Szczesny: Joan Garcia has the potential to become a world school, and I will contribute to it

In an interview with Polish media Sport.pl, Szczesni talked about the competition with Joan Garcia, last season and Penia this season.

Schchensny, who had announced his retirement last summer, returned to join the team due to the shortage of the goalkeeper position in Barcelona and finally won the three championships. The player smiled and said in the interview: "It's all like a tailor-made for making a movie."

"I never thought I had the potential to be the best goalkeeper in the world. Although I played in the top stadium for more than ten years, when I observed other goalkeepers, I could see that some people were faster than me, with advantages that I didn't have, and some people had strong ability to read games, some were modern goalkeepers, some were excellent at feet, and I could always see those players who were half a grade higher than me."

"I made up for all my shortcomings through long-term and stable performance. In the goalkeeper position, there was no What is more important than stability. Every goalkeeper makes mistakes and may make the team lose some games. But when we look back at 50, 100, 200 or even 500 games, the best goal will prove itself. They can guarantee a certain level of performance, which is why I can always gain a foothold."

Speaking of Barcelona's No. 1 goalkeeper Joan Garcia this season, Szczesni said: "I saw him last year when I met Espanyol, which left a very deep impression on me. After training together at Barcelona for three days, I realized that I could contribute to the training of this player who might become the best goalkeeper in the world!"

"It's not that he is the best now, but I see his huge potential . If I can help him grow in any way, not only for the benefit of the team, but also for myself to feel that I have contributed to the growth of this special talent, even if it is just a small part, it is already a huge satisfaction for me."

Speaking of Szczesny defeated Penia in the competition for goalkeepers after Ter Stegen was injured last season, he said: "He paid the price for the team's bad performances several times, and I think Penia also felt my full support. Even if he was on the court, I was very calm about my failure to play."

" Some teammates were even surprised by my attitude and thought how could I be so calm. But if the team can achieve good results, I can accept the whole thing Sitting on the bench for the season, because I still feel like I've contributed to the team. Even if it's just to bring more confidence and calm to Penia, I feel it's valuable. "

" Later on, I felt his support when I became the starting goalkeeper, really! Our relationship seems to be very nervous only in the Western media reports. I know he's frustrated with the whole situation, and I fully understand him. But the coach needs a signal, a change, and it's a wise move to replace the less experienced goalkeeper with an experienced goalkeeper, which is good for the team, and although it disappoints Penia, I never felt a lack of respect or support. We worked very happily in training, but this kind of conflict is attractive to the media, but it's not true."
