Yesterday, Barça beat Getafe 3-0 by playing great soccer and showing that this team is worth it. The Madrid side tried to hold on, but they focused on defending and trying to stop the onslaught from those from the Ciudad Condal. Ferran Torres was the architect of two goals and made sure his team started the match comfortably.
Ferran Torres has been earning points at Barça until becoming one of Flick's indispensable players. The coach is trusting the Spaniard and, for now, the forward is responding in the best way. Yesterday, Ferran spoke after the victory and Paco González, a famous broadcaster, replied against him.
Ferran Torres's role in this Barça
Ferran Torres was key as a game-changer last season and achieved better numbers than several starters in Europe. He always kept a good attitude and performed when it was his turn to step onto the field from the bench. Heading into the final matches of the 24-25 season, he started to earn a spot in the starting line-up.
Since that moment, Lewandowski has been in the background due to an injury and Ferran Torres's good form. Yesterday, the Spanish striker spoke after the victory over Getafe and his words didn't please everyone. In addition to receiving a harsh response from the rival team's coach, Bordalás, the broadcaster Paco González also didn't hold back.
What Ferran said was: "We knew it was going to be a tough match. They often don't propose anything and try to commit too many fouls, in my opinion, but we managed it well."
Paco González's response
In response to these statements, Paco González said: "I think Ferran must have some negative memory because what he said is nonsense. Getafe didn't commit many fouls, nor hard fouls either. In fact, Getafe were even too soft."
Bordalás's statements revolved around the fact that Barça's squad cost is much higher than his own. This is an excuse that the Madrid team's coach uses repeatedly when things don't go as he expects. What is clear is that Ferran Torres's words didn't please everyone, as is normal.
In principle, it's unlikely there will be more comments on the matter, but we can't lose focus. We'll have to keep a close eye on Ferran Torres so we don't miss any updates.
