The sincerity of Ronald Koeman arrived to a point in which it bothered to the players. After the victory by the minimum in front of the Eibar, this Saturday, the trainer left an indirect in the air regarding the level of his players that has not seated very well to the changing room and created some discomfort in the environment during the trip of return to the City Condal.

"When we arrive, we took the staff that there was. The only signing was the one of Dest, the last day. For me it is not a staff with the level that want for the Barça. This is like this and a lot of people in the club thinks the same", had said Koeman in Ipurua. A day before, also in press conference, asked that it respected to the players. A change of speech that, definitely, has been very sudden and has not liked in Can Barça.

As it has informed 'Sport', a part of the Barcelona changing room took with some unrest and surprise his words, no because they considered that Koeman was criticising them to them directly, but by the moment in which it arrived the message. The players, that lived an end of frantic season and know that anything can happen in the summer by the revolution that wants to Joan Laporta, expected more support by part of his trainer.

Because, yes, it is a reality that the staff does not give for more and that do fault a lot of reinforcements to give back him the shine to the Barça and that the team go back to be competitive, but also is true that the responsibility has to be shared and, for the players, Koeman and his staff technical have a lot that see in what it happened in the season and especially in the big tropiezos in the most important parties.

To his time, and the most important point, is that the Barcelona footballers live in an uncertainty regarding his futures and, with these words, increases more the embarrassment. Laporta Already warned that it will not cost the be a 'holy cow' to remain in the club of face to the next season, by what anything could happen and have to 'take care' the backs, also with Koeman.

Koeman Wanted to delete the asperezas

The Dutch, that could be destituido, invited to all his players and technical body to a breakfast in the Ciutat Esportiva the past Sunday to do a closing of the season and appreciate them by his work and effort during the course. Although they did not trascend his words, in concrete, the club reported that Koeman wished them luck in his commitments with his selections (in the Eurocopa, Glass America, Olympic games and European Sub21).

The intention of the trainer, again, was to delete all the incorfomidades and asperezas that could exist during the last weeks, that were very complicated for the team tras go down of the train of LaLiga of unexpected form and before the planned.
