Alves : Barca Can be Even Better in 2011

Dani Alves believes Barca can be even better in 2011. The defending champions stop the La Liga table by two pts going into Spanish Winter, break and have proven almost unstoppable as they go in search of a third consecutive la liga title.

After Barca won 5-1 with Espanyol, in the Catalan derby on Saturday, brazil fullback Alves insist the best is yet to come.

“This team has no ceiling to
its improvement,” Alves said.
“We’ve been showing on the
pitch how we’ve got better.
We found it hard to finish
games off at the start of the
season. Now we are on a
great run, though we have to
keep our feet on the ground.”
“There’s no harm in dreaming
and with this team anything
is possible. We are on the
right track to being able to
compete and nothing is
going to distract us. With
Barca, nothing is impossible.”
“We have to keep up our
habits of hard work and
humility. Now we have a
break coming up and we can
fill up our tanks to get
through the next six months.”
“It’s down to all of us, both
when we attack and we
defend. We are all prepared
to make a special effort. The
squad is an example of how
to work together. This is a
collective game and we all
need each other.”

before Christmas break, Barca welcome Athletic Bilbao to the Camp Nou for the first leg of their round of 16 match in the Copa Del Rey.
“He’s an important and vital
player for them, but Bilbao
are much more than just
him,” Alves said.
