Luis Enrique insists his time at Roma ‘made me a better Coach’ as he prepares to face them with Barcelona.
The Catalan side will welcome the Giallorossi to Camp Nou for the Trofeo Gamper tomorrow, and the Blaugrana Coach spoke about his time in Serie A during his pre-match Press conference.
“What happened at Roma made me a better Coach,” Enrique explained.
“It was my fourth year as a Coach, after three with the youth team [at Barcelona], it was very intense and rewarding, a unique experience.

“What happened at Roma made me a better Coach,” Enrique explained.
“It was my fourth year as a Coach, after three with the youth team [at Barcelona], it was very intense and rewarding, a unique experience.
“I’ll always be grateful for the opportunity they gave me, I arrived with different ideas about how to play football, and found players ready to accept that change and a crowd which was behind us.
“I have great memories, I’d have liked to have finished higher [than seventh], but it was a very positive year.”
The Spanish tactician also threw his backing behind the Lupi to overhaul Juventus and win the Scudetto for the first time since 2001.
“[Coach Rudi] Garcia is in his third year in Serie A, and I think there are conditions in place to win the Scudetto.
“Juve have done well on the transfer market, while Milan, Inter and Lazio could also be in the fight for top spot, but I’d like it if Roma won.”
