Six points out of six since Joaquín Caparrós' arrival. Something has changed since the Utrerian retook the reigns at the Sánchez-Pizjuán, as the points have proved and even as players are reporting. Pablo Sarabia, following a visit to a Children's Hospital in Seville, was the latest to recognise the Caparrós effect: "I think we are reflecting the team that the coach wants... I think he's fundamentally changed the outlook of the whole team. The team was perhaps a bit disillusioned and I think that the boss has brought in fresh air, a winning mentality and that excitement that makes us believe".
On the win yesterday: "It was a huge joy for all Sevillistas. Having a bad time of it like we were, three points to rid us of that was fundamental". "I thought they did really well. I saw a block, all together, with intensity and bite - at the end of the day that's what we need. We can lose any match but if we fight like we did yesterday then we'll be closer to success".
