STORY: Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman said on Saturday (December 12) he is not feeling under pressure despite the team's poor results and insisted he still had the squad on his side as they look to return to winning ways at home to Levante in La Liga on Sunday (December 13).

Barca fell 12 points behind La Liga leaders Atletico Madrid with last week's shock 2-1 defeat to Cadiz and then lost 3-0 at home to Juventus to surrender top spot in the Champions League group and finish second for the first time since 2007.

"I'm feeling fine, I'm not happy with how we are doing this season in the league and we're trying to get the best out of the team while using lots of young players," Koeman told a news conference on Saturday.

Koeman was fiercely critical of the players after the game against Cadiz, in particular how they managed to concede the decisive goal following a throw-in, and he was asked about whether he had been too harsh on his squad in public.

He defended his up-front approach and denied that players were unhappy with his coaching style.

"I always try to respect the players but we're at a club where you have to speak frankly," he said.
