A Barcelona player spoke about his dissatisfaction with the role he played this season and indicated that German coach Hans Flick was not fair to him.

Midfielder Pablo Torre said: "We spent the preparation period with a number of young players, and I felt that I was in good shape. Indeed, Flick wanted me to stay."

He continued: "He spoke to me and told me it would be difficult to get minutes, and I already knew that from the start; he didn't need to say it. But you still hold on to the hope of seizing any opportunity; football has many injuries, and you must always be ready."

He added: "That was a decision I made with my family and agents, and it was a great season. It's unfortunate what happened in the Champions League, but we had a high-level season."

He concluded: "I believe I deserved to play more. I was performing well. The competition was strong, and it was difficult to get in, but I see what happened as unfair, and I told him that in a private conversation between us.
