A Quote by Ernesto Valverde

Everything is always equal between every player; no one is ahead of anyone. Sometimes one player plays, then others play. It's normal at every club, not just Barca. — © Ernesto Valverde
Everything is always equal between every player; no one is ahead of anyone. Sometimes one player plays, then others play. It's normal at every club, not just Barca.
A player can have all the quality and everything it takes to play for a big-six team or to play for the best teams in the world but then sometimes it happens and it doesn't work out. It's not because of the player or the club, sometimes it's just the environment, it's the wrong timing.
Every player wants to play. That's pretty normal. Every player is unhappy when he's on the bench. That's pretty normal, too. But it's football: only 11 players can start, and the coach has his game plan for each game.
I never lacked respect to the fans and I think every player should be allowed to stay or leave a club. You are not obligated to remain at a club, if you wish to leave then the player has that right.
Every player feels like they can play at this level. Not every player gets an opportunity. I was fortunate to get an opportunity. Everything's kind of worked out real well.
I am not the only player who plays with both feet. There are a lot. Here at Barca, too. I have always, since I was young, wanted to play with both feet, not just one, because it limits you.
I want to play every game, as does every player. But sometimes, you just have to listen to the manager.
In every club, 11 players are happy and the others unhappy. This is correct because if one player doesn't play and is happy, he's crazy.
I need to spend some time at a club, but I also need to enjoy my football to play my best. I didn't lose my enjoyment at Inter. Sometimes I was disappointed, because every player wants to play, but I always did my best for Inter.
Yaya is a great player, a top player that plays in every part of the role.
Every big player who leaves Arsenal is a massive loss. But no player here is bigger than the club.
What makes the difference between a great player and just a normal player is dedication, work, commitment.
I think it's normal that you will lose players if you don't play every season in the Champions League, because that's the intention for every player to be part of that.
Sometimes, when you have an opportunity in your mind but you lose it because you have a contract with the club and you are an important player for that club, and you miss out on what could be your dream, sometimes it is not easy for a player.
A player's mind, body and soul have to be right to get the best out of them, and if a player no longer wants to be at a club then the club should try and get the best deal they can and let the player move on.
To me, a hockey player has to be every sport rolled into one: ice skater, baseball player, football player, etc. It's just incredible to watch!
Not every young player is going to succeed at Barca.
