No need to compare Setien to Valverde – Busquets



Sergio Busquets refused to be drawn on comparisons between former coach Ernesto Valverde and his replacement Quique Setien after Barcelona's 1-0 victory over Granada.

The Spanish Super Cup semi-final defeat to Atletico Madrid 10 days ago prompted Barca to sack Valverde and replace him with ex-Real Betis coach Setien.

The 61-year-old kicked off his reign at the Nou Camp with three points, his new side finally breaking their opponents down courtesy of Lionel Messi's 12th goal in as many games against Granada.

"Every manager has his own style and manner of seeing football. You'll see what Setien asked us to do."We won't be revealing what it was.

We are happy with what Ernesto did and we are happy to have Setien now.

Barca dominated the game throughout without creating many clear-cut chances until Messi's cool finish capped off a fine team move.

"It left some good feelings. We played solidly," Busquets said.

"He has a lot of things to mature but you can see that he belongs here," Busquets added.
