Sergio Ramos has insisted that Real Madrid are not an inferior team to Primera Division champions Barcelona, and claims that los Blancos' target for the season is simple – to win everything.
The Spanish international conducted an interview with publication Marca, during which he discussed his aspirations for the year ahead, and how things have changed under the tutelage of Jose Mourinho, but began with his assessment of the current title incumbents.
Ramos said of Pep Guadiola’s champions, “Barcelona are not invincible. They have demonstrated in recent years that they have a great team, and right now they are one of the best, but we do not feel inferior to them or anyone.
“We are a team with aspirations to will titles in all competitions. Of course, we will fight against Barcelona, and those who are ahead of us.”
The former Sevilla defender also fielded questions comparing the arrival of Mourinho to the atmosphere at the club under previous coach Manuel Pellegrini, and added that the squad are delighted to have the Special One in the dugout.
He exclaimed, “We are privileged to have a coach like him, because he is very hard working, always seeking perfection, and brings the best performance from all of the players. He loves to work, and asks you to train like you play.
He has a great track record, and has won titles at every club where he has been, because of the treatment provided to his players and the harmony he has had with them.
