Álex Gallar: Huesca star on playing Barcelona and shutting mouths
Gallar will ask Messi for his shirt but only after the game ends
Two games, four points. Is the dressing room surprised with this start?
I won't lie to you, the dressing room is suprrised, but this is only just starting. With patience and humility we can pick up points everywhere. We are conscious hard moments will come and we have to be prepared.
What are Huesca's chances at Camp Nou?
We're realistic. We have to do everything well and hope they don't have their best day. They have enormous power but we're not closing any doors to victory or taking a point.
You can't say tomorrow is not different... all your family and friends will be there...
It's not so different. I've been to the Camp Nou a lot, but also (to see Barca at) Montjuic. And my family and friends have come to see me in other stadiums. Yes it will be special but above all to measure ourselves against one of the best teams in the world.
I know Messi is one of your idols... what will you think when you shake hands on the same pitch?
When the game ends I have the intention of asking for his shirt but before and during the game I will only be thinking about performing to the max. It won't be more special because it's him.
Would you sign up for survival in the 93rd minute of the final week?
Maybe seeing how things have started I would not sign up for that, but with the huge teams outthere I suppose that I should. I'm confident we can survive before then, we've started quite well and are hopeful of adding more points.
You're favourites to go down, does that annoy you?
We don't care what people say although we are aware of it. We will keep working to shut mouths.
What's changed with Leo Franco?
They are different styles, not better or worse. Maybe he's more on top of training, he doesn't let you lose concentration at all. He motivates you in a more emotional way.
