Former French footballer Jeremy Mathieu has spoken in an interview for 'BeIN Sports France' about Spanish coach Luis Enrique and how he felt under him. "He doesn't talk to you much and doesn't give you too much confidence," he said.
Mathieu says he had a tough time at the end of his time at Barcelona. He started out playing an important role, but in his third season he dropped down the pecking order at the Catalan side. He still doesn't know why: "Maybe that's the way he works. I think that's how Luis Enrique works".
