“Robert made some unfortunate comments”.
Barcelona winger Pedro Rodriguez was a mix of frustration and happiness after Tuesday evening’s UEFA Super Cup victory but was all smiles on Wednesday morning, leading to more questions about his future than answers.
But Pedro insisted that if he does make the move to England, lack of playing time at Barcelona, rather than money will be the deciding factor. “Whether I stay or go, I will always follow this team”.
However, Pedro downplayed Fernandez’s claims, saying he does not want to leave Barcelona and also admitted that his situation about leaving the team is complicated.
While he doesn’t want to leave the club, the Spaniard is keen to play more football next season and in the presence of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar, the forward is unlikely to feature regularly for the Catalan giants.
“The buy-out clause in Pedro’s contract is not negotiable but this could be his final game”. We may witness the greatest season in La Liga history and another great Champions League with a chalk full of the absolute best Shakespearean drama a soccer fan can enjoy.
He said: “I don’t know if the result was fair, but with the chances we had I’m left with a sweet taste in my mouth”.
However, even without Neymar due to a bout of the mumps, coach Luis Enrique opted for Rafinha ahead of Pedro and was rewarded as he scored after Messi had fired in two brilliant free-kicks to cancel out Ever Banega’s opener for Sevilla. “I am very happy with this latest trophy”.
“We were brilliant in attack tonight but bad in defence”, said Barca’s Javier Mascherano.

“He is a good friend, and if he decides that England is the next step in his career, I am sure he will do very well there”, Torres told The Mirror. And if I go, I will go with my head held high having always given everything. “Everyone knows the situation”, the Coach said, AS reports.
