It is necessary to see how mark us, our effectiveness. I am somebody that does not do theatre, and do not hide my anger and yesterday said it to him to my players.

The press wanted to sonsacarle to the míster what has said him to the changing room after the disappointment of Cádiz, but Ronald saved it to him for him and insisted in his message. "What say them, remains inside. There is not entrenos to be able to improve a lot of things, but it is necessary to analyse things. We are the team that in general has created five or six clear opportunities in each party, so it is necessary to look for the balance to do more goals and fit less. We have left us escape too many points by things that can not leave", explained.

There is the one who thinks that one of the problems of the Barça is that there is not a leader in the field that shout, encourage or if it does fault put the batteries to his mates, but the technician does not agree. "I think that we need people in the grandstand to encourage to our players. The Barça always has had players more creative in place of workers of the team. We can take more responsibility inside the field, but shout, to me does not like me shout, neither like player did it, but yes have to take more responsibility in the field", affirmed.

On the other hand, it centred in Leo Messi and defended the work of his captain, to the one who excused of the defeats that is harvesting the Barcelona. "In our attack a lot of played go out of the foot of Messi. I agree in that it looks for to Messi like the main culprit because it is the best of the world, but Read does not commit defensive errors. They have marked us goals that can not fit", declared.

The effects of the injury of Dembélé and the Christian vs Messi

The trainer culé spoke also of the injury of Ousmane Dembélé and took advantage of to give him a stick to LaLiga by the schedules. "It is a pity lose to another player by injury. It noticed something in the second part when it went in, thought that it was not at all, and is a step backwards taking into account his record. It is a reason more by which complain of the schedules of the parties. I do not know who puts the schedules of the parties, but if the Tuesday have split of Champions League, thinking in the Spanish teams, can not arrive to the 4 of the morning. We have played five parties out of house to the 9 of the night", stood out.

"The of Dembélé is a penalty. The injuries are the reason by which complain of the schedules of the parties"

The French extreme adds to a list of drops in which it already is Ansu Fati, by what the Barça remains without extremes, something that could be a problem for Koeman. "They are missing us players like Ansu and Dembélé by the bands, so it is necessary to look for the best in the technical and tactical subject, but also in the freshness. Tomorrow it is our last training and afterwards will give the list, but go to put a strong team because we want to win", said, in reference to the crash against the Juve.

Finally, it wanted to stand out the clash between Messi and Christian in the Barça-Juve. The two have marked a period and have been the best of his generation and the trainer barcelonista thinks that the world of the football has to enjoy with them the time that remain them in active. "It has been a pleasure see them compete, have been the best during the last 15 years. They are different players, but have struggled for marking goals, for winning titles, is not a question of who is better. We go to enjoy morning of the two", finalised.
