Deportivo La Coruna winger Andres Guardado has admitted his side have endured a poor second half of the season, but insisted they are ready to turn things around tomorrow night at Camp Nou against Barcelona.
“We are a long way from being the team we were in the first half of the season, but we’re coming to Barcelona to turn that around,” the Mexican international told Barca TV.
“We aren’t doing well and it’s got to all of us but on Wednesday we will be looking to break the bad run of results we’ve had, put in a performance to make things tough for Barca and maybe take a point home. It’ll be difficult, but not impossible.”
Finally, Guardado revealed it was no coincidence that the Herculinos’ dip in form coincided with the loss of Brazilian star Felipe to long term injury.
“He has been and still is an important absentee for us. He gave us an outlet on the left and losing him is the main reason why we have lost the solidity we had in the first half of the campaign.”
