Perfect start for Guardiola

New Barcelona head coach Josep Guardiola was delighted to see his reign start with a 4-0 Champions League victory at home to Wisla Krakow.
Two goals from Samuel Eto'o and further strikes from Xavi and Thierry Henry gave Barca a comfortable cushion to take to Poland for the second leg of their third qualifying round tie.
Guardiola said afterwards: "The team made it easy for me, because although it was a game with a lot of tension, I'm only on the bench to correct some things and the players made my life easier.
"The feelings are good because we created a lot of opportunities, but it will not all be like that.
"We scored a lot of goals and we created a lot of chances and I am also happy not to have conceded any goals, because in these types of ties it is vital not to concede.
"We know that we did some things well and others not so well."
