Live thread: Ronald Koeman& #39;s press conference ahead of the game against Ferencváros.
Koeman: "We want to start the Champions League well, win the game and have peace of mind."
Koeman: "There is always pressure when you are a Barça player or coach. There is pressure to win games. It& #39;s normal for there to be difficult moments, but we are optimistic about tomorrow& #39;s game. We have to go from game to game."
Koeman: "Dembélé is training well. It& #39;s true that in the first half he lost a lot of balls, but it& #39;s also part of his way of playing. I told him to play more openly and the minutes he played in the second half were better."
Koeman: "Messi is happy, he& #39;s playing well, he wants to be the captain of the team and play. I have no complaints, I have no doubt about his performance. He will surely score in the next games."
Koeman: "We& #39;ve played four games and we& #39;ve scored eight goals, I don& #39;t know if there is any team who does better. I& #39;m not worried about scoring goals, we have enough quality. The last two games we& #39;ve also played against teams that defend very well."
Koeman: "I& #39;m not disappointed, all the players are trying to do their best, we must improve things in the game. We train with intensity."
Koeman: "I don& #39;t know what was missing in previous years for Barça to win the Champions League. If we fail this season, I will be able to answer that."
Koeman: "Ansu and Pedri are ready to be starters. It doesn& #39;t depend on age, it depends on performance. I am very happy for them, they are young and they will have ups and downs in which we will have to help, they are both doing very well."
Koeman: "Griezmann knows his situation perfectly and the only thing he can do is work hard."
Koeman: "We& #39;re not the top favourites to win the Champions League, but we can go far."
Koeman: "Rest for Busquets or De Jong? The game on Saturday is not important for now, the important game for now is tomorrow& #39;s one."
That concludes Koeman& #39;s press conference. End of thread.
