Barcelona manager Luis Enrique has admitted that his side's performance against Almeria on Saturday was their worst performance this season.
The Catalans came from a goal down to secure a 2-1 victory over Almeria, in a game that they laboured to win.
Having lost their last three games prior to the match, Barcelona were looking at not making it three losses on the bounce, the first they would have experienced since 2003 if it had happened.
Enrique said after the game that: "In footballing terms, I think it was our worst performance of the season. I can't really tell you what went wrong in the first half. The second was different. We still didn't play well, but we showed great doggedness to take the three points."
On the changes he made to the starting XI: "It's hard to say whether the team is where I expected them to be. I'm constantly going to be making changes."
"To triumph in a season you also need to win the games when you play badly, like today. That's key."
