Barcelona's new head coach Ronald Koeman said on Saturday that hie is happy with the Balugrana's squad and he accepted the economic reality facing Barca at this time.
After Barca's humiliated 8-2 defeat to Bayern Munich in the Champions League, it was obvious that a cultural reset was needed at the club. Luis Suarez, Ivan Rakitic, Nelson Semedo, Arturo Vidal and Arthur Melo were all shipped out of the club, whilst very little was done in terms of reshaping the team.
"This is also part of the club's financial situation; we have to accept that and learn to work with it," Koeman said.
"We have had three games, against Villarreal and Celta we were very good, against Sevilla, a top team who will fight for the top positions, the physical wear on us was clear," he added. "The performance against Sevillawasn't what we wanted".
"We must improve, but we have to also recognise that we have only been working with this new system for five weeks, like any coach you always crave more time," Koeman noted.
