff now
Karim. 1-0 Real.
Isn't Malaga owned by a Sheikh btw..?
Yes. For several years actually.
GET IN! MALAGA!
yes, for several years. One of the lower members of the Qatari royal family iirc. They're PSG's poor cousin
CASEMITO!
Kroos with two assists today

fecking Farcid FFS! 2-1 with the man who never gets sent off.
benzeMALO...
Real 2-1 up at HT against Malaga.
The Keeper saves everything from Ronaldo, not possible.
Ref to the rescue
In all honesty how are we not up by 4? Malaga are pathetic
