Guardiola: “We will attack in the Champions League.” With Messi in the squad, easier done than said.

“It’s as if our style has become an excuse for us having lost the Cup final,” Guardiola told a news conference.

“Whether you win or lose, the style is always the same. Playing attacking football is the only way I understand. It’s our club’s philosophy, and I won’t change it.

“We are going to attack and to try and score goals at the Bernabeu.”

“We are up against a recent past where we had a lot of success. I would be happy if we only won La Liga, but what can I do if the fans are sad?”

“The players need to react because it is their job to,” he said.

“If they are angry or sad, they should run more. That way, they’ll get over it quicker. Those feeling sorry for themselves can go and sit in the stands.

“In sport, you lose more than you win. I’m not a psychologist; I’m a bloke who played football and who qualified as a coach. Nothing more.”
