Ronald Koeman spoke in press conference before the meeting that will confront to the FC Barcelona with the Granada. The culés will visit to the Andalusian group this Saturday in a duel complicated in which the Barcelona will have to give his best version. The Dutch knows that the victory of Bilbao will not serve and that the Catalans will need to repeat the same big performance to win. "It is another party and can not trust us of the result of the another day. We know that if we are not to our level, any contrary can complicate us. It is necessary to be humble and do the things well, with and without balloon", affirmed.

The three points of the New The Cármenes would cost to follow litigating by a League that the Athletic of Madrid has already encarrilada. The one of Zaandam is conscious of everything and knows that they can not fail more to be able to aspire to win it. "I always look to the team that goes first if you want to win the championship. It is complicated because the Athletic has been fortísimo in LaLiga, mark and wins split. We are in a situation in which we can not lose a lot of points more. It is necessary to be realistic" declared.

On the other hand, it valued the crossing of the dieciseisavos of Glass of Rey, where the Barça will confront to the Cornellà, hangman of the own Atleti. "It does not surprise me, in all the countries there is this type of eliminatory. It deserved to win to the Athletic of Madrid. A modest team has more motivation and is a touch for us. It is an eliminatory beautiful, do not have to travel and it will be necessary to adapt to the circumstances of the field. We can see the reports of the Barça B, that played recently against them, but first there are other parties in which we will have to give the maximum", informed.

Besides, it insisted in that he already has done all what can do so that there is lower in the Barça and that now only depends on the footballers. "The players on which think that they have to look for an exit already have communicated it to him, especially Ramon Plans. I am more slope of the trainings and parties. At the end always it is the decision of the player, that have agreement. There are some players that the best is to look for an exit and have minutes. A youngster can not be a year without playing. It is not good to improve like player", affirmed, referring perhaps to Riqui Puig or Matheus Fernandes.

Also it repeated by enésima time that would love him can do some signing in January, but that would understand if they could not tackle by the crisis. "For the future in the short term is important. We want to improve the staff and still think that some positions need more competition and effectiveness. Like this I think I, but understand the situation of the club. If it is not possible, is not possible and will expect to the next year", said. Besides, it signalled the importance that the elections do not delay to have options to go to the wintry market. "The best is to have president what before possible because it gives us time to speak on signings", aimed.

Koeman Insisted in the party to party of Simeone

On the other hand, Koeman insisted in the idea to think party to party and not to centre in what it will arrive, that in this case is the Supercopa of Europe, that contests inside less than a week. "The best is to go party to party. We are not in a situation to think in the Supercopa when it is missing us play morning. Our situation in LaLiga forces us to do the maximum to win. What avenges after morning, already will see. It is necessary to prepare well the party", admitted.

Besides, it referred to Leo Messi, that is surely in his best moment in quite a lot of months and that seems to have gone back to find the happiness in the Barça. "Messi is a winner, a player that likes him train and play. As I, am got angry if I lose. I read from the first day that went back has done the maximum for this team. In the last party helped us a lot to win the party. Neither it is normal that mark each day three goals", signalled.

Finally, it spoke of Antoine Griezmann, that was to title in front of the Athletic after being acting in Huesca. For the Dutch, to the French what is missing him is to mark to recover the stray confidence. "Any player needs confidence and this begins by the same player. I can speak with the player, but the key is in the footballers. Antoine works always and the other day recovered a lot of balloons and gave an assistance to Leo. Now it touches him mark, that is the best medicine", concluded.
