The change has been radical and has a lot to talk in recent months. However, it seems that Bojan who is less concerned about the situation at the moment.

What role played by the famous believes environment in the success or failure of a player in the club?
They have a very important role, because public opinion is always decisive. I do not think that they are enemies, but we must bear in mind that football is not only stress last season were inevitable ...
Only thing is that I think this season is new. Before it, for better or for worse, is already past. There is still much ahead of championship and that is still many times and have opportunities to seize.
Since its debut in the first team has become a character who is always in the eye of the hurricane, how it takes a person of your age that people judge him without knowing?
when you play badly.
And as you go after the things that have happened this year?
Although 18 years have I think I have things clear and, gradually, as I grow as a player and person. I believe that in recent months I've matured a lot. Last year helped me grow, but I still learn many things missing from inside the dressing room.
The position of the striker is gathering more praise, but also the most compete, because it appears that the club has occupied the traditionally a crack abroad, feels that fighting the rest of the world to get the job?
I just fighting with myself, to grow as a player and get everything you need to be able to play here. In the template I have several cases, such as Puyol, Iniesta and Messi, all of them have gone through the youth ranks of the club and are now triumphing as holders fixed in the first team.
What do you think is its peak in the world of football?
That's hard to say, because in football you never know. The important thing is to be prepared for everything that has to go.
One of his best friends, Gerard Pique, went abroad to vent, do not you pick the curiosity?

Now that was just the year and it's time to take stock, have you They also have these gestures. Anyway it is the image that is visible from the outside, inside the dressing room are equal.
Pep Guardiola has also insisted that much wants to protect Bojan, but his way is not giving too many minutes ...
He also was at the time a young player and has experience, I guess I want to instill.
In the game against Valencia, Samuel Eto'o went directly toward the bench to celebrate their regret not having gone to the Euro?
Not at all. At that time the situation was very clear that he was in, I needed a rest.
His colleagues are still recall his protective instincts aroused image, do you agree with that label?
I do not think you are helpless because I say, I guess for being the child of the team, perhaps the image that I need protection. But there are many moments that goal with you. Keita also ran to the deputies before the Derby, does the team have a slogan?
No, it was coincidence, the day of the Valencia I was the first I left the bench and he was coming over there and we embraced. As the goal is far from the bench as we usually do not hold well.
He has 18 years, a good contract, the future insured ... What is your main concern right now?
Concerns at any sport. Things will go well the team and the only thing I do is continue to grow as a player and person. I was still much to learn, it's normal, I have 18 years. Although by asking, I'd like to get a place at the Camp Nou one day.

When I'm not playing or coaching, I have a normal life. I try to disconnect from the world of football and relax with friends. I go to class, I can not study hard but try not to lose the pace because I would like to study in INEF mountain. For the rest, I go out with friends, we're going to take something, to the movies ... Anyway I do not often have evenings free, or because I have class or training or games.
Do you lazy to do things normal knowing that everyone will recognize him?
You have to get used to this life, things that would hopefully be able to erase, but it is so and what you have to accept. If I am lucky that I do well in football, and as is always the case before I get used to this standard of living better.
Is there any trick to go unnoticed?
At first I put a cap, but then you realize that you just know anyway and that's why I prefer to be normal. So far I have observed, just remember that I once met a group of kids who were a little past laps, made me feel a little uncomfortable. I think in our case there are people who go crazy when their idol perhaps because it is the only time you see it. But most of us are ordinary people, so we felt a little uncomfortable.

The truth is that I realize that perhaps people who had never had greeted me and since that game in the boat closer to a completely different role. But I have always been clear that people really love me and I are also very few people I know keep one respect. My parents are largely responsible for this.
Throughout this time, any advice for survival in the boat?
Yes, we must be very patient because this is a very difficult world around you and let slip.
