• Pesic. Barça costume mutiny assumption: "Everyone knows the requirement of Pesic"

The Montenegrin pivot wing of Barça, Nikola Mirotic said Thursday about some information published in recent days about him that it might seem like a campaign against his person , that this happens because he is in Barça and "there are many people screwed up, who have not surpassed yet and they will never overcome it. "

"I don't say anything to anyone, it's their life and they can take it however they want, but it hurts , so they will have their reasons," the player added. "All of that makes me laugh because in our team, players, technicians, managers and fans are very close and more excited than ever," said the Montenegrin.

In one article there was talk of an alleged discontent in the locker room with Barcelona coach Svetislav Pesic , and Mirotic was pointed out as one of the leaders of an alleged costume campaign against the Serbian coach.

The Barca forward believes that the team's progress is "positive" because they have started the season well. " We are where we want to be , even with all the casualties and with all the injuries we have had, we have won ten of thirteen official matches. We are first tied in the Euroleague and very well in the Endesa League," he said.

"There is a lot of talk about this team. There are positive people, but, of course, there are people with a lot of evil. We know very well who they are and all they want is to break the team and its dynamics," says Mirotic. "They take things about me, about my looks, my numbers and things like that. They can say what they want because it is their job, but what we have to do is pass from them and control what we can control," says the Barcelona player.

Mirotic is of the idea that the team "has to speak on the track" getting victories and considers "normal" to miss some or to win tightly others, such as last Sunday against Fuenlabrada.

"This is Barça and it is normal to talk about us for good and bad, but there will always be people who will always speak badly and, I repeat, we have to move on from them," he said.

To leave all this behind, consider that the team has to enjoy and is what it is doing. "It is true that there are times when the team is tired or has some added physical problem, but this is basketball and part of the game," he insisted.

As for the environment of the team, the power forward does not hide that he is "very happy", like the rest of his teammates: "We are in a process in which the team is growing as a group. Now we have the loss of Victor (Claver) , but the team is looking forward, we hope to respond and pull forward. "
