Barcelona Players Reportedly Back Coach Ernesto Valverde Despite Criticism
Barcelona's stars are reportedly behind manager Ernesto Valverde despite the team's recent run of poor form and criticism of the tactician following Saturday's 1-1 draw against Athletic Bilbao.
Luis F. Rojo of Marca reported the dressing room "continues to support the coach" even though their record of two points in three games has been a mini-disaster.
Per Rojo's report, Luis Suarez recently reiterated his criticism regarding Valverde's failure to rotate him out of the team prior to their UEFA Champions League exit at AS Roma's hand. Also, Sergio Busquets said, "We have not been solid or consistent."
