REAL SOCIEDAD-BARCELONA

Koeman: "Laporta has confidence in me but we need results"

"It is important for the club that there is a president and a future. We are talking about this future," said the Barcelona coach.

Koeman: "Laporta has confidence in me but we need results"

Barcelona head coach Ronald Koeman spoke to the press the day before the LaLiga game against Real Sociedad:

Real Sociedad

"They are a strong team, one of the best in this league. They want to put pressure on their opponent. They were tough games against them. It's a tricky game."

On new president

"It is important that there is a president and a future. Now we can talk about it and there is a peace of mind to have someone who is the face of club from the inside and out. It is our turn to work, get good results and play well. For the club it is important to have Laporta as president."

Laporta's confidence

"It is important to highlight our work. He already told me after the PSG game on the plane that he has confidence in me, but this may change if there are no results. And we have to keep working and hopefully it will last for a long time."

Carles Tusquets

"I know Mr. Tusquets well. We have talked about several things in recent times and also about the issue of salaries. You have to understand the economic situation and I, as someone from the club, I am willing to help in any aspect."

On Barcelona going for the double

"I don't like to talk about the double, things can change very quickly. A long time ago we were bad, there was nothing going well. We have to keep working, game by game. We are four points behind Atlético and we have a very difficult schedule coming up. There is a long way to go to win things. This is not the time to think. Tomorrow's game is more important than the one in three weeks."
