Words are useless now, we just need facts. The debut is against a strong opponent, but all this doesn't scare me. Barça is a top team, but we are not afraid and we are setting out to win the match. This is my mentality.
He trained with the team and at full speed. I will evaluate him carefully in his finishing, but he starts again from today and we reset everything. The team has made itself available.
President De Laurentiis asked me to believe strongly in our objectives which are to advance in the Champions League and finish in the top four places in the championship. I'm excited.

Hansi Flick
Manager on Barcelona…ABOUT MATCH
For us it means excitement, hope and motivation to advance to the Quarterfinals. I think it is the biggest competition at club level. It is the ideal and perfect setting to demonstrate what we know. Napoli have changed their coach in a surprising way, but he is a coach who knows the house. For us it is not easy because we will not know how the game will turn out with the change of coach. We are in front of the Scudetto champion. Highlight its forward position.
…MATCH PLAN
We have to be a little more cautious, prepare the game in the best way possible knowing that there are 90 more minutes left in Montjuïc. But we will continue with our identity. It will be complicated.
…WIN
It depends on what the match is like. We will go to win, as always. We go out to win, we are Barça. A draw against Barça is not a good result. We will go out like this, then depending on the circumstances we will see if it is a good result or not. But we have to keep in mind that we have a home game and that they will have to visit Montjuïc.
