Pep: "We will be ambitious, I do not think the return"

What should change in the routine of traveling on game day?
I prefer longer hours we are together, traveling today to rest well and get better at night tomorrow. It is a final against the strongest rival.
We compared a lot of the preseason in Madrid and Barcelona. How do you see?
Real Madrid have made perfect preseason in terms of results. As for the game, so I've seen are so good with the tone of last year. They won the Cup, reached the Champions League semifinals, was second in the league. We'll see tomorrow how we are, but you know the opinion I have of these players. Compete well and see if we can take the title.
Is it too tough start to the season, playing one title against arch-rivals?
No. It's a lucky play the Super Cup, for that you must have been a champion of something last season. It is the third season of play. It is very lucky, your opponent is huge. Since I am a player and then coach Real Madrid is always strong, powerful, very good in every way. We have seen the possible changes that may be with new players, we tried to learn as much as possible rival in recent days.
Do you think the results last season when he urges Madrid win Super Cup over?
I do not think any less important to us than to them. A final is a final and it is always important. No excuses, if Madrid wins will have been better, if not we will have been us. There is little cheating in sport in general.
How to plant the first leg?
I have the impression that if we lose 3-1 we will not be able to overcome a team like Madrid. Much of what we played title on Sunday. Try to raise the trip thinking that there is a return, but the times we had success is because we have been Bernabeu ambitious. We can win or lose, but I do not think the game back. Try to make a good game to have options in the back, obviously.
Given that there are three days between the departure and return. Is it more important aspect of mind? How are the players in this regard?
They're fine. It's hard to get what they think the players, but not because of three days between the two parties no longer an end. No excuses. If I wanted to be better physically return would have done before, but I prioritized the rest and prefer that they were at home rather than training because many have been with their teams. Playing against Madrid will help us to get competitive pitch, because either you approach them or do not have options.
Do you expect a game like the last of last season?
It's hard to say. It was hard to tell last year. In the Champions League semis we waited at midfield. In the back we came for. It is difficult to know how to play Madrid. It is a team that can play many forms, dominates all the records, I did and will do so again.
The signing of Cesc seems to be already done. Will Barca midfield his best ever with this signing?
It is not yet here. According to information I have, not 'twitter' but the club is advanced but it is a document to be confirmed. When they do give you my opinion. In any case come or not the club is still a very good midfield.
Everything indicates that there is no option that Cesc does not come ...
Not here yet. Is advanced and the prospects are good, but Arsenal still. Are some documents as I have explained. If not confirmed, but is still at Arsenal.
It seems that the comments yesterday on Twitter upset Arsenal. Is that why you have not already accepted?
Have you talked to Gazidids or Wenger? I do not know if they bothered, the social networking hits. It is already difficult issue of control, but the reality is that when I ask the club tells me how this situation. I will not tweets of Pique and Puyol. I trust what I say Zubizarreta and Bartholomew, and I say that is not yet.
Does your staff have any more shots?
No, no.
How is Puyol? Ayer wrote that he saw the light at the end of the tunnel, although it is unclear whether Cesc was on ...
We need you soon. Yes, doing well, doing everything without pain. We knew he was injured and could throw that speed back, but doing exercises in the field. I think in the short term will be with us.
