In the eve of their Copa del Rey matchup against Atletico Madrid, Barça's coach Luis Enrique stated he doesn't feel his hob would be at stake if they can't win their series against Diego Simeone's crew. Nevertheless, the former Celta Vigo boss assured his opponents will be a tough team to crack if they want to make it through to the semifinals.
"I don't have the feeling that my neck is on the line in the Cup game against Atlético. It will be tough for us; they're a team to be afraid of in two matches. I don't know how Atlético are going to play it. I expect they will remain faithful to their style of playing the game. They are powerful in all areas. We must be intense and aggressive," Luis Enrique told the press.
Regarding his future with the team, Luis Enrique avoided any controversy and maintained his focus on the two leg series against Atletico.
"In the business of football, we have learned that living the present is risky enough to be worried about what will happen in the next few months. Right now I'm optimistic because I watch my team training hard everyday in what has been a very special season," the coach added.
