Footage also appeared to show Messi pointedly ignoring Sarabia, with the Argentinian turning away from Setien's No. 2 as he tried to give him instructions during a cooling break. "But this is normal. I was not an easy player to deal with either. You have your own vision and the important thing is to convince everyone to defend a common cause."
On the suggestion of arguments in the dressing room after the match, Setien said:"When you don't win and when there is a one-off moment like that free kick, everyone looks for something. This is the circus we're involved in." "I have no problem admitting this is a new situation for me and I am in a period where you learn a lot and you go little by little doing the things you want to do. But that's nothing to do with the players, it's a process that needs time."
