Laudrup: It s difficult to predict the outcome of El Clasico. Barcelona s key player is Pedri

. It was clear that he needed someone around him to advise him and guide him in the best way possible. I understand the media and fans, when they see what he does, will be excited to declare that he will be the best in the world if he isn't already, but be careful. He is still in the process of maturing and, like I said to Vinicius, he needs help. A person is not an adult at 17, 18 or 19, and growth as a player must be accompanied by growth as a person.

Q: Can the same be said about Mastantono? Is the outside world's praise of him a little too much?

Laudrup: He's very talented, but again, he's a very young guy. I've heard some people say that he needs to give more. Calm down. Don't put so much pressure on him that he might get crushed. But what really amazes me is how many starts he made in his first season against players competing at his position. Xavi Alonso is the one who knows him best and knows his upper limit best.

Q: Last question. Do you think it was right to cancel the Villarreal-Barcelona match that was scheduled to take place in Miami?

Laudrup: I don’t want to get involved in how this matter was planned, nor how the decision was ultimately made. First it was decided to play, and then it was decided not to play. I am from another era and I don’t understand why a domestic league has to be played abroad. I don't care if it's Spain, Italy or some other league. If football was a sport that needed publicity or promotion, I might still understand, but that's not the case. Football belongs first to the fans. Why do Villarreal fans have to go to Miami to watch their team play? It makes me think it's just about money, but mind you, I understand that too, but they should say that's the underlying reason.
