I'm very happy. We knew how important these three points were, especially as this match came after the international break. It's difficult to manage because we had a lot of players involved, most of them had travelled and played matches. It was the moment to win these three points.
They are paying the consequences of the lack of leaders, players with good technique and confidence in the youngsters. In Italy, Lamine Yamal and Musiala would probably play in Serie B to gain experience. And that can't be.
I'm happy with Marcus, he plays well. The last few weeks he's had problems, he's been injured, so it's an opportunity for him. There are other options, Fermín, Gavi. I'm happy that Gavi is at a great level.
I never had this feeling - I'm not involved in all this social media thing. I think that's a good thing. Every supporter of Barcelona can see it's great to have him in the team. For me it's fantastic to see, because he enjoys training, he enjoys playing with these guys. And he has huge quality.
"Playing for Benfica, just like at Barça, is out of love. I have one year left on my contract; if I have to play in Saudi Arabia, I'll play; if I have to play in Europe, I'll play. It will depend on Al Hilal. When Barcelona calls, you can't refuse. I feel at home here; I've adapted very well."
"It's really frustrating when one of your best players gets injured in a friendly," he told Mon Esport. "You can't shift the blame onto the player because he's a professional, and he plays for his country and is obligated to give his all."
I've already achieved more than I ever expected, but playing for Benfica is like playing basketball - it's all about the love of the game. I'm prepared to take a pay cut.
He's already one of the best in the world, at that age. He's a different kind of player, one we all enjoy every time he plays. I think Barcelona really misses him when Pedri isn't there.
Benfica are willing to negotiate a transfer in the region of €20 million, significantly lower than the player's release clause of €100 million, making the operation attractive for Barcelona.
"He's already one of the best in the world at that age. He's a unique player, one we all enjoy watching every time he plays. I think Barcelona really notices it when Pedri isn't there."
Xavi Espart has a lot of confidence. It's incredible that at 18 years old he's already played two Champions League matches and his level in La Liga... He needs the right attitude and mentality. For tomorrow, he's a good option for us.
