Before 2015/16 the source names the manager on fewer matches, so these rows can miss games.

Unai Emery is the longest-serving: 204 matches over 3 years (Jan 2013 – May 2016). Joaquin Caparros added the most coach rating: +39.6 over 152 matches.

Club rating - the club's rating at the manager's first rated match → after the last. Coach rating - what the spell added to the manager's coach rating. Vs expected - average result per match above what the club rating predicted. Stand-in - a caretaker who covered a few matches during another manager's spell, folded under that spell. Every competition we hold, lower divisions included.

Under Mateo Busquets Ferrer, Sevilla picked up 1.82 cards a game, 38% below their own average in the same seasons (11 matches).

League matches since 2015/16 with the referee named (426). Cards = Sevilla's own yellows and reds. Club avg = their cards a game in the same seasons with every referee. Under 10 matches the gap is grey: too few to call. Referees aren't drawn at random - the big games go to the senior ones - so a gap here describes, it doesn't prove a bias.
