Barcelona president Rosell proud of Vilanova appointment

Barcelona president Sandro Rosell is looking forward to the new season under coach Tito Vilanova.

Vilanova succeeds Pep Guardiola at Barca.

Rosell declared: "Thank you very much, Pep. We won 14 titles in 4 years. Thank you, not only for the amount of silverware you won but for how you did it. You accomplished these things with the values that we want to teach the children at La Masia."

He then talked about Barça's newly appointed manager: "We're all with Tito. He represents the continuation of a successful model; our way of playing won't change and the players are delighted to have him. He has our absolute support."
