Sevilla, Monchi: “Roma are a team I know well. They are very competitive”.


Former Roma and current Sevilla sporting director Ramon Monchi spoke to the Spanish club’s official website about next month’s side between the two sides.

“Roma are a team I know well, they made changes in the summer and at winter, but they will demand a lot of us. They are very competitive, have a very good squad and a very important record, without a doubt they will be a very important obstacle,” said Monchi.


The Spaniard also offered his thought on the one-off format of the Europa League for the remainder of the competition: “I can’t give an exact stat on who is favoured or damaged by playing just one match. It’s a different format, it will demand a lot of all of us because we’re playing for life or death in four matches across a fortnight, with no margin for error. The ability to concentrate, motivate and recover will be fundamental”.
