Guillermo Ochoa's first game at La Rosaleda

I don't think it worked out as he hoped.

First he let one in then he came out to make what would have been an excellent save - if he hadn't missed it. So that was two for Fiorentina.

The problem with not saving goals when you play for Malaga is, they've got nobody can replace them up the other end. There was a lot of action from Malaga midfield, they were passing the ball, they were taking the game to Fiorentina.

But they seemed to find it impossible to score. Lots of shots, they either missed or went straight into the keeper's hands.

Well, it's early days and Ochoa and his defense don't seem to have got themselves organised as a unit yet. I'm sure things will improve for him. He is a good goalie, but he seemed to be in a bit of a panic after the first one went in. Probably realised it would be difficult to make up the deficit.

It wasn't a game he wanted to make a cockup of, that's for sure. First one at home in front of the fans. Oops.

The trouble is, people like their heroes to be perfect. And nobody ever is.

Lol, they should get Andrés Guardado to come to Malaga instead of Everton - if he's even going there. That rumour seems to have died a death. He's a man who knows how to think on his feet. Like his goal in the Emirates Cup - everyone's running around him, he's like - oh, here's the ball - does a little swivel run and just trundles it straight in. Cool.

Then they need to find themselves a cheap striker - because they've got no cash - who can run really really fast and knows where the goal is when he gets there.
