Gerard Pique: 'Barcelona are bomb-proof'

Gerard Pique describes the current Barcelona team as "bomb-proof" as his side edges closer towards sealing a treble.

Gerard Pique has described the current Barcelona team as "bomb-proof" as they edge closer towards sealing the treble.

The Catalans have the chance to win the Primera Division title this Sunday but will have to overcome reigning La Liga champions Atletico Madrid in the process.

Barca are already in the finals of both the Champions League and Copa del Rey and their Spanish defender believes that the team can deal with anything that is thrown at them.

"To have the chance to win the treble is very good and rare," Pique told reporters.

"We didn't have these expectations in January and not at the beginning of the season. It's very difficult. You always go through difficult moments as we did the last time we won the treble but we have got through those times. This team is bomb-proof.

"We haven't won any titles yet. We have to keep our feet on the ground. I want to win La Liga. I don't care when or where. Hopefully, it will be at the Calderon but players don't decide where they win trophies."

Barca need one win from their last two games to confirm their status as the best in the league, with just four points separating them and their rivals Real Madrid in second.
