Sergi throws balls out: “I had little time to work”

Sergi Barjuan spoke on Movistar Plus at the end of the match and before going to the press room. These were his impressions.

How does it stay after 1-1 that closes a week with a point out of nine possible?

We have not been rewarded for a job well done. We have rectified some things in the second part that have worked. But in an isolated play they tie you … We were able to make the second and we could not. You keep that face … from the job you didn’t get.

Has the team lacked forcefulness?

It is an isolated play. We had possession, and we had worked on how to stop Luis Rioja and Joselu; and I think that at one point we stopped it, but based on push and a rebound they took it away and scored the goal. The intensity has been good. We managed to avoid throwing long balls at Joselu in the first half. But an isolated play submits you the whole game

Have you seen a palpable change from Koeman?

I have had little time to work. I have tried to order them at an offensive and defensive level and in this they have been applied a lot. We have rectified some player, but as much as I can explain and say, when there is a negative result it is difficult to digest.

What happened to Piqué and Kun?

They are doing tests on Agüero and Piqué too. I can’t say more

Does being an interim condition you a lot?

Far from it We have raised a party properly. Of possession, of balance between lines. And I’ll do the same on Tuesday if I get to Kiev. Find solutions and try to revive them (the players) and focus them more there. To tell the players that they are good and to believe it.
