Guardiola: ‘In general we played a good game against Sevilla, especially in the first half. We’re pleased that we won in such a difficult stadium’
Guardiola: ‘Sevilla have a fantastic team. We won because we did things well. We give this victory a lot of value. The only sour aspect of the match was that we didn’t convert on all the chances we created. Palop had a fantastic game, he saved four one-on-ones’
Guardiola: ‘We now have to play against Granada and Mallorca, and we’ll go out to win those matches. Almost all the players play in this team. I suppose some players that didn’t play today will play this Tuesday. Between all of them, we’ll get to the end’
Guardiola: ‘I would have liked to compete for this league title until the end, but I don’t know if it will be possible. There’s another team that’s managed to earn better results than we have’
Guardiola: ‘Forget it, we won’t win this Liga’
– However sad Pep’s words may sound, the coach is right. The difference to Madrid (momentarily 7 points) is far too great for The Blaugranas to overcome.
Please note that I’m not saying we are not CAPABLE of making a comeback, my reasoning is that, whatever Barca do, we won’t be ALLOWED to win it. It really doesn’t matter if Pep continues to field our strongest team on a weekly basis, or even if we win all the remaining matches: The damage is already done.
The RFEF and Florentino have made it very clear: It is time for the Spanish Government’s team to lift the National title again. I obviously accept that our away form hasn’t been the best this season but, as our Barca players have explained in the past, there is simply NO WAY that Los Blancos deserve such a major lead on the La Liga table.
Very strange that so many controversial decisions have gone the same way, isn’t it?
REAL MADRID WANT THEIR SPANISH LIGA? SURE, KEEP IT. SEE YOU IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE!!!!
