00:00 I will try to be brief and explain the main reasons for this change of direction.
00:08 You know I am very Barcelona fanatic, thanks for the words.
00:14 I always try to do my best for the club, I am a club man, you know me.
00:19 And the most important is to think about the entity.
00:23 Yesterday when we met with the president, he knows I will do my best,
00:31 always thinking about the priority as a club man.
00:37 I want to thank the president, the board, Rafa, the sports department,
00:47 Deco, Bojan and the board.
00:54 It was important to take this decision to change the direction
00:59 of the players' support and their complicity.
01:03 They made me see that this project has to continue.
01:07 As the president said, we believe in the stability of the club.
01:11 This is a project that I have seen that is not finished, we have to continue.
01:17 We are working well, although this season we will not win any title.
01:21 But it is a winning project.
01:23 And from here, the illusion of the Barcelona fans.
01:26 The fans have made me see that we have to continue,
01:29 we have to keep working, we have to keep fighting.
01:31 These are the main reasons for the change of direction.
01:36 I see myself with strength, with capacity, the staff has shown me this.
01:43 And in the end, for the good of the club.
01:46 I think about the club, I think about the club better.
01:49 This is how I understood in January that it was better to leave for a change of direction.
01:54 The dynamic was positive for three months.
01:57 And from here we sat with the president and in two or three minutes we understood each other perfectly.
02:03 He is as much a fan of Barcelona as I am.
02:06 What we try is the good of the club and the good of the club.
02:10 I am very grateful, I think it is the best decision.
02:13 And from now on, we will work with all the enthusiasm in the world, with this stability.
02:17 I am happy and grateful.
02:19 Thank you all very much.
02:21 [Applause]
