Koeman: “Nyom has disrespected me; he has said very ugly things to me in the band”

Ronald Koeman did not want to blame bad luck or the game always at the limit of the Getafe regulations to explain the first defeat he has suffered at the head of FC Barcelona. Of course, he missed the VAR this time. “I don't know if there was tonight,” he commented.

How do you rate defeat?

Very difficult game against a very tough opponent like Getafe. We have had several occasions, especially in the first part. One of Griezmann, but has not entered.

Was it bad luck?

Sticks are no excuse. It is true that we have had bad luck, but we have not lost because of that.

What have you wanted to look for with the changes?

We have had very few occasions. We have put more offensive people, but we have had little success upstairs.

Do they feel harmed by the referee?

I don't like talking about the referee. If you watch the game and the fouls and cards you can draw your conclusions. The referee has cut a lot and it has cost us more to play.

What did he say to Bordalás at the end?

I told him that Nyom disrespected me. He has said very ugly things to me and I have told the coach.

What did you think of Griezmann?

There are players like Leo, Griezmann and Fati who can play in many positions. This versatility is important. If you score first, the game had changed.

And Pedri?

It has been well. I wanted Coutinho to rest. Pedri is showing that he has a place in Barcelona.

Does Getafe play excessively hard?

I do not want to talk about this. There is a referee, linemen and even VAR. Although I don't know if we had VAR tonight.
