Julen Lopetegui, the Sevilla manager, discussed the current season and provided an injury update on Jesus Navas and Munir El Haddadi in the build to the busy Christmas period.
"Football moves so quickly that you have to deal with every situation rapidly, evaluating the positive moments and even times when you don't achieve your objective," Lopetegui said.
"The LaLiga season is very long and there will be good times and other less good times - you have to focus on your own situation.
"Jesús Navas is doing great. Munir is also available - he's been given the all clear and has taken part in two training sessions. He might travel with the team [for upcoming games this month]."
