^ I think that Pep could show a little bit of more confidence. I understand that he always tries to be polite and never wants to put the spot light on his team but he needs to exert more confidence into the team. It is always "No, the liga is far from over, we could always lose! Or No, "X game" is not going to be easy, we might lose "x game" (always implying that they may lose). I do not want Pep to say that they're going to win every game but just look at Mourinho, whenever asked about a game he always responds along the lines of "We are going to win no matter what" and it may come off as cocky but that confidence helps Madrid. If the players see that the coach's confidence is sky high then their attitude towards a game tends to pick up.
