Johan Cruyff : Barcelona Now Is Undoubtable !
Johan Cruyff believes that Barcelona answered the few remaining doubters left who said that they had not met one of the big teams in the league before going to Sevilla on Saturday.
The three-goal victory in Sánchez Pizjuán was proof that Pep Guardiola's team are capable of defeating the best and can now set their sights on winning a trophy this term, the Dutch legend said.
In his weekly column for El Periódico, Cruyff said that winning things are not done by picking and choosing victories because every team needs to be beaten.
"League titles are not one by only doing the double over the big teams. The championships come when you beat everyone and there are as many smaller opponents as their are big ones," he wrote.
"With one stroke they have ended that rubbish about Barça having played nobody big until now. This is a week that the squad should enjoy because the win in Sevilla will be important for confidence and to the atmosphere.
"You saw winners in Sevilla and you have seen the champions of of everything; the league, the Copa del Rey and the Champions League. Everything has been going very well, but we shall now see what happens.
"You have to walk and not run in the league and now there are two big home games coming up, against Valencia and Real Madrid, and that could give Barça the advantage."
