Luis Enrique makes it clear who's boss after Jeremy Mathieu's "surprise"
The Asturian Luis Enrique Martinez showed plenty of character in his press conference previewing Wednesday's Catalan Super Cup.
He didn't like quotes from Jeremy Mathieu, who said that he was surprised to play as a left-back against Real Madrid in the Clasico defeat at the Bernabeu.
Luis Enrique was clearly annoyed by his comments.
"I prefer that the player says what he thinks to my face," Barça's boss said.
"I would understand him being surprised if I had put him as a striker, but Jeremy has played as a left-back for Valencia many times.
"Mathieu can play in the middle or on the left, if one of the two surprised him, that's done now, let's get on with it."
Elsewhere, Martin Montoya's future at the club had more doubt cast upon it.
The youngster is hardly playing this season and his manager admits he feels sorry for him.
"Actions speak louder than words," Luis Enrique began.
"I appreciate him, but his situation is delicate.. I always use those that I think can help [the team].
"I feel bad for him; he is behaving in an exemplary manner. I admire him and respect him, but he has to wait for his moment... if it comes."
