Gerard Pique has admitted that Barca structurally needs changes.

According to the Barca defender, the club needs new blood to help improve the squad depth even if it will cost his position.

Pique spoke after the 8-2 humiliation of the Blaugrana by Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals of the Champions League in Lisbon, Portugal.

 

 

He defined the loss as a disgrace at the highest level which should never happen to the club anymore.

He reflected on Roma’s loss last two seasons, Liverpool’s semi-finals comeback in 2018/2019 and the recent against the Bundesliga side.

"It was a horrible game," Pique said at full time.

"It's a disaster.

"Disgrace is the word.

"You can't compete like that.

"It's not the first, second or third time this has happened to us.

"It's very tough, very tough, and I hope something [good] comes out of this.

"We all need to reflect.

"The club needs changes. I'm not talking about the coach or the players.

"I don't want to single out anybody, the team structurally.

"The club needs changes of all kinds because it's not the first time this has happened to us, nor the second or third.

"No one is indispensable.

"I'm the first person to step forward.

"If new blood has to come in and the dynamic [has to] change, I'll be the first person to leave because I think we've hit rock bottom.

"We all need to look and reflect on it internally and decide what is best for the club, what is the most important thing."
