SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Barcelona coach Luis Enrique
"As usual what counts is the team as a whole. Leaving Lionel Messi out is something that would affect any team. I will decide based on my own judgements how many minutes Messi has on the pitch. If I was certain that playing every single minute would result in him staying in top physical shape then I would do that. But I understand that it is difficult to be able to play every minute during the course of a season. So I will decide on how many minutes he plays against Levante by thinking of Barcelona as a whole."

"Compliments are weakening. I also had praise as a player. Every elite footballer experiences that. What counts is the present and the reality. We're not excessively good when we win as we are doing now. Neither will we be too bad when we lose. We will still be the same with lots of details and aspects to improve. But neither especially good or especially bad."
