Barcelona is going through a stage of doubt after the team's results receded and lost the top spot in the Spanish League, and those results reflected the coach Kiki Sittin's relationship with the players, and raised questions about his ability to control the team's stars.
According to press reports in Spain, Sittin avoids confronting the stars of the team, and avoids provoking them even in his changes during the matches, where he suffices with changes that include second-class players.
These reports were reinforced by a new video clip broadcast by Movistar, in which Argentine star Lionel Messi appears, while ignoring the talk of Ider Sarabia, assistant coach of the Catalan club, during the interruption of the Barcelona match and Celta Vigo.
Messi uttered words before turning his back on Sarabia during the match, which ended in a 2-2 draw, which allowed Real Madrid to take the lead two points behind Barcelona.
FRACTURA TOTAL EN EL EQUIPO…
La tensión en el vestuario del FC Barcelona es más que evidente. Las cámaras de 'El Partidazo de Movistar' captaron el momento en el que Leo Messi pasó olímpicamente de Eder Sarabia cuando iba a darle unas indicaciones.

Striker Luis Suarez made statements that were understood to be a direct attack on Citin, when he answered a question about the team's negative results outside the field this season, and said, "The coaches must find a solution to this."
The Spanish newspaper Marca reported the deterioration of the relationship between the Barcelona and Sittin stars, and indicated that these players expressed their dissatisfaction with the program approved by the coach in the exercises.
The newspaper pointed out that the changing room witnessed a sharp debate between the players after the end of the Celta Vigo match.
For its part, the newspaper "AS" confirmed that the Catalan club administration is not satisfied with Sittin, and did not accept a number of its changes during previous confrontations, and the newspaper pointed out that Sittin's failure to crown any title means his departure at the end of the current season.
