He was also thrilled with Ivan Rakitic
Ernesto Valverde praised Barcelona’s defence and attack after watching his team thrash Huesca 8-2 at the Camp Nou on Sunday.
Huesca took a shock lead inside three minutes through Juan Camilo Hernandez. Barcelona hit back to move 3-1 up before Alex Gallar scored again for the Liga newcomers.
The second half was a different story as Barca romped to victory, and I got Valverde’s thoughts at his post-match press conference.
“I’m happy not only with Barça’s offensive but also defensive effort. Huesca only had two chances which they managed to convert.”
“Rakitic deserves all the credit he’s getting. He been playing at a high level for a long time.
“VAR - takes some getting used to. There’s initial uncertainty that’s why I ask the referee what’s going on. But it works. Doesn’t loss much time and it’s today it was good
“Dembele has been playing great but everyone will get a chance to play. We have many matches. There’s No 11 de gala (11 untouchables).
“Pique is not effected by what happened over the weekend. We spoke and It’s all fine.”
The win puts Barcelona on top of the early La Liga table after three games on goal difference. Domestic football now pauses due to the international break, and Barcelona return on September 15 when they take on Real Sociedad.
