Posted on October 26, 2021 at 2:30 p.m. by Th.B.

Jostled at his exit from Camp Nou on Sunday evening after the defeat of FC Barcelona against the eternal rival of Real Madrid (2-1), Ronald Koeman had to watch helplessly the admonitions of the Blaugrana supporters then that he was immobilized in his car with his wife among others. An episode which marked the Dutchman, but which did not undermine his determination to continue at FC Barcelona.

The FC Barcelona lost again this season in a momentous match on Sunday night when they received Real Madrid at Camp Nou (2-1). A feeling of déjà vu after the setbacks conceded against Atletico de Madrid at the beginning of October (2-0) which followed defeats against Benfica Lisbon and Bayern Munich in the Champions League (3-0) earlier in the season. Results that clearly do not work in favor of Ronald Koeman either with the management while his contract will expire at the end of the current financial year and supporters who openly showed their dissatisfaction on Sunday evening at the end of Ronald Koeman from Camp Nou in his car. The images circled the web in which we see FC Barcelona socios surrounding the vehicle of the club culé coach, unable to move forward for long seconds. An incident representative of the deleterious climate currently at FC Barcelona and around the Dutch coach. So inevitably, during his visit to a press conference on Tuesday, Koeman was questioned about this special episode of which he was the protagonist, unwittingly.

“It's more of a social problem, it's not a question of culés”

Asked to express himself on this friction with the supporters during the press point in question and in remarks reported by Mundo Deportivo, Ronald Koeman underlined a crying lack of education from FC Barcelona supportersconcerned by this unfortunate episode. “The incidents with the supporters? Solution I don't think there is. For me, it's more of a social problem, it's not a question of dead ends. It's more about education, they don't have values. The atmosphere on the pitch was amazing, even at 0-2. We don't have to be too careful, and it looks like it was only with me, but it was with a lot of players, with their families. Maybe it was more exaggerated with me, but even Carles Puyol must have suffered. The club know that this cannot be repeated and must look for another formula. We should not pay more attention to it, it is a social problem that arises all over the world, not just here ”.

According to information disclosed by the journalist of La Sexta José Alvarez on the set of El Chiringuito, the coach of FC Barcelona was said to have been emotionally shaken by the confrontation with supporters on Sunday night as he was in his car with his wife and two relatives who were filming the scene in a documentary. “I have the images because there were two people in the back who were filming for a documentary, my wife next to me. There was an Arsenal guy in front, there was a point where I said I was going to go out, but in the end I decided not to (laughs). When you go out there are a lot of cameras, a lot of phones, a lot of Tik-tok for their fans … it's a social issue that we have and you better put your energy into other things. “/p>

“Resign? I want to take advantage, if it's eight years, if it's a year and if it's three months… ”

However, Ronald Koeman did not for a second consider the option of resigning from his post as coach of FC Barcelona during the said confrontation with the supporters of Barça. “If I considered quitting after the incidents? It's true that I don't like it, I prefer applause to that, but again, people who know the situation of the club and the team, without looking at a disappointing result against Madrid, know that he there are some positive things. I'm a big boy in this business, I want to enjoy the atmosphere that was on the pitch the other day. I accept the results. I want to take advantage, if it's eight years, eight years, if it's a year, a year, and if it's three months, three months ”. It remains to be seen from now on whether such excesses will take place by the end of the coaching mandate of Ronald Koeman at FC Barcelona, ​​ namely next June…
