Pique: “Xavi is ideal for Barcelona’s bench, he needs patience”

He expressed his belief that Xavi is the ideal coach of Barcelona in an interview given by Gerard Piqueasking for patience from the “blaugrana” friends.

In addition, he spoke about Real Madrid, he emphasized that he feels happy about what he has achieved during his football career, he mentioned the possibility of becoming the president of Barcelona, ​​while he was also placed on the Negreira case.

In detail what he said:



For Barcelona: “Needs patience. As long as there are solutions, you have to be patient. I know very well that Barcelona must win every game, but Xavi knows it too. He loves the club and is the ideal person to be at its helm. They need victories and spectacle, when they don’t come, nerves and criticism come. The demands are huge and that’s how it should be. When you’re part of it all, you get used to it. There is extra pressure”.

For Real Madrid: “Real Madrid are almost the same team. He’s a little different, but he’s getting the results and in February he’ll be in contention for all the titles. When Barcelona win the Champions League everyone remembers it forever, when Real Madrid win it, it’s just another one. Nobody will remember the last Champions League that Real won. It was a miracle that she got it, she was inferior to her opponents in all rounds”.

On whether he misses playing professional football: “I miss the competition and the atmosphere of the locker room. I haven’t played at all in a year, racing without being competitive is not for me. But I think I’ve done well in my career and I wouldn’t go back. But I watch enough football”.

On whether he intends to become president of Barcelona: “I don’t rule it out, but it’s not in my immediate plans. It is something very difficult, you sacrifice and expose yourself. I would only do it to help the club”.

For the Negreira case: “It’s difficult to talk about this while the investigation is ongoing. I’m sure there will be explanations, but it’s pretty bad to say we won because of refereeing decisions. We were so superior to our opponents that there was no need for any referee to help us.”.
