there are several possibilities related to Seville decline in performance. first, Seville is having a hard time with matches this season because there are so many different styles of play from other teams, so they find it difficult to compete, and it is likely that Seville will become stronger if they play against top teams like the match against Atletico Madrid.
today worries are indeed very natural when Sevilla plays against a weak team but can not win that match and worry more about the following week Sevilla will have to compete with a strong team like Atletico Madrid which makes fans skeptical about Sevilla performance.

it will be a tough job for the under pressure Luis Mendilibar to immediately improve the form of Sevilla players and increase stability in the Seville team and it is likely that if the next match fails again there may be a warning for this coach and even worse the coach will be sacked. but for me firing this coach is not the best way because I believe this coach has a good plan even though he just learned the best strategy.

Every player in Barcelona's attack and midfield performed well in this match. They played well. Otherwise four goals against Villarreal would not have been possible. In particular I want to talk about Torres. Excellent performance by this young Barcelona striker.Pedri missed the match due to injury. Barcelona might have been able to perform better if Pedri was with the squad. Barcelona's overall performance was very good so they won. However, Barcelona's defense needs to be strengthened. Barcelona's match strategy is quite good. This team has the potential to do well in the Champions League as well if the performance of the team's players is consistent.

Barcelona was able to maintain a winning streak by gaining 3 points in the match against Villarreal. Barcelona, ​​who played with a perfect squad, tried to put strong pressure on Villarreal in the first half but the hosts were able to put up an interesting fight in this match. Barcelona took an early lead in the first half but Villarreal equalized until the first half ended 2-2. And in the second half all the surprises happened and barcelona could make the host lose hope of gaining full points after Lewandowski's goal made Barcelona lock in victory in this match.

There is no weak team in this match but the strength and depth of the team makes a significant difference to their quality. Barcelona is filled with many high-quality players so we have no doubts about their ability to make a big impact on the outcome of every game.

What I liked in this match was that Lewandowski was placed in the middle of 2 young players where Gavi and Lamine Yamal really trusted very well.
It looks like Lamine Yamal will now be one of the potential players for Barcelona in terms of his age and progress in playing.
It's just that Xavi's handling at this time must be right, Ansu used to be someone good but the longer he doesn't get the trust of playing minutes and don't let something like this also happen to Lamine Yamal because he still really needs trust and minutes to play.

On the other hand, the score was good enough and I like the final score.

Why praising Barcelona for coming from behind to score two unreplied goals that helped them beat Villareal yesterday in the Spanish La Liga match away at Villareal, we should also talk about how they trailed behind in a game they were two goals up in the early stages of the first half.
The Barcelona defense needs to improve from what we saw yesterday or be ready to concede numerous number of goals when they face clubs with higher attacking force than that of Villareal. Xavi Hernandez for a fact is doing well but improve his team's defence

Villarreal is not an easy team to beat and there has been an improvement in the team that lost their first game against Real Betis. They won their second game and gave Barcelona a strong battle. The Yellow Submarine scored three goals in 24 minutes but lost the game because of poor defending. Although they lost there are signs of improvement from their last games.

The performance of Lamine Yamal in Estadio de la Ceramica made me question his age. The 16-year-old prodigy is a wonder to behold. His strength and coordination will make one think that he is above sixteen. He has shown that he has a great future. Ansu Fati and Lewandowski had some opportunities for Barca to score but they failed to deliver. It's too early to judge these strikers but they need to step up their games. Yamal deserved the MOTM and that big huge from Lewandowski.

They defended poorly but they played against a good attacking side. Barca has had two clean sheets before the game against Cadiz and Getafe, I think Xavi would have to make a few adjustments and good news is that they got the three points.

It should be noted here that Barcelona did not fall apart after three consecutive goals conceded and were able to come together and win, which only added to the beauty of the match. Barcelona played great on offense, but the defense is certainly not champion. The champion should not concede such goals and it is good that Barça has talents like Gavi, De Jong and Ferran Torres and it looks like Xavi is uncovering another very young talent in the form of Lamine Yamal, who broke Ansu Fati's record and became the youngest assist writer in La Liga.

It's quite surprising to see how Sevilla are in the three matches they've played, and Sevilla is the only team that hasn't managed to get a single point and see them at the bottom of the list like they weren't the team that won the European league last season. Sevilla is having problems on all fronts, that's why they haven't managed to win a single game, so facing Atletico Madrid next is like a nightmare for them because maybe they will lose again and be the fourth defeat in a row. The defeat that they might experience will open up opportunities for the Sevilla coach to get a sack.



In the course of time, all teams that are considered weak and are not considered capable of competing for the championship title will start in their proper positions because in many matches these teams will begin to experience difficulties in maintaining performance either because of the material of their players is not so good that when there are those who are injured or absent from playing because of the accumulation of cards they will start to get a bad result.
Girona was quite good last season, but I think they will only compete with other clubs for the European zone, for the title it will only be between Real Madrid and Barcelona or also Atletico Madrid.

This season Barcelona has yet to find its best form of play. Xavi must work extra to be able to find Barca's style of play that should be. The fans were of course very grateful for the victory over Villarreal, but they were very worried about seeing their team fall behind even though they finally made a comeback.

I see something that Xavi needs to evaluate which is defence. The Blaugrana's defenders are still uncoordinated and very easy for opponents to penetrate, such a condition is very risky if a solution is not immediately found. Meanwhile, on the attack, Xavi might have been a little relieved because Lewandowski and his friends were able to appear very cohesive.

It's very attractive game. Villareal was strong enough in giving barcelona a hard game. Barcelona needs to dominate a half of field before the club was able making so many attacks against villareal.
Some mistakes being made by villareal. What a significant result from barcelona. Impressive performance from yamal. This 16 years old guy has been performing even better compared with raphinha.
It's a magic to see that 16 years old was able performing like a world class player. No raphinha but yes for yamal. Raphinha was not even better than yamal.

It was a shock, I started to panic when the score was 2-2 and when Barcelona were 3-2 down I thought there was no hope for them to turn things around but what I thought was wrong, this game was absolutely incredible, both teams made a comeback, Villarreal able to turn things around when they lost 2 goals but before the match ended Barcelona again turned things around to 4-3.
The match was quite fierce, but I highlighted Barcelona's performance in this match who were careless in the middle of the first half, they seemed to have lost their direction of play and their back line was not working well.
Even though they won, this was not a good performance from Barcelona.

There are always no underdogs who have played quite well at the start of the season, this season it's Girona, but I'm not so sure that they will be consistent.

Barcelona managed to bring home three points from the Villarreal Headquarters in a dramatic way, Barcelona, which had a 0-2 lead over Villarreal, was surprised by 3 goals scored by Villarreal players into the goal escorted by Ter Stegen which made the score turn 3-2. The fighting spirit of the Barcelona players who never subsided made them able to turn the score around to 3-4 as well as being the final score in this match.

There are several interesting notes from Barcelona success in winning its second win this season, Lamine Yamal, although he didn't score, became the star of the field this time. His movements were able to trouble the opponent's defense, he also scored one Assist and was chosen as the MOTM in this match due to his good performance.

On the other hand, Barcelona's defense is in the spotlight because it conceded three goals in this match, Xavi, who was present in the stands, must see this as a problem that needs to be fixed. Apart from that, the coordination of some of the defenders is also lacking, it can be seen that De Jong has several times had to go down to the back area to help defend.
Barcelona are still lucky to be able to add three points even though they have to fight hard, I am very entertained by the performances shown by the two teams. The rain of goals that occurred made the spectators, especially Barcelona supporters very tense, especially since they were left behind before finally finishing the game with victory.

At first I was surprised when 5 minutes into the second half game started Villarreal scored the 3rd goal whereas previously I predicted Barcelona would score the 3rd goal luckily it didn't take long Barcelona managed to equalize the score and close the 4th goal scored by Lewandowski, I can imagine the situation of the gamblers when Barcelona conceded in the second half of course they panic including me  luckily luck was still on Barcelona side.

Now Barcelona is 2 points behind Madrid and in the near future I believe Barcelona takes over the 2nd place then the race starts with Madrid. What do you guys think about Girona? this club became a concern after getting into the top 2 will they be consistent with the next wins?

The game final score was 3-4, this time it was infavour of the bluagrana. They made shocking victory to me, and they recover their stand on the league table and also on the pitch. Watching both competitive clubs performs at Estadio de la Cerámica was a tough one to decide the winners. However Xavi Hernandez always have a way of mingling things out of the squad and style of play. The yellow submarine really pull a strong performance on their ground, However the visitors came prepared and made good use of their goal scoring chances. The bluagrana triumphed over the home team with stellar performance.

It's almost for barcelona. The club is struggling since the first half. Villarela was also making so many chances through its counter attack. Villareal's defensive line was pretty solid and barcelona tried so hard in breaking it but finally the goal from lewandowski has been helping barcelona in securing the full points against villareal. I thought that if barcelona would be losing against villareal but it seems the player was trying to give intensive pressures to the all of sevilla players. It's an attractive match from barcelona and villareal.
De jong and gavi were contributing a lot in this match. A good result from barcelona. Another home work for xavi in making the defensive line become even more consistent in upcoming games.
Barcelona conceded a lot of goals which have been proving the club was not so ready in blocking the counter attack. The counter attack was always become the main problem for the defensive line of barcelona.

barcelona vs villareal was a very tense match, villareal almost managed to win if torres did not score in the 68th minute and lewandowski in the 71st minute, since the beginning of this season, i see that Lewandowski's performance is starting to decline, he is not as sharp as last season ^{(maybe it's still early)}, barcelona is still in 3rd position with 7 points while madrid is still at the top with 9 points.

Tomorrow there will also be an exciting match, between Atletico Madrid vs Rayo, after being held to a 0-0 draw by Real Betis at the opening of the match, Atletico can only be in 8th place, they must win in this match against Rayo if they want to get into the top 5.

Regardless of the result Barcelona got and the game they won against Villarreal, Xavi did his job perfectly because the important thing about this game was about missing Pedri who is one of the most effective players in Barcelona. Xavi had a plant fill his empty place by using the proper strategy to get good results even without Pedri.
For this game, Barcelona didn't have Pedri and Ronald Araújo because they were both injured and Raphinha couldn't play for his team in the next two games because of what happened in the last game.

Realmadrid had to get a replacement for Courtois when he got injured and might be forced to get another player on loan since Vinicius Jnr injury seems serious and could last for a long term, despite Ancelotti making a statement previously that there would be no new signings info the club, I think they'll have to retrace that statement and sign one more player, since the transfer window is still open for some few days, they can't keep relying on Jude Bellingham because they'll need more backup and he could get injured on the long run making the team left out with no reliable goal scorer since he's the current goal getter of the team.
 
 As for Lewandowski he's been so unimpressive since he arrived Barcelona, I expected him to come to the team with the form he had at Bayern Munich but I've not been impressed so far because he's not regularly getting the goals and that could be a problem for Barcelona this season, if his form drops more when the tournament gets tougher they could be forced to loan him out to another club.

Wow damn surprisingly, Athletic Bilbao managed to get a win against Real Betis with a score of 4-2. Incredibly, they were left behind 10 minutes early in the first half with a score of two. I didn't expect them can make an epic comeback at all, it was really bad for me, because I was favor Real Betis on that match and predicted they would win.

Barcelona are getting tougher in their strength after finishing this fight with a win. Even lewandowksi, who in the previous match had difficulty scoring goals, but in this match he managed to score his first goal of the season. Maybe no one saw how good De Jong game was in this match. He was able to control the Barcelona midfield quite well and Gundogan also appeared stunning in this match.

This victory at the same time made Barcelona maintain their pace with Real Madrid on the standings because the two are 2 points apart for the time being. Well, seeing Lamine Yamal, of course, He is a hot topic at the moment because he is 16 years old and has already given an extraordinary charm to the Barcelona senior team. It looks like he will get a regular place in every game that is played by Barcelona.
