The trainer of the Athletic of Madrid, Diego Pablo Simeone, has confirmed that Diego Coast will be to title against the FC Barcelona and has ensured that "to attack well is necessary to defend better", leaving very clear the intentions of the picture rojiblanco in the Camp Nou

In the previous press conference to the FC Barcelona-Athletic of Madrid of this Saturday in the Camp Nou, Simeone has confirmed the titularity of Diego Coast and has left clear the intentions of the group rojiblanco in the sanctuary barcelonista. It ensures that the key will be the concentration, and imagines the party "with a very strong start by part of the Barcelona and imagine also that it will be the Barça stronger that the one who have seen lately. They play in his stadium, in front of his people, will feel strong and have a plantel extraordinary".

In this sense, the "Cholo" has signalled that "the mental appearance will be basic in the start, will be the one who will determine the walk of the game. In function of how start, the one who have controlled better the concentration will take out advantage". And it has explained the existent disparity between the styles of game of FC Barcelona and Athletic. "To attack well is necessary to defend better. Can do of a lot of ways. Ours is a different style to the of the Barcelona, but neither are a team that do not think in attacking", and has revealed that to face the party will be necessary "to play with spaces and have speed in attack, this will leave us feel us comfortable".

And in spite of that they still have not lost against the Barcelona this season, Simeone has commented the dangerous that it is the FC Barcelona play with the system that play. "It is dangerous with any system and players. If they play Alexis and Pedro by the bands are dangerous, but if it plays Cesc or Iniesta have more possession. Have a lot of variants that does them dangerous, but we have worked in consequence".
