“We’re playing one of the best teams in the world”

Right after the team arrived in London, coach Pep Guardiola and Andrés Iniesta met with the press for a pre-game conference. Andres, who is set to play at the Emirates Stadium for the first time in his career on Wednesday, recalled, “I didn’t play last year, I was injured, but they were excellent matches because there were a lot of goals, there were good moments and times when they put us under pressure, particularly in the first leg. We are going to try and play well because Arsenal are one of the best teams in the world. If we want to win we need to play excellently and let’s hope that’s the case.”
“It should be a very attractive game and we hope to put in a good performance,” the 26-year-old midfielder said about the upcoming game. “They are a team you have to take notice of and we will have to be very focussed and above all take our chances and at all times try and play our own style of football.”
The World Cup winner was also asked about some tactics against Arsenal. “Regardless of what they do, we have to play our own football, stay concentrated the whole game and every one of us has to make sure we do what we are supposed to do, not make mistakes and create chances,” explained the blaugrana playmaker. “We have to do our job just as well in attack as in defence, because we are up against a very serious and dangerous outfit.”
Guardiola admitted the Gunners were not his ideal opponents for the last 16: “I like watching Arsenal, but I’d rather not be playing against them. We are two teams who want the ball and we both suffer without it. We want possession for as long as possible in order to make as many attacking situations as we can.”
The Mister insisted: “We have to be egotistical and want the ball. If Arsenal dominate, they will flood you with goal chances,” whilst making it clear that whatever happens, “you will see the Barça team, that we have prepared before the game starts.”
Asked why Barca gave up the chance to train in London this evening, as is usual in Champions League games, the Coach explained his decision to have a session in Barcelona this morning instead because of the number of players he’s got who’ve been playing a lot of games of late: “I just wanted to train in Barcelona and not here”.
Coming back to London, city of the “miracle at Stamford Bridge” (Andres scored the late goal in the 2009 semi-final second leg which secured Barcelona a place in the Rome showpiece at the expense of Chelsea FC), Iniesta said, “I have good memories of when we played Chelsea and that goal is one I will always relish, that’s in the past now, though, and we have an important match tomorrow. That was Chelsea and tomorrow is another match.”
