BARCELONA - Barcelona coach Quique Setien says his side still have what it takes to win this season's Champions League despite their dismal end to the La Liga campaign.
Barca play their final league La Liga game of the season at Alaves on Sunday before hosting Napoli on Aug 8 in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie. "He is right that if we play as badly as we have done in some games we won't win anything but we have had great moments," Setien told a news conference on Saturday.
He also dismissed suggestions Messi was taking aim at the coach when he criticised the team's run of form since January, the month the 61-year-old took charge after Ernesto Valverde was sacked.
