Freixa sheds light on networks in his review of COPE

Former FC Barcelona presidential candidate Toni Freixa, collaborator of the radio program ‘El Partidazo de COPE’, exposed its director Juanma Castaño, on Tuesday, when He was asked about Joan Laporta’s appearance. Expecting a critical tone, they found Toni Freixa praising the president of Barcelona and his charisma. The start of the League stood of Barça, recalled that Florentino Pérez does not submit to press conferences and, if anything, what he criticized about Laporta was that he lacked when criticizing Madrid for joining the summary of the ‘Negreira case’: “He should have announced that he was cutting ties,” said Freixa.

Asked about his opinion on Laporta’s statements, Freixa was surprised by the journalist when he was praised: “Honestly, I give it a good mark. It’s the look that anyone in his place has done.” Castaño quickly points out that Laporta is “good at that” and Freixa goes off script as the journalist expects: “He’s great, it’s obvious. That’s where his charisma got the huge support he had in the social mass. But I think it counts the part of facts that allows you to sell optimismwhich is what the Barça partner has been waiting for.” And he alludes to the team’s good times: “We are living a very good time, right? Four of us, enjoying ourselves.”

That’s where Castaño begins be defensive: “Let’s be serious… September 2.” And Freixa didn’t hold back: “It’s a start in the League that goes beyond what we all expected that makes us happy and hopeful.” Without being given a chance to counter-attack, Freixa launched the first really aggressive taunt: “Let the president of Barça go public in a preliminary press conference.” he is different from the president of another big Spanish clubwho hasn’t given a press conference in about ten or twelve years, I don’t know if we’ll have a chance to comment on this on one of your programs. If it appears, we can comment if he is telling the truthif he doesn’t say, if he puts the focus where it interests him, like everyone else does. “I think Laporta is very good,” he said, pointing out that it was clear that what they were looking for when asking his opinion was a critical voice.

Castaño’s note: “If you believe all this…” And Freixa, unmoved: “In general, I think he has done what anyone in his place could have done. We all know the economic situation of Barça is not the best, that in this market they did not go for players who in other circumstances could have left… that there were negotiations with Nico Williams, but the player we signed It’s Dani Olmo, and there’s also a star appearance. Therefore, you have to make the most of what you have.”

Despite the fact that the president of Barcelona answered all questions without limitationCastaño hopes that Freixa will point out that there are some issues left in the pipeline, but Freixa also disappoints him: “Not really… Maybe know when the stadium will be finishedbut we already know that it will not be easy to finish it soon because it is a huge task. In general, all topics were touched on.”

And that’s when the collaborators brought up the inevitable subject of Negreira to Freixa and whether he thinks it’s okay for Laporta to criticize Madrid for showing up. And Freixa pressed the accelerator: “It is the only Spanish club to appear and Madrid is also where people spend the whole day around the fire. Whenever Barça wins you know that the next day there will be a newspaper in Madrid talking about it. Fixed, you know how it goes. So, of course, Madrid has to participate in this circus.”

Freixa couldn’t resist: “Why aren’t other clubs doing it? What I don’t understand is why Barça didn’t break ties with Madrid. It seems to me that I must destroy them altogether, with a very clear reason. In this particular case, in Laporta’s defense of the institution He has been very clever and remiss in not announcing the breakdown of relations, because it is real hypocrisy. Madrid knows full well that Barcelona has not received any favors refereeing, because what happened was that Mourinho’s Madrid came to hit them hard and we gave them five. Does that hurt, of course it does, so put on a Sister Virginia Patch”, in reference to dressings for lower back pain.

Castaño was nervous and the white vein appears: “We are in September…” Freixa alludes to Barça’s brilliant play: “I am euphoric, at four and rises. Did you see how Madrid plays in Empaté and how Barça plays or did you not see a game?

Castaño is angry, he tells him that he has seen all the games and we will see that at the end of the season. Freixa:Like before the start You all said that the Liga is unbalanced, that Madrid can do everything and Barça can do nothing…”

“We talked in June,” the journalist said. And Freixa started the final ‘sprint’: “Always, always, everything is seen at the end of the course, but at this moment there is a team that has won four games and scored thirteen goals and another that has spent a lot money. to bring who should be the best player in the world the other day I was deaf at home with the commentator from I don’t know what platform said it was a great goal he has a great goal.” Castaño defends the right of the commentator to consider whether it was a good goal or not and Freixa said that “it would be good for the commentator to think that there might be a spectator watching the game that is not from Real Madrid. Can the commentator consider it a great goal, and I can imagine it is more merengue than the Bernabéu.

Exhibition by Freixa had a big impact networks, to the point where the former presidential candidate clarified on his ‘X’ social network account that “I want to take advantage of the ‘hype’ of the dialogue the other day with Juanma Castaño to say that clearly I don’t have ANY presidential aspirations. I leave that to others. “I just love and support Barça like I always do.”
