He called on the supporters to stick by the club during the good and bad times, explaining that they are in bad times, financially and during football games.
I am thankful to the club, the fans, we are the best club in the world and we are going to work and try to win many titles. I also want to say a lot of things to the supporters. We need you. We are in a bad moment, financially and football-wise.
The Barcelona legend was appointed following the sacking of Dutchman, Ronald Koeman, after back-to-back defeats against Real Madrid and Rayo Vallecano in back-to-back league games.
Koeman has led the team to a slum this season following the exit of Lionel Messi to PSG. Barcelona have struggled in the league and the Champions League following a series of results.
