Guy LeCharles Gonzalez<p>Betis!!!! Finishing 6th didn't seem like a realistic expectation two months ago, but they've looked like a very different team since Anthony joined, and Rodriguez has been a revelation.</p><p>No idea what next season will be like without Anthony, but I'm enjoying the return of <a href="https://gardenstate.social/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a>.</p><p><a href="https://gardenstate.social/tags/FediFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FediFC</span></a> <a href="https://gardenstate.social/tags/LaLiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaLiga</span></a></p>

Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>Isco must be watching Lo Celso with mixed emotions. Part, "Fuck, yeah!" part, "Woah, don't take my spot!"</p><p>I can see them playing together better than Isco and Fekir did, especially with Carvalho out, so hopefully Betis can keep steady until he's fully fit.</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> is back? 🤞🏽</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/FediFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FediFC</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/LaLiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LaLiga</span></a></p>
Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>Other than Isco, <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> hasn't been what it used to be for a while, but maybe <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchVillareal" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchVillareal</span></a> will replace it?</p><p>They don't defend well, partly because they're so attack-minded, so 4-3 games won't be uncommon, and like Betis for a few years, they won't win them all. But they'll be entertaining AF every week!</p><p>(I don't know when or why, but I've always disliked Celta Vigo and Aspas, so it's good to see them lose on a blatant penalty.)</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/LaLiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LaLiga</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/FediFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FediFC</span></a></p>
Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>Almost didn't watch Betis today because I was worried Athletic would absolutely manhandle them, but they flipped the script and came out swinging. Ruibal always seems to be a factor in scrappy games like this, and he totally frustrated Nico into quitting via that second yellow.</p><p>Instead of a disappointing, injury-plagued season fizzling out, maybe they'll still be in the fight for Europe when Isco (among others) returns? 🤔🤞🏽</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MastodonFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MastodonFC</span></a></p>
Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>If not for Isco, this season would feel like a total disaster for Betis. They can't score, they're playing very conservatively, and a ton of injuries means they haven't fielded a legit Best XI all season. They're making Barcelona look like a much better team than they've actually been this season, which is even worse.</p><p>First time in several years that <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> isn't true. ☹️</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MastodonFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MastodonFC</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/LaLiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LaLiga</span></a></p>
Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>As draws go, I'll take it. Madrid was definitely the better team but Betis had the bigger heart, never backed down, and Ruibal was the embodiment of that. Isco's late header should have stolen the win, though. So damn close! <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a></p>
Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>RUIBAL!!!! He's been getting torched by Rodrygo all game, but Rodrygo was nowhere to be found at the other end on that one. Game on!</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/RealBetisRealMadrid" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>RealBetisRealMadrid</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MastodonFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MastodonFC</span></a></p>

Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>La Liga's back and with so many changes at Betís, it feels like last season ended ages ago. Hopefully they can keep Henrique, and Isco finally fulfills his potential, or it could be a really loooong season. <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> </p><p>With Canales at Monterrey now, he might be my gateway into Liga MX. 🤔</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MastodonFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MastodonFC</span></a></p>
Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>Joaquín walking off the pitch for the last time as a player. 40 years old and still better than half the players in Europe. 🙌🏽😢</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Joaquin" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Joaquin</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/RealBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>RealBetis</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/LaLiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LaLiga</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MastodonFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MastodonFC</span></a></p>
Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>Aitor Ruibal might be my favorite soccer player right now. Definitely Top 5. He's got that Wayne Chrebet / Lenny Dykstra / John Starks energy I love. </p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/LaLiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LaLiga</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MastodonFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MastodonFC</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.laliga.com/en-GB/player/aitor-r" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">laliga.com/en-GB/player/aitor-</span><span class="invisible">r</span></a></p>
Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>Betis toe-to-toe with Madrid in the first half without Canales and Fekir is a good sign, but they need to score soon before Madrid pulls their usual late bullshit. As much as I love Ruibal, Henrique could be the difference-maker they need to take advantage of Camavinga and control Vini, and Guardado for Carvalho so they can stay strong in the middle. <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MastodonFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MastodonFC</span></a></p>
Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>Betís didn't deserve to win, but they didn't deserve to lose, especially not after Aspas' horrendous acting performance to draw the red card. It was clear Felipe didn't touch his face, but while he was squirming on the ground he somehow gets two scratches? FOH! 🤬🤬 <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/cmonson" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>cmonson</span></a></p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/LaLiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LaLiga</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MastodonFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MastodonFC</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> (even when it hurts)</p>
Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>If Betis can get/stay healthy (Juanmi, Fekir, Canales) and stop getting stupid cards, they can make another run for top four, while 5th / Europa League should be considered another successful season. Copa del Rey or Supercopa would be gravy, but not if it drops them below 5th.</p><p>Henrique has come a long way and has to stay in the XI, while Edgar is developing nicely as a comfortable CB3; my biggest concern would be replacing Moreno. 😢 </p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/LaLiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LaLiga</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MastodonFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MastodonFC</span></a></p>
Guy LeCharles Gonzalez (MOVED)<p>Typically frustrating first half for a still out of sync Betis. First two goals were both lucky, but Rayo arguably deserved theirs and were running them ragged most of the half. Henrique's moment of brilliance shifted the momentum a bit (what a player he's developing into!) but they're going to have to change something in the second half to stay on top.</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/LaLiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LaLiga</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AlwaysWatchBetis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlwaysWatchBetis</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MastodonFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MastodonFC</span></a></p>
