Barça must be World Champions >> Read My Mind


Iniesta: ‘To be here you have to win the Champions League, which today is very hard. If we win the World Club Championship it will have been a great year and we’ll have a very happy Christmas’

Iniesta: ‘To be here you have to win the Champions League, which today is very hard. If we win the World Club Championship it will have been a great year and we’ll have a very happy Christmas’

Iniesta: ‘Our FC Barcelona team have come here with all the enthusiasm and desire in the world to win again’

Iniesta: ‘This team has shown that we show the same respect whether we’re playing at Hospitalet or at the San Siro. Personally, playing the Club World Cup is an extra motivation. Back in 2009, I had lots of problems with injuries, and I really hope I can play in the Final’

Iniesta: ‘The 3-1 win in the Bernabéu has done a lot for all of us. Even from afar we’ve felt the fans’ euphoria. When you win a game like that it gives you a boost for everything that comes later. Despite the victory against Real Madrid though, there’s a long way to go in La Liga’

– That’s what I love about our players. There’s no time to relax and think about what has been achieved: The focus is always on the next challenge ahead of us.

The Club World Cup may not be the title with the most history, but it certainly sounds prestigious and allows you to wear that ‘World Champions’ golden badge for the whole of the next year!!!

Our first rival is Al-Saad from Qatar. If we beat them, Neymar’s Santos from Brazil would await in the final.

Let’s not underestimate any other teams in the competition but, to be honest, anything but coming back to Barcelona with the trophy would be considered a failure. No pressure then, boys!!

FC BARCELONA, WORLD CHAMPIONS?? YES, PLEASE!!!!!
