ILKAY Gundogan was fuming with his Barcelona team-mates' reaction after their El Clasico defeat to Real Madrid.
The Catalans took the lead through the former Man City man, only to be pegged back by Jude Bellingham who added a second in injury time.
And after the game, the German midfielder voiced his displeasure with what he saw in the dressing room after the final whistle.
He told La Liga TV: "I don't want to say something wrong, to be honest.
"But I was (just) in the dressing room, and of course, people are disappointed, but especially after such a big game and such a result, I wish (for) more frustration, more anger and more disappointment.

"This is a little bit the problem. I don't know, there has to be more emotion, especially when you lose and you know you can perform better in certain situations, and you just don't react and it transfers to the pitch."
The 33-year-old, who won five Premier League titles with Man City and the Champions League, asked for his team to show more "resistance."
They already trail Real Madrid by four points at the top, and sit in third place behind surprise package Girona.
"We need to make a huge step otherwise Real Madrid or even Girona is going to run away," Gundogan continued.
"I didn't come here to lose this type of game and let the gap create. There's also a responsibility from myself, a more experienced player, to not allow the squad to just let things happen. No, we need resistance."
It was Jude Bellingham who stole the show in El Clasico.

Madrid’s English golden boy first struck with a world class effort from around 20 yards to level the score after 68 minutes.
And then, in the dying seconds, Bellingham poked home Luka Modric’s mis-controlled touch in the box to silence Barca’s Olympic Stadium with his trademark outstretched celebration.
It is now 13 goals in 13 games for Bellingham in Spain - remarkably, that's more than Real Madrid royalty Zinedine Zidane ever managed in a single season.
