The Blaugrana team has a Europa League date next Thursday, March 10 at 9:00 p.m. They will receive the Turkish team, Galatasaray, at the Camp Nou. Xavi Hernández commiserated with the media today at the press conference prior to that match. Here are the highlights.
About Galatasaray Domènec is a friend, he is a great coach, he has a lot of experience. The game model is very similar to ours. He needs time, he is a game changer in a league that he may not know as well but he has the ability to do well. Tomorrow it will complicate us, they have had a good Europa League.
About winning the UEL The first big goal is to be in the Champions League next year. For this you have to either win the Europa League or do well in LaLiga. We are excited to win the Europa League. They are both objective.
Do you see yourself as a favorite at UEL? I don’t see myself as one of the favourites, the favorites must be the last champions. Sevilla are more favorites than us, for sure. We are candidates. Simply very good feelings and positive dynamics, we have to continue.
Will there be rotations? Tomorrow there will be changes, we have a range of possibilities in midfield and up. Fresh people who are training well and deserve to play. Tomorrow there will be rotations. If everyone works, the level does not have to go down.
Ansu Fati He is in the final part of his injury. Hopefully she can start joining the group’s training. He has to be a transcendent footballer, the fact that we have important players in the squad will not take away his role.
About your opponent It is a compact team, with interesting tactical themes and individualities that have surprised us. It is a team that can complicate us and we have to be intense tomorrow.
Haland I didn’t know I had met with Haaland. It is always a good time to sign for Barça. There is no player who has yet said that he will not play for FC Barcelona.
