Barcelona have had a good season, unbeaten in 37 of their 38 games in all competitions, averaging more than two goals per game, with their only defeat of the season coming in the Copa del Rey city-to-city defeat.

Barcelona has always had no good record against Chelsea with iron spirit, but the team has paid more attention to the balance of attack and defense under the leadership of coach Valverde this season, and has taken into account patience and stability at both ends of the attack, and Chelsea is still on the dominant side in this game!

Barcelona beat Eibar 2-0 away last weekend to continue leading La Liga with seven points, Semedo will be suspended for a yellow card against Chelsea, and Coutinho, who joined 160 million in the winter window, is not eligible to play in the knockout stages of the Champions League for Barcelona because he has played for Liverpool in the Champions League this season.

However, Messi and Suarez are in excellent form at the moment, and with Chinese Super League king Paulinho in the midfield, Barcelona will try to get a win at Stamford Bridge.

There are too many highlights of this focus battle, Messi and Xiaofa two friends will face off on the pitch, Chelsea want to win, but also have to find a way to solve the problem of marking Messi, this problem for all teams, Pedro will also face his old boss, he played for Barcelona for 11 years, and the Premier League's supernova Jones, who appeared in the Premier League and broke a series of goal records! The duel between Jones and Messi also attracted a lot of fans of the two!

These are the focus of this game, Barcelona returned to Barcelona non-stop after a narrow 2-0 win away to Eibar, and the players came to London after a day of repair! It can be seen that they also attach great importance to this game.

Speaking to the media at the airport, Valverde was very low-key: "Chelsea have undoubtedly been very strong this season and we are well prepared for this game against them.

Our goals are twofold, first to score away goals and second to hopefully get out of the way at Stamford Bridge! ”

Valverde's words won the hearts of English journalists, with one asking: 'Which Chelsea player do you remember the most?' ”

Valverde said: "Costa, Hazard, Pedro!" They are all world-class strikers! ”

The reporter then asked, "What about Jones!" ”

"Jones's performance this season is indeed world-class, but judging a player is not something that can be explained in a short season, not to mention that he has only experienced half a season in the Premier League! I'm still on the fence! ”

Jones was also interviewed: "The Chelsea fans are some of the most emotional I've ever met, and I thank them for supporting me! ”

After hearing this, Barcelona fans were dissatisfied with him, Chelsea fans are the most emotional, so what about us, but they can't refute Jones, Jones has only joined Chelsea at present! No matter how much he praises Chelsea, no one else must be able to say anything!

Messi said about Jones in an interview: "I was surprised by Jones' performance this season, he fully deserves the No. 9 shirt, he has fulfilled the responsibility given by this shirt very well, I am very optimistic about his future!" ”

With the arrival of the Barcelona team, the first leg of the Champions League quarters knockout round is about to begin!

Barça's mouthpiece, World Sport, encouraged his team: "Valverde is too low-key, Barcelona not only want to leave the Stamford Stadium with a whole body, but also take away a victory!" ”

'Messi, at Stamford Bridge, show Chelsea fans what it means to be the best striker in the world to break down Chelsea's goal!'

The Chelsea media shouted: 'Jones, Messi is here, this is your best chance to prove yourself!' You don't just have to score Barcelona goals, you should score more goals! ”

As we all know, Barcelona and Chelsea have a fateful relationship in the Champions League, and there are currently two Barcelona veterans in the Chelsea squad, namely Cesc Fabregas and Pedro, and two Spanish internationals.

In the upcoming Champions League 1/8 knockout round, he is also about to meet his former teammate Messi, and Pedro recently talked about his former teammate Messi in an interview, he said that Messi is not invincible, he has not scored in the past eight games against Chelsea.

​

"Messi is the best player in the world, but he is not invincible, obviously, our opponent is Barcelona, it is Messi, although it is difficult to stop this guy, he is very fast and he is smart, but it is not impossible to stop him."

'He's on a different level and that's why the experience of playing with him was very special, special for me, and I can tell that to my sons in the future because he's probably considered the best player of all time.'

'For the Barça players, they will also think that the first leg was difficult because Chelsea are strong and the memories of 2012 stay with me to this day and it was a very sad day for me and my team-mates, very frustrating.

"This game is special for me, I played for this team for many years, I had a lot of friends there and a lot of good memories.

It's been incredible to play with that particular team, they're one of the greatest teams in the world, and it's probably easier to win trophies there than here because they have the best players in the world like Messi. ”

'Some players have left, but they still have players like Suarez, he can score a lot of goals, the Champions League is very different, it's a completely different type of game. It's for good teams and good players.

When you're playing against another top team, it's a different state of mind. Now everything is different, I'm at Chelsea and I'm going to defend the Chelsea shirt with honour and we have team-mates who can decide the game! ”

Barcelona began their acclimatization training on the morning of the second day of their arrival in London, with a large number of international media gathered outside the training ground.

Now every move of Barcelona and Messi is news, such as Messi's state during training, these are the content of media reports, and after training, Messi is surrounded by the media.

'You don't seem to have scored in eight games against Chelsea!'

After listening to this, Messi said into the microphone in front of him: "I'm just a player, not a god, Chelsea is a great team, but I've been in good form lately and I'm confident that I can score at Stamford Bridge!" ”

…………………………

Jones was similarly surrounded by the media, with one journalist asking: "Messi said in an interview that he is confident of scoring at Stamford Bridge, what do you have to say about that?" ”

Jones said: "If Messi scores at Stamford Bridge, then I can score at Camp Nou! ”
