Sergio Busquets: 'We must improve'

Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets calls on his side to improve if they are to secure the La Liga title this season.

Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets has admitted that his side must improve following Sunday's 4-1 victory over Almeria at the Camp Nou.

The Catalan outfit struggled to find their best form in the La Liga clash, but scored twice late on through Carlos Puyol and Xavi to add gloss to the scoreline.

"It was not our best game, but we're a little closer to the leader," he told Canal Plus.

"There are good things and things we need to improve on, but we leave for our mini-break for the international fixtures in a good mood.

"We need to stop players from scoring in aerial duels, but we're not very tall. It's not our strong point."

Barca currently sit one point behind league leaders Real Madrid in the table.
