LIGA - FC Barcelona: the cries of revolt of Gerard Piqué and Sergi Roberto
TRANSFERmarketWEB.com
In the space of a few days, FC Barcelona has produced two average or even arbitrary performances, marked by two draws, at home on Monday against Granada (1-1, 5th day of La Liga) then in Cadiz this Thursday evening (0-0, 6th day). If the Blaugranas have a late match to play, against Sevilla FC, they are already 7 points behind the leader, Real Madrid, in the standings.
The dynamic is far from ideal, especially since, on Wednesday, Ronald Koeman attended a press conference to read a press release, explaining between the lines that his team would not play the title this season.
"To finish in the first places of the classification in Liga would be a success." dropped the Dutchman. This speech, the captains of the Catalan team, who had been warned before his speech, did not accept.
Two of them made this clear to Cadiz. Starting with Gerard Piqué.
“We have four major absences in front and we are doing what we can. But I also said that we would fight for the titles. I am convinced that we will be in the race. The team is ambitious, and the public is with us.
I am here to win, not to be second or third. We will fight to the end, but on Sunday we need the support of the public,” said the defender at the microphone of Movistar +.
At the same media, Sergio Roberto also made a speech opposite to that of his coach.
“Here, you have to win La Liga. It's not enough for me to finish in the top four. We are Barça and there are no excuses. We have to give our best, we have the workforce to fight for the title," he assured.
Will this cry of revolt be enough to wake Barça up or will it widen the gap between Koeman and his group a little more? The reception of Levante (7th day) this weekend and the trip to Benfica (2nd day of the Champions League) will give more details.
