Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde knows fans are unhappy after their 0-0 draw with Champions League opponents Slavia Prague.
Valverde explained that his players didn’t manage to convert their chances into goals and it’s normal for the supporters to expect more from the Catalans.
“It’s okay for people to demand [more],” Valverde said after the game.
“You always like to win. Today, the truth is that we have not been right [when it has come to converting the] clear chances that we have had.
“They, without creating clear opportunities, caused danger when they stole the ball from us because they came out very fast against us [on the counter attack].
“We couldn’t convert the dominance we had into opportunities.”
Barcelona produced another below-par performance after losing 3-1 at Levante on Saturday, and Valverde acknowledged that pressure is piling on his team.
“The other day we lost against Levante and we understand that it wasn’t one of our best games,” he added.
“Neither that one nor today’s. We haven’t played two perfect games and we know that there is a lot of pressure towards the team and we have to bounce back.”
