The Betis triumph before Osasuna he left flashes of hope beyond the three points achieved. Manuel Pellegrini outlined a broad smile when he found that Nabil Fekir imposed his leadership on the grass and signed one of his best performances so far this season. The green-and-white coach exposed clearly that reality: “I talked a lot with him, he showed that makes a difference in the category. We put him a bit more advanced and he played a great game participating more in attack. “

The Chilean bet it is no accident. Fekir passed year and a half in Heliopolis away from the area contrary and that minimized his decisive potential in the last meters. The Frenchman signed the start of the 0-1 action in Pamplona and it was evident from the beginning that he is more comfortable in a position closer to the ram and with spaces ahead.

He insists that the player has in his hands be a important asset in this League and wants to raise his performance so that he gets closer to the player who was one step away from signing for Liverpool before arriving at Betis.
