Jose Mourinho talked about tomorrow's match against Rayo Vallecano in today's press conference.

"We do not want to stray from our philosophy and must adapt todifferent circumstances. It's difficult to foresee what will happen in agame. I saw Rayo play at their stadium during the preseason many monthsago. I've always seen goalkeepers experience difficulties when gamesare held around 16:00, but these things happen in football. The pitch issmall within the allowed measurements and the grass is in bad shape,but it's isn't horrible. My team is my first concern, followed by theopponent and then everything else. We will fight to the end in everymatch to win the league and I believe we could see a great gametomorrow."

"I expect to face a difficult opponent in a complicated game. I can'tpredict how Rayo will play. I believe they have an offensive style, butthey play slightly differently at home than on the road. They are betterin away matches, playing a more elaborate and better constructed game.They are more straightforward at home maybe due to the state their pitchis in. They fear no one and always play to win. I'm sympathyetictowards Rayo since last season because they got promoted despite thehardships they went through. I'm happy for them and for coach Sandoval.Rather than expecting them to play a tight or open game I expect thegame to be complicated."

"We're not looking to break any records. Our objective is towin the championship. We're not obsessed about records. What matters tous is winning our games and scoring one goal more than our opponents.We've managed to do so thus far impressively. There are no perfect teamsbecause that would imply making no mistakes. We've conceded some goalslately, but we won in Getafe with a clean sheet. Scoring more strikesdecreases our chances of losing or drawing a match, but we have todefend well. We generally do defend well, but we sometimes make mistakesdue to lack of concentration."

"I hope Rayo's supporters have fun tomorrow. They spent severalyears away from the First Division and therefore hadn't faced RealMadrid at home lately. I want them to enjoy thmselves and the time thegame will begin suits them because they are used to it. It also seemsthe weather will be good. I just don't wish them to enjoy the finalscore. We don't expect their support, but that's part of football and Ithink everything that has to do with them supporting their team isphenomenal."

"Benzema will miss a couple of weeks for sure, while Di Mariamay be more suceptible to injury because he is an explosive, fast andintense player who always plays and trains at a fast pace. It's easierfor him to get injured than for a diesel sort of player."

"Coentrao faced CSKA and Marcelo played against Racing. Every match isimportant to me and I believed the one against Racing was more so thanthe one in Russia."

"I would like my men to be happy both here and on their national teams.I'd like them all to be called-up. Albiol never asked me to let himleave and we've never talked about anything of the sort. My DirectorGeneral asked me if I wanted anyone to leave and I told him I didn't."

"Joselu will make the cut for tomorrow's match. He isCastilla's centre forward and the one who plays in that position. Morataeither doesn't play or is positioned down the left wing. Whenever thereserve team uses a centre forward Joselu takes the spot."

"I would like Guardiola to decide what he believes is best for him.Regarding extending his contract with Barça or not, it's his decisionand it will be the one that makes him happiest."
