Piqu篓娄 Luis Enrique More In Charge Than Messi - RealGM Wiretap
Gerard Piqué says Lionel Messi "carries a lot of weight in the dressing room" at Barcelona but insists Luis Enrique is in charge.
Piqué has told "El Partido de los 12" radio programme: "There is no dressing room without arguments. Luis Enrique and Messi had an argument, but it is all over now, and there is no need to go back over it. The relationship with Luis Enrique has always been good and friendly."
He added: "Luis Enrique is in charge more than Messi, of course. He is the coach, the boss, although Leo carries a lot of weight in the dressing room."
Piqué had his own issues with Enrique this season, such as when he used a mobile phone while a sub on the bench.
Piqué recently had a second child with pop star Shakira, admitted non-sporting problems had been a problem for him earlier in the season but said he was now back on the right track.

"Luis Enrique was not playing me consistently, and it is very difficult to be able to show that you are fine physically. Then there were non-sporting things which affected my path a lot."
David Price Initially Thought Hed Sign With Cardinals - RealGM Wiretap
David Price thought as recently as Tuesday morning that he would sign a seven-year contract with the St. Louis Cardinals. He instead agreed to a seven-year, $217 million deal with the Boston Red Sox a few hours later.
The Red Sox made a final push for Price, even increasing an initial offer, as they also negotiated with Zack Greinke, according to a source.
Casey Close, the agent for Greinke, told Dave Dombrowski that he wanted an answer by Tuesday night on a proposal that had been made to the club. Dombrowski, hedging his bets, then went to Price's agent, Bo McKinnis, with another offer and a similar deadline.
St. Louis had offered Price the richest contract in team history, a seven-year deal worth at least $30 million less than what the left-hander received from Boston.
