FC Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman has spoken about Lionel Messi’s comments to the press, sergino Dest’s signing and others before the close of the play window, in addition to the formula he will adopt and there will be rotations for Thursday’s clash against Celta de Vigo.
Asked without delay by an extensive interview with SPORT that the captain had published wednesday morning, Koeman said: “There is never a quiet day, but it is positive that the team captain [Messi] conveys this message, and let’s see if we now have a little more peace of mind.
He was then asked about Sergino Dest’s signage and replied that the right-back “is undergoing a medical examination and has not yet signed the contract. “”I would wait [before commenting],” Koeman added, “but when he points out that he will be a very useful player for Barca, with a lot of joy and a lot of quality. “
There have been rumors that Ousmane Dembélé is at Manchester United, but Koeman insists he is “here” with the Blaugrana and is sure to play.
“He didn’t play as a starter because Ansu [Fati] proved he’s a very smart player for this team. It is true that he has experienced a slight physical slowdown in recent weeks but he has trained well today and I count on him.
Regarding the controversy with the VAR, Koeman noted that this happens in all the countries where it has happened: “Sometimes they go too far with the VAR, but at the end of the season there is a balance. I’m in favor of the VAR”. with the offside, [I still] don’t agree so much with the VAR in handball,” Koeman admitted.
“First we have to take a look at what we’re missing on the team. Then you have to see the economic unrest of the team,” Koeman began, about the market that must close on October 5. We’ll have to not be [ourselves]. ], there are two positions where we want things. For [number] 9, we want to strengthen. The club will work to make it, and if not, we’ll paint with the ones we have because I don’t have judgments with my players.
On Antoine Griezmann, who has been moved on the opposing flank this season but has failed to make an effect on Villarreal, Koeman said: “He does things very well because he plays on the right wing and has much more freedom of play. “In the [match] Holland-France also played for the right. I think he’s playing really well and I’m very satisfied with his work.
As for Barca’s new 4-2-3-1 and they will adopt tomorrow, Koeman said: “For me, the vital thing is that we have a formula in which everyone feels comfortable and that there is a feast for this formula. But that” doesn’t mean it can’t be changed, you have to take a look at the opponent and see where it can hurt us, we don’t know if Celtic will play with a 4-4-2 or a 5-3-2. The most vital thing is to make paintings of our formula and if we paint little by little, we will assume what we need.
“We work very intensively and tactically the 4 weeks of pre-season,” Koeman continued. “We only have one game, then the national groups [take control of the calendar] Array . . . we can make a change, but we won’t rotate it because we don’t want it at the moment.
