The Brazilian has expressed that La Roja are privileged to have players from the Catalonian giants at their disposal.
Former Barcelona defender, Juliano Belletti, is of the opinion that the Spanish national side would not be able to reach its current level of success if it wasn’t for Barcelona players.
Belletti stressed that the World champions have got the Nou Camp outfit to thank for their continuous stay at the top of the footballing world.
La Furia Roja recently became the first side in the history of the beautiful sport to win three consecutive major international tournaments, after they emerged triumphant from the Euro 2012.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 are also the first team to win two European Championships in a row. In the long and prestigious history of the tournament, no other side has ever managed to successfully defend its European title.
Not only did http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-c36001 del Bosque’s men win the coveted competition, they were able to do it in spectacular fashion as they conceded only one goal throughout the whole tournament.
Considering the dizzying heights reached by the Iberians, retired veteran, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Juliano-Belletti-c19932, has stressed that it is due to the Catalan players that the Reds are having such supremacy at the international stage.
Del Bosque’s side had a total of 7 http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 players on their roster in this year’s European Championship. All of these players had crucial roles to play on the pitch and were massively instrumental in the success achieved by the Red Fury.
While talking to reporters, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 player was quoted as saying:
“If not for the Barca players, the Spanish team would not be what it is today. If they win the 2014 World Cup they will surely be the best team of all time. It's nice having someone who knows the project from inside out leading the team.”
"Although it will be difficult to maintain this sequence of titles and there will be comparisons [between the two coaches], we must remember that the bedrock of the team are the players.”
Spain are now expected to defend their World title in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Brazil-c2858 after two years.
