❗️Garcia Pimienta told @beteve: “I was & am ready to coach the first team. It would not be realistic if I’m not prepared & work daily during matches and training in case the first team needs me one day. It's my intention & enthusiasm, considering it's very difficult..” #FCB 🔵🔴
Pimienta: “I wasn't surprised by the performances of players like Mingueza, Araujo or Ilaix. They are great players, who have the Barça DNA & if you put them in front of the best, they are even better. I'm not at all surprised..” #FCB 🌟
Pimienta: “Riqui Puig is a player made to play for Barcelona” #FCB 🇪🇸🌟
Pimienta: “Barça must always be prepared to look for the best talents, as long as it improves what they have at home [La Masia]. Sometimes, a lot of players have problems adapting to the way we play..” #FCB 🔄
“..but there are also cases, like Ronald Araujo's, who have shown they can play in the first team. Maybe we made a mistake with some signings, but there are players who have the profile [to play for Barça] and aren’t given chances..” #FCB ⚽️
“What is true is that the home players have an advantage over those outsiders, because they [outsiders] find it very difficult to adapt” #FCB 👥

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 👥

ℹ️ “How come we are interested in this player when we have no president?” — Barcelona’s current sporting area, which is led by Ramon Planes, has been doing a market search in these last few months ahead of the elections this March, as advanced by multiple sources. More below. ⤵️
Planes is filing reports on different kinds of players they could look into & positions which we need to be reinforced. That’s why we’ve been linked to players like Isak, Nunez or Bryan Gil, though not all reports which links us to a player from another club rn are credible. 📑
All these reports are going to be for the next president & his management who will arrive in March after the elections. They will arrive at the club w/ many reports on different players the club should consider looking into & what positions should be strengthened in the team. 👥

(🌕) Ronald Koeman, the candidates & the technical secretariat agree that it is a priority to sign a CF. Erling Håland is a name that pleases everyone, though Barça will need to sell players & lower their wage bill before signing him. @ffpolo #Transfers #ElectionsFCB 🇳🇴

More: ⤵️
ℹ️ Among the presidential candidates, especially Joan Laporta & Victor Font, there is talk of Erling Håland’s possible signing if certain circumstances occur. @ffpolo #Transfers #ElectionsFCB 🇳🇴
ℹ️ There are other names too, other than just Håland. Aguero is a player who is considered to have ‘Barça level’ by some candidates and that he would be a good incentive to try and renew Messi. Ronald Koeman likes Depay & Lukaku. Ramon Planes likes Lautaro. @ffpolo #Transfers 👥

Pedri told @AP: “I've always loved Iniesta and his way of playing football, the way he plays both on and off the field. He was my reference and I've tried to imitate him. I think I’ve seen all of Iniesta’s videos on YouTube and I had never missed a game of his” #FCB 🇪🇸⭐️
Pedri, on his combinations with Messi: “Maybe that's something I learned from Andres, but the truth is they're things that happen on the field. If you suddenly listen to Leo, you know you can give him the ball because he'll create danger & end up marking as usual” @AP #FCB 🇦🇷🤝🇪🇸
Pedri, on Koeman: “One day he put me aside & had told me that he didn't know much about me, that he had barely seen me play and I’d have to show him what I can do in training. I got motivation out of that. I knew I had to work as hard as anyone to win my place” @AP #FCB 🇪🇸
