Live thread: Quique Setién's press conference ahead of tomorrow's game with Sevilla.
Setién: "We did not expect to lose Sergi Roberto. To the extent that he can endure the pain, he will be able to return."
Setién: "De Jong had some discomfort and it didn't fully recover. We prefer to not risk him."
Setién: "I still don't see Suárez fit enough for 90 minutes."
Setién: "The return game against Napoli should be played at the Camp Nou, obviously."
Setién: "We have all seen the surprises that football brings. We have to think about overcoming each game and maintaining the advantage."
Setién: "Ansu is a boy who is 17 years old and needs to be managed. There are many things about himself that he doesn't know yet."
Setién: "It's possible for us to benefit from playing without a public in Seville, it depends on how the match goes."
Setién: "Frenkie is a very good footballer, a kid who gives us many things, but we have other players to replace him and I hope that he recovers as soon as possible."
Setién: "Riqui Puig played frankly well. He is a kid who is training very well and has a very good attitude."
Setién: "Dembélé back in August? His recovery is going into the right direction. It remains to be seen if he will be fully fit at the end of the season."
Setién: "Sevilla are a complete side, they're solid and physically well. However, we also know about their weaknesses and we'll try to exploit them."
Setién: "Players like Messi are smart enough to decide when they need to rest. They will warn me if they feel they need to be rotated, although I set the guidelines for when they should play."
Setién: "Ansu, Riqui and Araujo are three very different players but very good guys who bring us things."
Setién: "Griezmann? He is a player who, although he plays on the wing, always has a tendency to go to the centre of the pitch. We never suggest him to stick to the wing, because he is not that type of dribbling player."
That concludes Setién's press conference. End of thread.
