The European classification caused, of course, a great joy at Betis and in his hobby. However, the history of the Verdiblanco club warns of the problems that the entity suffers in the subsequent seasons to stamp his ticket to travel through the Old Continent, something that Pellegrini wants to avoid on this occasion.
The last time that Betis played in the Europa League, in the 18/19 season, the result was that the team fell on sixteenths. Meanwhile, he reached the Cup semifinal del Rey, but the elimination against Valencia caused a downhill slope for the team that Setién trained that went from fighting for European positions to ending in a mediocre tenth position in LaLiga.
Much worse was the previous one, since in the season 2013/14 playing in Europe ended up costing the Betis the relegation to Second as a featured bottom. To make matters worse, the elimination in the Europa League came at the hands of a Seville who came back from 0-2 in the first leg and ended up being champion. The other references in the XXI century of the 'Eurobetis' are a 14th place in LaLiga in 2006 and an 8th in 2003.
The experience attend a Pellegrini who knows very well what it is to carry out three competitions. That is why the Chilean has already warned of the need to improve the squad in number of members and in their quality. The ball is on the club's roof.
