Pep: Ibra helped Barcelona win the Liga title

Pep Guardiola has stated that Zlatan Ibrahimovic played an important part during his one-year spell at Camp Nou.

Ibrahimovic was a very important player for us. He helped us a lot and his first six months were excellent. Part of that Liga title we won is his," said Guardiola.


The Barca coach then went on to stress that Milan will prove to be a tough opponent in Wednesday's European clash.

"San Siro is one of the greatest stadiums in the world. When this stadium shouts, it really shouts. To come here and play is always an honour.

"I'm sure we'll see a great game of football tomorrow. We'll have to be prepared for the difficult moments we'll go through.

"How will we play tomorrow? With seven defenders, hanging on the crossbar ... No, I think our style is well known."


Guardiola refused to look too far ahead as he stressed that an eventual treble is still far away, and a lot can happen in the upcoming weeks.

"Treble still possible? I don't look further than the next game. If we lose tomorrow and on Saturday, that's two trophies gone.

"We'll have to prove our worth again. The objective is to stay motivated after all we've won, to compete until the end."
