Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets has turned up the heat ahead of their derby clash with Espanyol.

Asked if he was concerned Barca's city rivals would be relegated this season, Busquets replied: "I couldn't care less.

"Three teams are relegated from the Liga every season and we should just worry about ourselves. I do not care who those three teams are."

Asked about Samuel Eto'o's situation, Busquets added: "He is very important for us. He is among the best strikers in the world and I hope he continues with us."
