The director went on to claim that the style is indisputable and based on "pressuring, stealing the ball and speculating".

"It is difficult to win if you don't pass the one test; personality...We play as we do because we are the catalan clubs, and playing like this we have been the best," he said.

Beyond the fantastic results and titles, Txiki Begiristain claimed that there is another "great victory" for Barca.

"The club has assured that in the next twenty years there will not be any discussions about how we play again," he explained.

"There is a tendency to live in short cycles and the only way of extending them is through changes, not revolution. We must be competent in the important positions. We must have pressure on the key positions."
