Luis Enrique shrugs off winning record to focus on titles

Enrique: "Records do not interest me"

Barcelona head coach Luis Enrique has claimed that setting new records will not matter to him unless his side can achieve success this season.

A 5-0 thrashing of Levante handed Barcelona an 11th successive win in all competitions - the longest winning run since Pep Guardiola was in charge in the 2008-09 season - but Enrique insists that he is only interested in winning silverware.

"Guardiola's record? I didn't know I had equalled the 11 wins, records do not interest me. The idea is to enjoy ourselves," the Spaniard told reporters.

"We'll only value it when the season ends. If we win titles then that'd be very good. We've played a great second half. I'm happy. It's a victory that strengthens us all.

"This is a team that is accustomed to distractions from outside. It is important to focus and improve."

Barcelona are just a point behind La Liga leaders Real Madrid with 15 games left in the campaign.
