Gerard Pique believes Barcelona does not need defenders – Football news
Barcelona are currently linked with several defenders around the globe, but Gerard Pique is of the opinion that La Blaugrana are perfect just the way they are.
Last season the Catalan giants had to suffer a lot since their first-choice centre back, Carles Puyol, got injured and the Argentinean star, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Javier-Mascherano-c18071, had to take his place in the centre of defence.
Pique and Mascherano were partnering up well, but the Argentinean player picked up a knock right before the semi-final of the UEFA Champions League and the Catalans had to rely on their young defender, Marc Bartra.
With the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296 played through an injury and
the chances of outscoring their opponents depleted with this news.
Since http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gerard-c14664 Pique is of the opinion that the team is perfect just the way it is and they do not need another player
to strengthen the defence.
While talking about Barcelona’s defence, Gerard Pique said, “Does Barcelona need a centre-back? I look at my team and I am comfortable with what I see. We have enough players.”
The Spanish champions lost 7-0 on aggregate against Bayern Munich and it’s the worst loss they had to concede in the past ten years. A team like La Blaugrana is never expected to lose by such a huge margin and in order to pick themselves back up, they need
new defenders.
The Catalan giants are currently linked with the PSG star and Brazilian defender, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carles-Puyol-c8331, who recently went through another knee surgery, which means that
he will be out of action for quite some time and will not be able to play throughout the upcoming season.
