Dec 3, 2009 9:53:35 PM
Barcelona defender Gerard Pique has declared that his team have the same motivation as last season and will look to repeat the success that saw them collect five trophies in 2009.
The Blaugrana currently sit atop the Primera Liga with a five point cushion and can secure their place in the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League with a win over Dynamo Kiev next week to keep their title defences very much on track.
"The team is going for all titles, game by game we try to show this," he told El Mundo Deportivo.
The central defender also declared that he would also be happy to see the expectation that is on his side this year continue for many years to come.
"I would love it if every year this same level of expectation continued as it would mean that the previous year we won titles," he noted.
Barcelona will look to maintain their five point lead this weekend with a win over Deportivo La Coruna at the Riazor.
