THE Barcelona stuck at 0-0 with the He was flying about two weeks ago, with Xavi after the game to complain about the poor pitch of the opposing team.
The Blaugrana coach, in his new statements, again referred to the specific issue and emphasized that there should be a regulation that would protect the players and the teams.
“Are they criticizing me for talking about it? They criticize me for everything, nothing bothers me, I know where I stand. Besides, what do you want to know if the sun bothers me? Yes, the sun bothers me and I’m not going to change my mind. No matter how many memes they make me, the sun bothers us, the dry grass doesn’t help us, not us, not the game, not Getafe. The question is about Quique (Sanchez Flores), not me. The question is: Why didn’t you water the field? Ask Getafe’s coach, why they didn’t water the pitch”first reported and continued:
“I’m not going to stop until there is a regulation, because in all sports there is one for the surface. Why not in football? I don’t need to be silent.
In golf, if the grass isn’t good, you don’t play. In tennis, if it rains, the match is stopped. In basketball, if LeBron James goes down, he gets mopped up.
And can I play on the pitch with puddles? So who benefits from this? I will not be silent. The surface is important to me. It is not an excuse for the result. I also say it when I win. What bothers me in the sun? The grass dries up. I don’t care if they make me two hundred thousand memes, I’ll say the same, I’ll think the same”.
