Leganes boss: I was surprised Valverde lined up with four forwards

Leganes coach Javier Aguirre says he was caught cold by Ernesto Valverde's decision to field four attackers in Saturday's 2-1 win at Butarque.

Valverde lined up with Antoine Griezmann, Lionel Messi, Ousmane Dembele and Luis Suarez, although his side still went in trailing by one goal at the break.

However, second-half strikes from Luis Suarez and Arturo Vidal turned the game around and earned the Catalans a hard-fought three points in Madrid.

"Ernesto surprised me with the four attackers," Aguirre told El Chiringuito. "It's scary on paper. I wasn't expecting it. My concern was where Messi was going to play. With the four upfront and (full-backs Moussa) Wague and (Junior) Firpo, they were attacking with six players."
