""It's something I can't change. We have to find solutions. We have to find players who can start, who can play 90 minutes. "Lamine and Fermin are back, but we have to manage them. I know that at our best, we can beat anyone. "The most important thing for me is to fight from the start and play our best football.""
""Robert told me that after the first half, he played with a bandage and said everything was fine. These things aren't easy for players. Obviously, these situations hurt us. "For example, in Raphinha's case, I know why he is like this. Travelling ends up taking its toll. "Raphinha is one of the most important players we have. We miss him, but it won't be long before we see him again.""
Lamine Yamal and Fermin Lopez have returned to training but are not expected to play the full 90 minutes. Key players Dani Olmo, Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres remain unavailable, forcing careful rotation and lineup adjustments. The squad has limited options and La Masia youth players may receive opportunities. Robert Lewandowski recently played international duty while managing discomfort, reportedly using a bandage and maintaining professional care of his body. Raphinha has suffered travel-related fatigue and is expected to return soon. The coaching focus is on fighting from the start and producing the team's best football.
