It is necessary to remember that five of them -Yuste, Castro, Macià, Cubells and Fort- already did team with him in his previous stage. "For me it is a pleasure have all these people, that are extraordinary and of big professional success. They put to the service of the Barcelona because they want to to the club. They put his talent and sabiduría to the service of the Barça in a very complicated situation. Economically it is a ruin, but will give him the turn to base of work very done and to sell to the club by all the world", said Joan Laporta.

It was a big idea of our director of campaign, and the sentence that went out in the canvas is kind and nice", commented.

"It forms part of the rivalry of the world of the football, never have wanted to offend to anybody. Has irony, but already is. Our intention was not that they took it to him badly. Florentino know that it took it to him with sense of the humour. This gives life to all this show that is the football, but without happening you of limits, that are the violence or acts that do not have fit", explained.

Xavi, Mateu Alemany and the campaign

The ex president and current precandidato also answered on Xavi Hernández, that pronounced indirectly on the elections in an open letter. "We want to win and have a trainer that train, some players that enjoy, that there is a technical office that work... We are very concentrated and do not want to give names for no desestabilizar. We can not go in in argucias to give names by a lot of path that have in the Barcelona".

Joan Laporta also pronounced on Mateu Alemany, one of the names that have been related with his precandidatura. "To the big team that have will go adding people that will accompany us in this challenge. It is a person of a prestige and experience very important. But I will keep the reservation. I will announce the managerial team along the campaign", signalled.

In definite, Joan Laporta did balance of his campaign to date. "It is the third week, progresses properly. We have marked profile. We have had a good activity. We have not committed errors of the first week; neither in the second after the meeting with the confederation of penyes. And afterwards, as in the third have visited the distinct headquarters in the crags. We have marked the profile with the message to the partners and to the peñistas. A message that we want to go back the self-esteem to the barcelonismo. Engine of optimism", sentenced.
