What party are expected? Looks to London with Chelsea or another?
I guess other than that because the style of Manchester is not Chelsea. I see them waiting at the counter. But not as much as Hiddink's team made in their field. And I hope to suffer less, eh!

Command azulgrana therefore.
Yes, the ball will take us longer. Is what we do and we will. They will try to steal it and leave it at speed because it is the best move: Cristiano and Rooney are very dangerous spaces. Also my friend Carlitos Tevez. They have fireworks and will turn up. We will have to be very careful. The final touch with our measured speed.

Do you play in band or in the middle as he did at the Bernabeu without going any further?
¡Hmmm! Where the coach tells me, ha, ha! We will not explain everything.

But surprises can be at this point?
Not much, really. It is when a player, the spark. We know too well to await developments.

Do we agree that it is the best that can be seen in Europe?
Probably. They are a winning machine. Revalidate the Premier, the defending Champions. My team played some of the best footballers in the world and in the United ... too.

It goes on insisting that the focus is on you and Cristiano Ronaldo. How do people live such a compromise?
The event is unique, it's motivation, anxiety ... It is clear that the game is special, but not for him and for myself but for everyone. It is said that the finals are to win, not who is going to decide. Send the team, in our case starting Valdés.

That was the key against Arsenal in the final in Paris.
In effect. Victor was fantastic compared to Arsenal ... goal and the victory marked him Belletti. That confirms what he said: When the team is not the individuals.

Today we know if Henry and Iniesta are expected throughout the club as a point.
Yes so much that we can and because we already have too many low: Alves, Márquez, Abidal ...

Iniesta no other party would, of course.
Yes, because Andrew is unique.
