Saviola: “The next 20 days will be decisive”
The Argentinian striker believes that his team knows how to turn around the current situation and overturn the first leg deficits in both the Copa del Rey against Zaragoza and in the Champions League versus Liverpool.
Javier Saviola appeared before the press this Friday and spoke about the immediate future of Barça.
The Argentinian believes “the mindset has to be changed to believe we can change the
situation. The next 20 days will be decisive for the team. Saviola was hopeful about beating
Liverpool in the return leg: “we believe its vital to go through as playing in the Champions
is fantastic”.
Not an easy situation
The Barça striker is also conscious that “the situation is not easy, but we are looking
forward with confidence”, in reference to the return legs in both the Champions League and
the Copa del Rey.
Saviola added that “its a difficult moment for the whole team not just the strikers. We
are all equally to blame and we all have the same responsibility, everyone has to improve -
individually and as a group”. Saviola believes that “its very important to start the
comeback in the next game”, that will be on Sunday against Athletic Bilbao (21h00, C+)
