In his usual casual and mocking tone, Gerard Piqué explained in his visit to El Hormiguero de Antena 3 that when he gets into a mess because of his statements or his behavior on a pitch, it is something "almost always premeditated" and he does it to having fun "because" the world of football is a "show, a lie and a farce."

"Normally it is something premeditated. I do it to have a good time. I get discouraged and I have a good time because the world of football is a show. Then we laughed in the locker room," explained the Barcelona center. " In football it's all a lie and a farce . It's all much easier (than people think). The players get along great. The atmosphere is great. When we get into trouble it's because we want some salsa "Piqué added during his visit to the popular program presented by Pablo Motos and where he was accompanied by former tennis player David Ferrer .

Asked about the criticisms he usually receives, Piqué said that when he was young he was affected "more". "Now you spend a bit of criticism. Of course they affect you, but you relativize them. Football is a result," added the Catalan player, who also referred to the current season. "If the ball enters, very well; if it does not enter, then to stay at home and not appear ... Having people against me motivates me more because the better you play, the more you fuck them . The years in the they whistled me in the national team were my best years there because it motivated me more, "he settled.

Piqué, promoter of the new edition of the Davis Cup - which I know will be held from November 18 to 24 at the Caja Mágica in Madrid -, had no doubt in pointing out who is the best tennis player for him: " Federer " .
