Former legend of FC Barcelona (1997-2002), Rivaldo has the feeling that things are not going well right now at the club. According to him, Antoine Griezmann’s very late entry into play, Tuesday during the match against Atlético de Madrid, proves it.
“I don’t understand why a world champion only comes into play for the last minutes of such an important match”
“If you want to make a difference, you can’t wait until the end of the match, nor can you expectAntoine Griezmann solves while entering in the 90th minute, he confides on the betting site Betfair, of which he is ambassador. I don’t understand why a world champion for France, a former Atletico Madrid star for years and a multi-million euro rookie from Barcelona only comes into play in the last minutes of a match as important as the one against Atletico. “
“It shows me that something is wrong with the team, because if you don’t make Griezmann play in a game of such importance, you assume that he is not at his best and that he is a bad rookie. The situation in Barcelona at the moment is a little worrying, and they could end up losing the La Liga. “
He does not want to believe in tensions between managers and staff
“There are rumors that executive players are disrespectful to Barca staff, but I want to believe that this is not the case and that there is always some harmony around it,” he continues. the coaches have to work together to find the best solution. I think the main problem may be this long period without playing which seems to have hurt Barcelona. “

“They still have time to recover but the pressure mounts if they want to avoid losing their title against Real Madrid. The confinement cannot be an excuse since all the other teams have been faced with the same situation. If Barça loses La Liga and is eliminated from the Champions League by Naples, it will not be the fault of confinement. “
