Virtually certain that Pep will have talked this over with Soriano and Khaldoon prior to the conference, and that they will have worked out a position. Pep knows the questions that are coming, and they will not be about the upcoming match. At least, not the maliciously intentioned ones. This case is still under judicial review, and in these circumstances, I hope — and expect — that Pep will just bluntly refuse to answer any such questions. That would be the dignified stance and, furthermore, the ethical stance. Journos want a juicy story. That's their job. Pep is under no obligation to give them any such story.
The match? After United and Spurs, just to mention the most recent debacles, I'm flummoxed, I really am. Don't know what to think any more. We've been playing so strangely all season. We'd be capable of totally controlling possession, wearing out the woodwork, squaring the ball two or three times when there's a goalmouth gaping in front, having a penalty saved, and drawing the match.
