“If last year was already a good year after winning la Copa [del Rey] and LaLiga, it’s also true that we were left with a thorn in our flesh when it comes to the Champions League and the manner in which we were eliminated.
“So ahead of this season we promise that we’ll do everything possible to make sure that this beautiful and desired cup will return once again to the Camp Nou.”
With these words FC Barcelona’s newly named captain, Leo Messi, promised to all Barcelona fans that the team would put all their energy into winning the most prestigious UEFA tournament.
