Leganes boss Pellegrino wants his side to be brave and take the attack to Barcelona.

The struggling La Liga side host the reigning champions on Wednesday night.

“Barcelona is a great team, we will have to control the most sensitive areas where they generate the most football,” he told the club’s official website.

“We will have to try to be as strong as possible where they hurt the most, try to be brave to attack the opponent.”

The Argentinian also called for patience from the club’s fans after their torrid start to the season.

“We have a point, it’s the truth, we have time for everything, it’s the beginning,” he added.

“I see the team are strong and with humility to reverse this situation, the difficulty is there but we have the human and football ability to turn the situation around.”
