Emmanuel Petit draws up a rather terrible observation of the situation of FC Barcelona, focusing in particular on the Ousmane Dembélé case.
Emmanuel Petit had a lot to say when AS handed him the microphone to talk football. The Frenchman spoke about the likely arrival of Kylian Mbappé at Real Madrid, of course, but he also spoke about his former clubs, such as Arsenal and Barcelona. And if he praises the work done by Mikel Arteta with the Gunners, his judgment is more severe regarding the Catalans.
Emmanuel Petit thus denounces the instability which reigns at Barça, where Xavi is criticized. “There are a lot of problems on and off the fieldnotes the 1998 world champion. This club is so political. It’s difficult to have serenity. You can win the Champions League, or La Liga, but in six months that can change. The weather can change very quickly. »
“Dembélé arrived at PSG, he stopped getting injured”
Xavi also got lost on the way, Petit notes. “He has complained about so many things in recent months: the referees, the money, some players who are not fit and who don’t give 100%. He tried to find lots of reasons to explain their difficult season”regrets the French midfielder.
And Petit to question the functioning of Barça at certain levels. “There are so many players injured for weeks and weeks, it’s rather worrying, he is alarmed. When I see Ousmane Dembélé here at PSG, he is not injured at all. He arrived at PSG and stopped getting injured, although he was still injured at Barcelona. I don’t know what’s going on with the medical staff, on the training sessions, I really don’t know. »
