Ronald Koeman appeared in the preview of the match that Barça will play against Cádiz tomorrow Sunday (2:00 pm). The coach assessed how the team is doing after falling against PSG in the Champions League (1-4) and analyzed the match against the cadistas. These are your impressions.

How is the team for their return to LaLiga against the last team that beat them after the Champions League defeat?

After a defeat it is good to have a match right away to show that we can be better. We have a good track record in LaLiga. We accept what happened to us, but we have to react.

What message did you send to the staff?

The world does not end after a defeat. We have to analyze our failures and improve things. Talk and train. We lost too many balls, we have to put more intensity. I hope they come out strong to win the game to regain confidence.

What is the priority objective now?

We are in all three competitions. In the Champions League it is very complicated, in the Cup we will lack luck and effectiveness, but we can come back. I think we can get through. In LaLiga we depend on the team that goes up. I am not negative. We are Barça and we have good players and we have to put things in their proper place.

Is the Cup the main objective?

The main objective is the next game. Before Sevilla you have to play three games. Tomorrow's is very important, especially because of what happened. And then Elche on Wednesday at home. The goal is to win every game.

Would you ask Haaland for backup?

I have my ideas for the future, but we have to wait to see who will be the president and talk about the future.

Do you have a problem with the big teams?

We won against Juve and lost at home. We lost to Paris but we can beat them away. It's hard to say that. The data from the other day is not very exaggerated either. They were much more effective. I don't think we can't compete. We have always been close. We can beat anyone. With casualties it is more difficult.

Have you raised the morale of the locker room?

I don't mind harsh comments towards us, it's your job. Mine is to prepare the team. Trying to improve and encourage and bring out the pride of a Barcelona player.

Has the LaLiga level dropped?

No. It is a specific moment that serves several reasons. The deduction is too easy and Real Madrid and Atlético are missing. No conclusions of this kind can be drawn.

How is Piqué after PSG?

It's fine. We did well for him to play 65 minutes. He has had no problems afterwards. Available.

Were the players sunk as Laporta said?

It is normal. On Friday there was a lower atmosphere and that is good. It is normal for it to affect. If it doesn't affect, we don't deserve to be here. Today I have seen them better and with enthusiasm.

With what style do you think Barça can compete again at the highest level?

the physical part will be very important due to the intensity of the rivals and the calendar. We bet more on football quality and we have to make the two things compatible.

Is there a problem in defending the set piece?

We analyzed many things, such as the lack of 1-3. You have to be more focused because we don't have the strength or the height. Do not make useless mistakes.

How do you rate the screams between Piqué and Griezmann?

During a match there is a lot of tension and things happen. It is good to have people who react if you are not happy, there is no time to ask for things please. I have no problem with things happening during the game, I like it, something else is afterwards. I don't like players who are quiet. These are moments of high tension in a match.

Does Sergiño Dest have physical problems?

The injuries may have influenced him because he does not have regularity. He is 19 years old and needs to improve his concentration and aggressiveness. I have talked to him, but he is young and wants to learn. He is before the great step of his career.
