Sometimes players aren't playing where they feel or play best, but they must put their all into what's best for the team.
Quote by -Quique Setien
Every player has what they have but some outperform themselves. It's about learning and expanding your abilities and becoming even better still.
Quote by -Quique Setien
If a player is receptive and really wants to learn and improve, you might be surprised what they are capable of doing.
Quote by -Quique Setien
When you come to a new team there's always uncertainty about how they're going to respond.
Quote by -Quique Setien
VAR is a tool we have that can make us better. But we must use it and have a clearer vision of reality.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I always tell the players that we have to expect the best version of our opposition.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I like to have fewer players. That way, everyone is plugged into what you're doing. There is a risk attached to that sometimes but it's good to have a smaller squad. People have more chance of playing; they're ready and more motivated. Having 18 real players is better than having 25 or 26 not playing.
Quote by -Quique Setien
What hurts me, and always had done, is picking teams and having to leave players out.
Quote by -Quique Setien
It is not easy to change things in a footballer that other coaches told him were very good.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I have convictions: once an idea's in my head, it's very hard to get it out.
Quote by -Quique Setien
Las Palmas, Lugo, Betis... if you followed them, you know we had an identity. You saw it, we played good football.
Quote by -Quique Setien
You read things in the papers but I never really expected Barcelona to choose me. It all happened in a hurry.
Quote by -Quique Setien
If Messi didn't have it clearly in his head that Barcelona have a winning project, maybe he would go, but Barcelona are always looking to have a winning project.
Quote by -Quique Setien
In these fixtures, the past is forgotten. What is rewarded is the present. This is a Clasico: two teams that will be at 100 percent regardless of the situation.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I have no problem with people expressing their opinion as long as it is with respect.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I take into account the importance and the hierarchy of each player, but in a club like Barca with so many players... I know that some are going to get angry because not all are fit and it is a decision that I must take responsibility for, and that is what I do.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I understand that it is very difficult for Barca and Madrid to win everything until the end.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I will always try to make my team play well because that way we are more likely to win.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I will try to avoid anything that distracts me from the job or takes away my energy.
Quote by -Quique Setien
If I win playing badly, I will not go home happy and I will never tell the players that the result was worth it.
Quote by -Quique Setien
Regarding the VAR, it is a tool that can undoubtedly make us better. You have to use it because it gives us a clearer view of reality when you have to make quick decisions.
Quote by -Quique Setien
Yesterday I was walking past cows in my village and today I am at Barca, coaching the best players in the world. This is the pinnacle for me.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I have seen some great players doing wonderful things, but being so decisive for so long over 12 or 14 years as a professional, I think no player, maybe only Pele in his time, has shown that level. He shows it in every game. I don't know how many hat-tricks he's had.
Quote by -Quique Setien
You will see that I am a direct and sincere person, I don't beat around the bush and I will address something if I see it.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I listen to everyone but I have my ideas... you know my ideas, my way of playing, and if I have to die by them I will.
Quote by -Quique Setien
We all have to sacrifice a part of ourselves, including the players, for the good of the team.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I didn't think Barca could go for me, I have no honors, I don't have a great CV.
Quote by -Quique Setien
I love to watch and have great footballers and if I can watch Neymar every day, just imagine.
Quote by -Quique Setien
Madrid's players are carried along by the football itself, what they feel in each moment; they're not guided by tactical rigor or a specific structure.
Quote by -Quique Setien
Madrid's anarchy can make planning difficult: they're unpredictable. But if you can be defensively sound and use the ball well, making the most of the space they leave, you can do them damage.
