Jonathan honoured with Barcelona chance

Barcelona Atletic players Jonathan and Fontàs took part in yesterday's friendly game against Los Angeles Galaxy and shared their thoughts with the club's official media.

Jonathan Dos Santos
"It's an honour to play alongside these great players. The team did very well, we're getting into the rhythm and we're glad to have made the fans happy. I'm starting to get to know the guys and trying to catch up little by little.

I didn't expect to be called-up by Guardiola for this tour but it's a unique opportunity and I need to grab the chance. My brother congratulated me with my debut and he advised me stay calm. The Mexican national team? It will come, for now I'm working and making progress step by step."


Andreu Fontàs
"I've never saw that much people in my life, but you forget about your nerves when you start playing. The team-mates are incredible and everything seems easier when you play with them."

Dont worry Jonathan you will be called up and be in our squad for the world cup. We lack a midfielder like you, torrado with his age...

His brother told him to be calm...giovani??? Good advice but giovani didnt stay calm:).

You know Muniesa is special, when a 17 year old in central defence makes you feel calm. I feel totally calm with Muniesa in defence, abit like I feel totally calm when Iniesta or Xavi has the ball (or almost as calm as that!).

I think Thiago is better than Dos Santos! They play the same position but Thiago is one year younger!

game was amazing to watch live! messi was incredible and u can still tell the difference of the type of chances we get with him on the field and off the field, totally different to be honest... xavi was spectacular, totally controlled the center of midfield and was an orchestra of the team out there, every possession went through him..
gudjonsen needs to find the exit door for the good of barca and himself as a professional, hes just making himself less available on the market with his poor performances such as yesterdays...
youth players were promising and jeffren wasnt as bad as people are commenting he was actually pretty good and made alot of runs but rarely got the ball, instead xavi looked to pass to henry on the left flank.. dos santos is my favorite!
93,137 showed up to the game! most in the U.S. since 94 world cup... amazing environment!!
