Marc Cucurella said on Thursday in a press conference that his former team Barcelona aren't patient enough with youth players.

The Getafe winger, who formed at Barcelona, lamented the lack of opportunities for youngsters at Camp Nou ahead of his return on Saturday. 

"I think that at Barcelona, which is a big club, the important thing is to win in the end. Maybe they don't have the patience that they had. As a cantera player, which I am, they don't give you the chances you deserve. I don't like it because I expected they would be more confident in the youth academy (cantera). In football the important thing is to win. Winning is more important than having patience."

 

On the weekend's game, he added: "For sure it will be a special game, I was there many years. To play at a stadium like Camp Nou is special. We're in good form, it will be a good game."
