According to the local press Frank Rijkaard seems to have decided the team to face Espanyol this Saturday. In yesterday’s training session Thiago Motta played in the cental midfield role with Andres Iniesta on the right side of the attack and Leo Messi on the left. Depending still on the unlikely possibility of Ronaldinho having his one-match ban suspended the team to face Espanyol will be:
…………………Valdes…………………….
..Zambrotta…Thuram…Puyol……..Gio
……………………Motta……………………
………Xavi…………………. Deco………..
..Iniesta………. Eto’o …………..Messi..I have to say I’m not happy about Motta who has not played well in the two Catalunya Cup games this week.
