Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde admits they weren’t at their best for victory at Leganes.
Valverde knows better than anyone that Barcelona‘s performances so far this season haven’t been up to scratch.
But the Catalans’ coach has emphasised the importance of winning games even when they’re not playing well.
“The positive is that we won from a losing position,” he said after their 2-1 win at Leganes.
“I recognise that we haven’t been brilliant, but these games have to be won.”
Barcelona played at Butarque in tricky conditions, and Valverde doesn’t think his side were helped by the weather.
“It was complicated,” he said.
“Made difficult by the conditions of the pitch and the day.
“It was windy, the pitch wasn’t good and they put it to us.”
