Zambrotta: “We’ve got our mentality back”
David Puig
Gianluca Zambrotta feels Barça had the right attitude against both Sevilla and Múrcia. The full back, back in the first team, feels the performances are going well.
Zambrotta was speaking after Sunday’s training session, and said he was especially impressed
with what the team had achieved in Saturday evening’s clash with Murcia. “The team did
a good job against Múrcia. We had the right attitude, we put on the right pressure and things
worked out well in attack. I was pleased with my performance personally, especially because my
cross led to the first goal although it was important for me that things went well from the
team”.
“110 per cent”
Zambrotta was also proud to see that some of the less regular players were able to shine.
“You give it 110 per cent whenever you get your chance. The players that haven’t played
much this season were very keen to play and gave it their all and that shows what a good squad we
have”.
Zambrotta is also pleased to see Henry doing so well on his
return to action. “We are happy because he is back to his best. He had a great game against
Murcia and it is important for him to be at the right level. But we didn’t only base our
attack around Henry, this team has great forwards like Bojan, Giovani, Messi and Ronaldinho, when
he’s back”.
Fitness good
Zambrotta also commented that “I think the team is fine in a fitness sense. It is
normal for us to find the going tough when we play games every three days but at this stage of the
competition the team is doing well”.
