The streamer Ibai Llanos has once again managed to capture all eyes on the Twitch platform, as a result of the Relaxed “talk” that has maintained this Thursday with the Barcelona central Gerard Piqué.
The Spanish content creator already announced this Wednesday that he would inaugurate a new section called ‘Chatting Quietly’, a new format where he wants to surprise his more than 5 million followers.
The encounter started at 9:00 p.m. on Ibai's Twitch channel and, as expected, he sparked on all kinds of topics, from the tough defeat against Bayern Munich to his relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo when the two formed ranks at Manchester United.
The talk between Ibai Llanos and Gerard Piqué:
Ibai: How are you?
Piqué: I'm better than I expected. I need to spend several hours running, spinning and touching the ball. I made the decision to go with a preservation method, and it seems to be working very well.
Ibai: I am from a rival team (Real Madrid), but if Barça had lost yesterday (against Granada) would you be here today?
Piqué: I always think that Barça wins
Ibai: How did you experience the match and the classification in the Copa del Rey?
Piqué: More than because of the game and the classification, it is a blow on the table. It is the most positive thing to face the end of the season
Ibai: On the future of the new president, do you players vote?
Piqué: Those of us who are members can vote. But I don't know how many of us are partners in the team.
Ibai: And the Messi-Burofax issue
Piqué: “It was a very difficult situation for everyone. On the one hand there is the situation of the club, on the other hand there is the personal level (what Messi feels), and some events happened that ended in the best possible way because Leo stayed. I don't know his final intention. L
or I look very happy and having him by the side is a guarantee of success.
Ibai: There is a footballer who draws my attention, who is Luis Suárez
Piqué: The guy is at the level he has been in recent years. He always maintains that goal rate, he is very reliable
Ibai: Theme of the classics and Mourinho
Piqué: “Now it's much lighter. But when he arrived everything got hot and then when he left everything calmed down. The facts are there. There are actions that crossed the limit, such as the finger to Tito Vilanova ”.
Ibai: How do you get along with Sergio Ramos?
Piqué: I get along cordially, I get along well and I have a good deal.
Ibai: How to manage all the success you have won (Champions, World Cup …)
Piqué: You always have to have the ambition to want to win more things. Now that we've eaten a lot of shit, you value lifting titles a lot more. In life you need to be lucky. But luck goes with a lot of work.
Ibai: And how do you go home with a 2-8?
Piqué: It hurts a lot, but this is life. Sometimes life slaps you. But one has to adapt, improve. You always have to look ahead. Failure is part of life.
“Bartomeu lacked more leadership”
Ibai: About the criticism you receive
Piqué: “When we started to touch on nonsense issues such as politics, business, family, sentimental … All these things are many and more varied. and I would like to be valued for my athletic performance.
Ibai: How do you get along with Bartomeu?
Piqué: The Covid situation has complicated everything a lot. A president (his opinion) has to try to manage the problems that come up, whether people like it or not. But when you don't appear … a mountain starts to build and more problems arise.
Ibai: Did you lack attitude?
Piqué: Maybe it took more leadership and showing up. I have a cordial treatment with him. As a person I don't think I have evil. I told him on more than one occasion to meet at the Ciudad Deportiva, but he did not appear. It did not go well and the club is in the situation it is. Now there are elections, and I hope that the partner votes with the limitations of Covid. All three candidates are competent. You have to look to the future.
Ibai: How were you when you were little?
Piqué: He was a fairly normal boy, but it made a difference to me that at 10 years old I was already playing in the lower categories of Barça. He was a good student, otherwise my mother would scold me. Until I was 17 I didn't really think about being a professional soccer player. Just when I left for Manchester, that was a unique experience.
About 2-8: “Sometimes life slaps the face”
Ibai: And with Cristiano Ronaldo?
Piqué: I have always had a good relationship with Cristiano. At that time you don't expect that he could become a player who could win five Ballon d'Or.
Ibai: Who is historically from the Barça dressing room that is fun
Piqué: I put examples like Jordi Alba or Aleix Vida. These players give you life. A united wardrobe is very important. With a fun wardrobe you are more eager to train, but this in all areas.
Ibai: What do you think of these new platforms (Twitch)?
Piqué: I'll tell you that this streamer thing has been hard for me to understand. I saw that there was more and more attention and that you attract very young people. Now I consume it and it amuses me. But I understand that there are people who still perceive it.
