On this Patron-only episode of Las Blancas Podcast, Om Arvind and Grant Little discuss:

• Why this loss was so soul-sucking in particular
• Sevilla not being that good
• Whether anyone in charge of this team actually cares that we’re bad right now
• Why Caroline Møller Hansen was less effective vs. Sevilla than Breidablik
• The reasons getting a new manager in the present moment makes sense whichever way you look at it
• Being unable to define what Real Madrid’s offensive structure is
• Sympathizing with the fans’ sheer frustration
• Getting stuff off of our chests
• The deep block quandary
• What Las Blancas need in a good coach
• If David Aznar has ever executed a genuine tactical masterclass
• Why the true blame lies with the people above Aznar now
• Starting a dialogue around Claudia Zornoza’s shot selection
• Lorena Navarro having an off day
• Our lack of reaction to going down early
• The bizarre Ivana Andrés and Babett Peter positional swap
• Why the Møller-Athenea del Castillo duo worked vs. Breidablik and not against Sevilla
• Why Nahikari García should’ve come on for Athenea and not Møller
• Everything going to shit after Madrid conceded the second goal
• Lucía Rodríguez in central midfield
• The whole incident between Jessica Martínez and Olga Carmona and Madridistas’ response to that
• Møller’s innocent optimism and the way it’s going to be pummeled to pieces over the course of this season
• Updates on our press conference chances
• Damaris Egurrola potentially joining the USWNT over Spain
