"He is a great manager, he has demonstrated that and, as he showed with Barça B, he can get the best out of his players," Bartra said in an interview with TV3.

Bartra also bemoaned the fact Barça B had been relegated from La Segunda A, though.

"It's a shame they can't continue in the second tier; I feel really bad that they have been relegated," he contunued.

"They're a team that deserves to be in the Segunda A. I know what it cost to get into that division, so hopefully they can get promotion again."

The 24-year-old also spoke about next weekend's elections.

"I know both Jan [Joan Laporta] and Bartu [Josep Maria Bartomeu]. They are the two who seem most likely and I think either would be good for the club."

Finally, he added that he is really excited about becoming a father for the first time in the near future.
