That’s what Valverde had to say in the press conference before the match against Betis. Brought to you by @barcacentre .
Valverde: “We are referring to the game against Real Betis last year, but they are different situations. They have very good players, they aspire to be challenge the top teams in this league and they have the resources to do it. It is an obligation to get 3 points for us.”
“Dembélé? I don’t want to talk too much about him… I’ll leave this topic without comment.”
“Rafinha? He is fighting for a place like the others, but we’ll see what happens. He always has a great attitude.”
“Feelings? If I compare myself to a friend who is in Ibiza I am not so good, compared to another friend who is living very hard situations rescuing migrants I am very well… I will not complain about how I am.”
“With Messi nothing is changed. If he is not 100% we will not risk him.”
“Griezmann is getting better every day. We want our attackers to participate more.”
“Neymar? He always raises expectation. He belongs to another club and I can’t tell you more because I don’t know anything about this.”
“Piqué is a very important player in the dressing room and in general for the club. That he reaches 500 games says a lot about his career, as a prominent player in the history of Barça…”
Will we see different outcome than the Bilbao match?
Valverde: “In Bilbao we played on their half for the last 45 minutes. We had two or three good chances… But in the end they made a great goal that marked the whole game.”
