Barcelona president Joan Laporta was furious with the way he felt the team faded at the end of big games last season.
Barça lost both Clásicos against Real Madrid to stoppage-time goals, results which if reversed would have flipped the final standings at the top of LaLiga between the two sides. In the UEFA Champions League, they could not live with Paris Saint-Germain after being reduced to 10 players as they exited the competition at the quarterfinal stage.
"The team dipped after the 60th minute physically," Laporta said at the end of the campaign in an interview with the club's in-house media.
