I Was Given Limited Chance To Impress At Barcelona – Cucurella

Marc Cucurella admits moving to Brighton has been a culture shock.

The former Barcelona B fullback made the move to England last summer.

He told Cadena SER: “The rhythm. The game in a minute can get out of control, in one play they can kill you.

“At Liverpool’s field, in the 20th minute, they disallowed a goal and the whole stadium was pressing. The ground is always full, rival fans always fill it too. People live a lot for football, that makes it the best league in the world.”

Cucurella also said: “I understand that at Barça the only thing that matters is winning. When it was my turn they had a great team, maybe that’s why they didn’t give me the opportunity, to seek the immediate result.

“I did not have that opportunity, that door was closed for me but others were opened for me.”
