Deco: The referee’s penalty against Barcelona was too harsh and the club will not make any signings in the winter window

After attending the club's congress, Barcelona director Deco accepted an interview with the media. He stated that he would appeal against head coach Flick's second yellow card. In addition, he also emphasized that there would be no action in the winter transfer market.

Regarding whether his previous remarks about the team's work were a knock on the players, Deco denied: "I don't like to talk about these things in front of outsiders. I prefer internal communication because I respect our internal rules very much. The reason why we won last season was because of hard work, not It's a warning."

Talking about the difficult victory against Girona, Deco said: "When you win the game, the outside world always has higher expectations for you. We performed very well last year, so people naturally have higher demands on us this year. In addition, we encountered a lot of injury problems, and last year it was the defense. This year it’s the frontcourt. We are looking for balance and the national team competition also brings injuries. The season is long and we had a difficult time last November and December. "

Regarding the upcoming El Clasico, Deco clearly stated: "This game will not determine the league championship. We know there's still a lot to improve on, like all teams, but this game won't determine the outcome of the entire season. The opponents are stronger than last year. "

Regarding the winter transfer window, Deco said: "At present, we do not need to enter the market. No players have asked to leave and this has not affected our transfer policy Omit. But if things get out of hand or we need a player, we'll keep an eye on it. "

Talking about referee Manzano's penalty, Deco said: "The head coach said he did not insult the referee. We believe it is necessary to appeal because sometimes the penalties imposed on us are indeed too harsh and always biased towards the extreme. We will take legal measures to deal with it, and we often face various adverse factors. Come to Madrid and see, we will not get involved in these political games. Maybe some things are too harsh on us, but what we need to do is improve ourselves. "

Regarding Yamal's performance, Deco explained: "He plays well in the team. important role. As the head coach said, we won the game as a team and performed better, but of course there were individual players who stood out. Although Yamal is young, he is already very mature and we should allow him to develop with peace of mind. He is a special player and his growth at Barcelona deserves to be celebrated. "

Regarding the players' dissatisfaction with overseas games, Deco expressed his understanding: "This is a normal reaction. That game is still far away and we have a lot of games to win first and now is not the time to talk about Miami. We know a long trip would be bad for both teams, so we shouldn't think too much about it, it's just too far away. "
