I would like to return to Barcelona as Real Madrid’s coach because it would mean I’ll be here for many years thanks to earning good results. I don’t see any coaches worrying about how they may be received. My concentration won’t falter if the stands are against me. I don’t care. I just want to play football and enjoy it. That’s all.”
“I’m not worried about the referee. I think referee Iturralde is a referee supporter, not a Barcelona supporter. It will be easier for him to do his job well if the players help him. It will be harder if they don’t. Our intention is to help the referee.”

“The Clasico may be decisive, but we don’t know yet. What’s clear is that we intend to win the match. We know it is a very important game and we will be optimistic in our search for victory. We will know if it turns out to be decisive at the end of the season.”
“There is much at stake for all of us. I’m just another player on this team. We all feel the responsibility of having to play a good game. I don’t feel more pressure than the rest. I always want more, but my team-mates have the same thoughts and goals I have.”
“I hope the story changes this season. We haven’t lost a single game yet, which is important because makes it us confident. We know it will be a difficult match, but we are proving to be a solid side. I feel confident and I hope we earn a good result.”
“It will only be natural for the Camp Nou crowd to greet our coach badly after what happened in the Champions League semifinals last year when he was at Inter Milan. But we are not worried about it. We will concentrate hard and will not dwell on anything unrelated to the game itself.”
“Each team has its own style and identity, but both are playing well. We do what we think is best to win. We want to play well and score goals. In the end, all that really matters are the three points at stake.”

“I honestly didn’t think we would arrive at the Camp Nou in such a good situation. There are many new faces on this team on every line, including the bench. It wasn’t easy, but we’ve become a very strong group by playing games together.”
“Jose Mourinho gets a 10 out of 10 as coach and even more as a person. I never met him before he arrived, and he may seem very serious from the outset, but the closeness he seemed to have with his men always caught my attention. Now that I’ve met him personally, all I can say is ‘hats off to him’.”
