Dream scenario for a coach. Up by 6 points and you still don't have two big players on your team.
This team has come along way since the 4-1 Thrashing by Celta.

Team has improved so much and Lucho and Unzué Helped turn this ship around and put it back on track.
Got to give the players credit too they got their heads back on straight While messi has been Absent and here we are in the Lead with Six points ahead of Real!
I think our defense is still quite shaky though. If it weren't for Bravo today, the scoreline wouldn't have been the same.
That's what I like about Lucho the most. He has remained faithful to Barca's philosophy but has added just the right amount of directness into tiki-taka. I think he is quite a versatile coach, less of an idealist than Pep, which is a good thing. As a former Barca captain he also knows how to mentally lead the team.Luis is a genious. Turned Barca into a more attacking oriented team, but still encourages the Barca philosophy a lot.
Beautiful total-play yesterday, a lot of tiki-taka.
But was stood out most to me was that everything was built from the ground. Bravo never made a long-ball, and defenders always tried to pass the ball low.
As if Luis was paying tributo to Guardiola.
It's more like 7 points in reality, since we own the h2h vs Madrid.
