Garcia Pimienta [Barcelona B Coach] told SER: "We are talking about the Barça DNA, but within the DNA you have to be a winner and competitive. This club aspires to win everything. If you don't have a winning mentality within your DNA, you can't play here" #FCB 🔵🔴

Pimienta: "The Barça DNA is a different way of understanding football - that they truly understand the game, they use both legs, they position themselves well, they think faster than others and that before receiving they already know what to do" #FCB 🔵🔴

Pimienta: "I assure you there are players [from the subsidiary] with this profile & that they can play in the first team, then there are other circumstances. But we must be faithful, believe, and give these players a chance, I am convinced that they have a level to spare" #FCB 👥

Pimienta: "You have to bet on these young players, like it happened with Pep. If you give these players confidence they can play and win for the first team" #FCB 👥🔵🔴

Pimienta, on Alex Collado: "We are working with him. It is true he is a boy who has already debuted in previous seasons. I'm sure the first team coach has his eye on him. For me, he's made to make a place for himself in the first team" #FCB 🇪🇸⭐️

Pimienta: "Araujo is a kid who has always wanted to learn. In the reserve team he had problems while having the ball at his feet and so we did a great job with him. Now he is a player for the Barça first team" #FCB 🇺🇾💣

Pimienta: "Riqui Puig must win to have more minutes, in the end it is the coach who wants to win. When he started he did well, with me from day to day he has pushed hard to fulfill his dream of playing in the first team. He is young, but he is made to play at Barça" #FCB 🇪🇸⭐️

Pimienta: "I don't know if Messi will continue, but I hope he does. I can't imagine a Barça without him, he has done his entire career right here. He has earned the right to decide what he wants to do, but I hope he ends his career with us" #FCB 🇦🇷

Pimienta: "Being a coach for the Barça first team is very complicated, but I work to be prepared in case the club needs me one day. Just as we train the players, my obligation is to be trained and be prepared in case my turn comes one day" #FCB 🤝🔵🔴
