Probably better than Lucho's. I'm sure Pep would have won more than 1 game in his first 9 though...I'm not here to start a Pep vs Lucho.

He will be better than Pep!

He said that you shouldn't compare me with Pep, but it's clear that he will try emulate Pep, nothing wrong with that, we will play the "Barca's way" again, the most important question is what plans does he have for parked buses or parked airplanes.

Luis Enrique: "Mascherano? A bit similar situation as Xavi. He has the profile of a captain. There's time to make decisions." #fcblive

Masche to be our captain next season :mascherano:

Luis Enrique: "I thank the club for believing in me. It's a very special day for me. Today we start to build a new Barça, an exciting Barça"

Luis Enrique: "I never thought about becoming first team coach at Barça. If you think about it, it won't happen."

Luis Enrique: "How do I define myself as a coach? Handsome, tall, likeable, Asturian... (smiles) More than a coach, one should be a leader."

Luis Enrique: "Being a coach is more than putting together a line-up. It's managing a group, players' personalities, motivating them..."

Luis Enrique: "Messi? I'm delighted to have world's best player in my squad. It's a motivation. He's still impressive, adds more than goals"

Luis Enrique: "How will Barça play? We will attack, play the attractive football that millions of people around the world liked to see..."

Luis Enrique: "Xavi? He's a friend and an ex-teammate. We'll sit down and talk about what he wants and what we want." #fcblive

Luis Enrique: "There will be changes this summer, we'll strengthen the team, if possible in all lines."

Luis Enrique: "Mascherano as Center back or Midfielder? Defensive Midfielder. He is in a bit similar situation as Xavi. He has the profile of a captain. There's time to make decisions."


Luis Enrique: "Playing 4-3-3 or other formations? We'll see, we want a system that is best for the players we have." #fcblive

Luis Enrique: "Rafinha and Deulofeu? No one has a guaranteed spot in the team, they will have to fight for it. They have to be ambitious."

Luis Enrique: "I would love to use players from the academy, i love to help young players, the door is open, but they will have to work very hard and show a lot of hunger. The future is in their hands"

Luis Enrique: "Neymar? He's one of the most important players in the team. I'm delighted to have him here." #fcblive

Luis Enrique: "Social media? I think it's something wonderful, I usually don't limit their use, except when the players are at the sporting facilities. We will have to discuss with the club what is acceptable and what is not."

Luis Enrique: "Defending more? If you want to defend, there's nothing better than having the ball. And if you have it on the opponent's half, even better. But we will still make some changes to surprise the opponent and try to make our style a bit more unpredictable"

Luis Enrique: "The general idea will stay the same, but we have to evolve, improve, so we can surprise the opponent more often." #fcblive

Luis Enrique : "I understand what is expected of me. If i cannot accomplish my objectives I will step aside and make way for the next manager."


Red ones are some interesting replies... :D

Luis Enrique refused to talk about the future of Cesc Fabregas & Xavi. Also said Barça will have no opened training sessions.

Atleast our line-up won't be leaked 2 days before the match from now on.
