Sir Alex Ferguson has admitted Manchester United must find a way of stopping Barcelona's own Holy Trinity if they are to stand any chance of winning the Champions League later this month.
With only a point required from their final two games to claim a record 19th league title, United are already looking towards the rematch of their 2009 final, when they were comfortably defeated by Pep Guardiola's all-star team.
The Catalans will be favourites this time around too. And, whilst Ferguson has plenty of faith in his champions-elect, he realises Barcelona's main men have to be stopped.
"Obviously, Barcelona is the big one now," Ferguson told US-based satellite radio station Sirius XM.
"In the final last time we started off really well, then gave away a bad goal. After that Barcelona kept the ball very well, as they always do.
"What we have to do is find a solution to the Xavi-Messi-Iniesta problem.
"Everyone is searching for that because they are outstanding footballers. We have our share too," he added.
