After Real Betis defeated Getafe 1-0 at home in the sixth round of La Liga, Pellegrini spoke to the media.

Speaking about the team's victory, Pellegrini said: "It's not easy to get 15 points from 18, especially after beating the top of the Ligue 1 standings away in a Champions League match. This is a very motivating start, and it also means high demands. We must continue to fight for as high a league position as possible."
Regarding the match against Getafe, Pellegrini said: "Getafe is very difficult to face. They defend a lot and are very strong physically. Fortunately, we scored that goal. We had three or four other good chances to extend our lead. Defensively we played very well, and the opponent barely threatened our goal. If we can't score a second goal, we must learn to keep a clean sheet while controlling the game in the opponent's area and continue looking for goals."
Speaking about Abde, who scored after a difficult period, Pellegrini said: "He hasn't played consistently for a long time, almost four months. Therefore, we only let him play a maximum of 70 minutes. He also needs to return to the Morocco national team now. Abde is a very important player, very impactful, and can bring something different to the team."
Speaking about De Osa's performance, Pellegrini said: "I'm pleased he's staying. He's an important player, perhaps in his first season in Europe he wasn't quite mature enough and couldn't show his abilities. He's a different type of player, very open to criticism, and can adapt to many positions. As long as he maintains this performance, personally I want him to stay, because he needs time to adapt when he first arrives at the club. During preseason, he also played as a center forward and could provide a lot of help to the team."
Regarding whether there was a handball before Abde's goal, Pellegrini said: "I didn't see it, and honestly, I haven't watched a replay of that goal, so I can't answer. But even if that goal hadn't counted, we had another shot that hit the post. Real Betis deserved the victory. Getafe defended very well and are a difficult team to face, but they barely really threatened our goal."
Speaking about the team's unbeaten record at La Cartuja, Pellegrini said: "It's very valuable. It's difficult to play away from your home stadium. Although La Cartuja has welcomed us well, Benito Villamarín stadium is closer from here, and it's our home. The team has adapted here, and the fans always give us great support. Statistics always tell a story, and I hope we can continue this performance in front of our fans at home."
Pellegrini said: "I want the team to remain consistent, not just perform well at a certain stage of this season. When we work together as a whole, even with seven rotated players, we can maintain the same level. We believe in what we're doing. We've lost matches and come back from deficits, always fighting to get three points. Getting 15 points in six matches is not easy; only Barcelona has done it. Besides, we also got three points in the Champions League, which will be very helpful. We must avoid complacency, especially given the team's current performance. We lost to Levante, but that helped us rise against Real Madrid. The team knows how to be critical of itself, and the goal is to try to win the championship, but based on good football and our hard work."
Speaking about D.Llorente's situation, Pellegrini said: "We have four players in this position, two right-footed and two left-footed, and Nathan can easily adapt to the other side. Bartra is 35 years old, and it's good for him to reduce some of the load during the week. We're currently dealing with this issue. Now the international break will come, and I hope D.Llorente can return to full training with the team this week."
Speaking about Valles potentially being called up to the Spain national team, Pellegrini said: "I'm pleased for Álvaro Valles, he's having a good season. We have Diego who is injured, and Manu who came from the bench, who has also done a good job, and I hope he can stay consistent. It's difficult to be a national team coach, everyone knows that Luis de la Fuente has the ability to choose the best players, and it's not my job to decide who will be called up."
Speaking about Ceballos returning to La Cartuja, Pellegrini said: "Of course it's very important. He's a player who came from our youth academy, and then played for Real Madrid for a full eight years. It's not easy to last that long there. He came back with great enthusiasm, and there were other options during that time, but he waited until the end because he wanted to come back here, back home. He has now become a very important addition to the team."
