Barcelona's Brazilian defender Dani Alves has said that, despite losing the last league title at the hands of Real Madrid, Barca team is still "the team to beat" for the rest of rivals. "Never mind that the last year we have lost championships. Continue to be the best team in the world until we remove that shield" stressed before training this afternoon. Alves, however, has urged his colleagues to "regain the league title," which, according to him, last season did not escape by unfair refereeing decisions, but own demerits: "We did not do enough to get it." For the Brazilian international would be important, in any case, to achieve this August Spain Super Cup against Real Madrid. "When you start to doubt, do not get the balance quickly to try to be a competitive team. We have to start well and send a little message to all opponents that we're going to go for it," he argued. Dani Alves has joked about wanting the whole Real Madrid coach,Jose Mourinho , being dubbed "the one", for winning the leagues of Spain, Italy and England. "If he is alone, Pep (Guardiola), is the 'antiúnico' "said with a laugh. Alves says he is used to generate some antipathy in social networks and some media Madrid whenever he claimed vehemently defended his club and his companions, at the junction of statements that usually crosses the airlift. "I think it's because I go to play there and in the end I did not go play for the best club in the world. Since then, I see it differently," he noted. At 29, Dani Alves claims to be "in a moment of personal maturity and football" and gives "thanks to God" for having a physique, which expects that allows "endure many years of football." This season begins a new stage in the club, where Pep Guardiola has given the reins to his deputy, Tito Vilanova . Not long ago Alves said if Guardiola was leaving, the club would sink. "It was a bit of a strategy for him to stay, but apparently did not do much," he ironized the Barca side, and more seriously who recalled that Guardiola has left, but has left them "in good hands and that is most important.
