Quique Setién defends Griezmann: "He does a commendable job"

The FC Barcelona achieved to defeat to the Leganés without achieving shine too much in the game, but having tarpaulin in punctual moments in the goals of Ansu Fati in the first time and of Leo Messi, of penalti, in the second. Quique Setién analysed the meeting from the room of press, in which it showed satisfied by it sucedido on the lawn of the Camp Nou.

The Cantabrian technician recognised the difficulty of the duel against the 'pepineros'. "It knew that the party went to be complicated. Except that have the fortune to hit at the beginning, that opens the party, goes to be complicated. Like this it has been. We have begun very well, but afterwards we have lost some balloons and have given them life. Already it happened us in the party of Glass. They could have marked. Afterwards already we have controlled the last 20 minutes. They close very well and they defend very well. It is not easy to find the spaces. Besides, we are not still with this subtlety with the balloon", said.

Also it spoke about the new reality, in the five changes that made. "In reality there are a lot of uncertainties. You treat to manage well the minutes. Waits to see how develops the party. At the end, you want to do the changes and give him gone in to players that are colder. It has been missing us surpass to a team that shuts very well and that, when you are not very fine with the balloon, costs more. They have done it well. They accumulate to a lot of people in defence and have physical capacity to go out advance and hurt you", commented.

Besides, it wanted to recognise the work of Antoine Griezmann, that even marked a goal although it was cancelled. "It is not easy for which play inside. When they accumulate so many people, have to be very fine to find the spaces. Griezmann Can participate more or less, but does a work encomiable. Today it has marked a goal, but have cancelled it to him. It is importantísimo for all", explained, adding that "all the players that play inside, no only he, the interiors that have to be here, moving in spaces reduced, costs them find to the mates. It is not easy. They move , but the rival also. Perhaps when we are a bit better with the balloon, can do it more. Or perhaps against teams that do not close so many. It is not easy to play here, but value other things that do, that come us well".

"We go by the good way"

Riqui Puig, to the that some time had given some touch, in this occasion carried praises. "I have seen him very well, it has gone out with a lot of energy and has done an extraordinary work. It is not easy to go in in the team, but this is what has to do. Take advantage of the minutes as today. It is a penalty that have not marked, because it has been near to do it. I value a lot of what has done and the presence that has had", said.

The management of minutes was another of the subjects that touched. "The changes can help to keep this pressure, but the reality is that this pressure avoids us run a lot to backwards. At the end they are ten metres that do to in front, that is better that do 40 to backwards", commented, adding that "we are happy, but it will be necessary to see it to final of season, that is when you play it to you everything. The aim of all this is to arrive to these cool parties. Have this point of lucidity in these meetings".

After the pandemia, touched to play in a Camp Nou empty. "Already I went out to give a walk before the party. It is totally different. It is a bit like losing an important part of what is the football. It loses this essence that is the noise, the applauses, the spirit, the whisper... Perhaps when you play home it prejudices you, but when you play it was can benefit you. There are teams that know that his team influences them a lot. For us, for example, it is better to play the Friday to empty door", commented Setién.

Besides, it spoke on Gerard Hammered. "They have done him a small brecha and goes to need points. We are slopes of evolution, but expect that it was not grave", wished.

Praises for Ansu Fati

Another of which carried the praises of the santanderino was Ansu Fati, that marked a goal and gave constant helps backwards. "It had suffered some annoyances during several weeks and today has played 45 very good minutes. It has opened us the marker. I am happy because it works a lot in defence and helps us", ensured.

It recognised that it has to improve in some appearances, but that works well: "Today we have opted by Ansu because it carried already a few sessions in which I have seen him very well. It has surpassed some annoyances that had does weeks. It has done a good work, so much in front as in defence. They are missing him things, but has to have the consistency that still does not have. It has been very well the time that has played and have not wanted to put him more in risk. It is necessary to ensure that they do not go to more".

The opportunity of Ansu Fati, therefore, remained very taken advantage of. "It can be crucial, obviously, as any one that have the opportunity to play. The important is that today it has taken advantage of his minutes. I am very happy with the performance, this is obvious. All the players that have up go to go alternating his minutes. I look forward to to give them to all the maximum quantity of possible minutes, if possible", sentenced.
