GOOD TO GO FOR THE GAME AGAINST CELTA 🔥⚽ | FC Barcelona 🔵🔴

Inside, we are united, motivated, and we keep competing. I see the locker room very well, training very well. We are united with the president, with Deco, with the players, and want to finish the season in the best way. Nothing else, what we cannot control is difficult for us, but well. From within, the message is one of unity, calmness, work, and a desire to do well. Just a message of thanks. From the first day that we created expectation, we have battled, we have given everything. I am happy with the players’ commitment, very much so. Commitment, how

the fans have treated me. I think they are are of the reality of the situation. The situation is difficult, above all financially. It’s been difficult to compete and, nevertheless, where the situation is tough, we won two trophies last season and there are still two to fight for this season. We have to take a step forward all together. The players, the coach to try and compete the best way we can for what remains of the season. I have seen it annoys them to lose, that they have great commitment. They want to win. From the first minute

I have felt that about all the players we have had in the squad. The most important thing is that the players are down and are bothered by losing. We will compete wherever we get to. Last season it was enough

for two trophies, this season we will see. We will see where we are at the end of the season but the reaction of the team is one of being annoyed and they are coming into the end of the season annoyed and that is important. We want to win. For me, he has to be one of the

captains of the team in the future. For me, there is no comparison. But we are always talking about exits, about Gavi. We will make an exception because he is injured and cannot participate. But Gavi has to be the future of Barça. I see a united team, that wants to win, wants to do well, to improve and I think we are still in time, as Lewandowski says, we have time. We have time, I want to think positively. I still think positively that we can end the season well. We are trying to correct the errors, on an

individual level and a collective level. We are looking at each game and what has happened to us. We put together a video to optimise our peformance on an individual and collective level so the players can be at the best level to compete and, in the end, to win. In the end, they will judge us for winning matches. That’s what it is about, correcting, trying to get better and from now until the end of the season and let’s hope that we can see an improvement. There’s no lack of commitment and attitude. It’s about collective errors, individual

errors, lack of concentration. There has been a lot time when we have not been able to compete as we did last season, for example. Now our situation is to finish the season well and focus on Celta tomorrow and on the Champions League tie. In the league we will try to pull back the deficit and we are not worried about anything else. My perception is that we are going to do well, things will work out. The players have given it all, despite the draw against Granada the other that was a shame and an accident, I think

we have put in two good performances. Against Osasuna and Alavés away and now we have important games and I think we will see the team’s reaction. I think that and I want to think that. The president sees it that way as well, we are united on the inside. I have the complete confidence of the president, Deco and the players. I’ll say it agian, the commitment and desire of the players moves me and let’s see where it takes us. This doesn’t mean that I am saying that we are going to win the Champions League, it means

that we are positive and united to compete to whenever as we did last season. I am motivated more than ever to do things well, involved to the maximum, because Barça is an institution that I feel, that I love. So, I will work hard so that this season ends up working well too. Tomorrow we have an opponent that I believe is one of the most tactically well-worked. Benítez is a very methodical coach in this sense. I think Celta deserves many more points or has deserved many more points than they currently have due to different circumstances during

the season, but I think they do things very well. They are clear about what they want to play, they can vary the system, a line of 4, a line of 5, 2 forwards, 1 forward. Benítez is a great coach, and I think his team has a very clear idea. Therefore, a very complicated away game, it is true that things are going better for us away from home than at home. So, tomorrow is a great opportunity to show that we can continue competing. I think that question you have asked me many times. It’s that way in

each moment of the season. It’s Barça and we are obliged to get success, win matches. If we want to compete and still have a chance of the league, we have to get three points. We hae already made too many mistakes, we can’t afford any more slip ups. It’s about not making mistakes and trying to get Girona and Real Madrid to not be able to slip up. We don’t depend on ourselves at this point in the season but we have to carry on. I am still positive, motivated and thinking that we can end the season well

and that is what I am working on. I think it is the moment to be united. There are still four months of the season left and it is not the time to talk about departures. At least for us on the inside. We are talking about Celta, how they attack well, how they defend well, how to get better and how to correct things. Then comes the Champions League, important matches. We are thinking about this, we are not thinking about next season. We are taking it step by step. We know tomorrow is important and the three points

are really important to improve our league position. Little by little. We are not thinking about Napoli at the moment, we are thinking about Celta, in how to stop their strengths, thier weaknesses and from there there will be time to think about Napoli for next Wednesday.
