"In Málaga were not fine to the hour to finalise. We did not know to concretise. It does not be necessary dramatizar, are still in the same line to want to be better". On the stray of the leadership of hands of Valencia, the Asturian technician wanted to relativizar the importance of the classification to these heights of the League. "The leadership to day of today is a mere anecdote. It does not have any importance that the teams that are behind have lost, two, three or four points.

On the possible solutions in front of the jam of the team in this type of parties, Luis Enrique assumed all the responsibility.

In this sense, the Asturian technician advanced that the eleven to receive to the Granada will not be conditioned by the next day of Champions. "The party of the next Tuesday does not condition me. We have to be able to go on with solvency. It interests me be upper to the rival, concede few occasions of goal. It interests me the victory, that is the aim of the party of morning", sentenced.

The last informations appeared in the sportive press ensure that the Uruguayan forward of the FC Barcelona, Luis Suárez, has neglected his alimentary habits during the period of sanction of the FIFA and, consistently, has gone back with sobrepeso in his comeback with the Barça B.
