Barca boss SB confirms season will resume in September

Barcelona manager SB called a press conference today only hours after Spain's heavy defeat in the Confederations Cup. Although he confirmed he had not actually watched the game live, he did say he taped it and we assume he would watch it later.

On the back of speculation that the current La Liga, Champions League and Copa Del Rey season may be rushed due to International duty, SB confirmed he was committed to fighting it out well and truly into September if necessary.

"If this season must stick it out to September then it should, I wouldn't want my treble chances (or anyone else's) thrown in the bin on a rushed season - when it looks like its going to be an epic season and so far has been exceptional."

From the Real Madrid camp, manager JM was asked for comments on the same matter and he indicated he did agree with his collegue's opionons.

SB also spoke today about what it takes to win a Treble, after having successfully managed the superhuman feat several seasons ago with Barcelona.

"You need hard work, motivation and team harmony." SB then continued.
"As a treble winner myself I believe JM (Real Madrid Manager) has potential, but I think hard work will let him down - lack of."


When told of the remarks from SB, JM refused to be drawn into the discussion, only saying he respects his opposite manager and would rather talk once this season is complete. However he looked visibly agitated after the interview.
