Amongst all those invited to a box suite at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán last Sunday, the head coach of the Spanish national team was one of them. Robert Moreno took time at half-time to speak to the club's cameras. He started by speaking about the support: "People don't realise the importance this atmosphere has on the players; I have played against in with Barcelona and Celta - they are the 12th man and it's brilliant to watch games here".
Having Sevilla heritage in his blood, Moreno remarked that he would like to return to the Sánchez-Pizjuán with the national team: "I would love that, on top of that my father is from Sevilla and supports the team. It would be a great stadium to play in. Not long ago we played in Betis' ground and I know they want to move us around other provences and communities, in order to give a wider range of people a chance to watch their national team. It's something that's up to the RFEF".
He also spoke of Navas, the sole Sevilla player in the last Spanish squad: "His age will be shown on his passport but if we didn't know his age, nobody would be able to guess it. We are delighted to be able to have him and I hope he keeps making Sevilla happy, because he does the same with us in the national team". He was asked, out out curiosity, that if he had the opportunity to 'nationalise' a foreign player from this Sevilla team, he would choose Banega. To finish, he made it clear that he is counting on more players for the first-team Spanish squad: "Our job is to watch them live and not just on the television, because you always see things differently".
