Manager Quique Setien was sacked three days after the defeat, with Dutch coach and former Barcelona player Ronald Koeman set to replace him.
Gerard Pique described the defeat as hitting "rock bottom" for Barcelona. "We feel devastated, although shame is the real word I'm looking for. We cannot afford to compete like this because it's not the first, the second or the third time that something like this has happened," he told reporters. "This is very painful but I hope it serves some purpose... We all need to reflect deeply, the club needs lots of changes, I'm not talking about the coach, players - I don't want to point the finger at anyone but the club needs changes on a structural level." "If new blood needs to come for the club to change course then I'm not untouchable and I'll be the first to leave if needs be, because it seems as if we've hit rock bottom. We all have to reflect about what is the best thing for the club and for Barca." Fulham are returning to the Premier League after one season in the Championship.
