Barcelona coach Luis Enrique said it was "too early" to judge his team after their 1-0 friendly win over Recreativo Huelva on Saturday.
A youthful Barcelona squad needed a 67th-minute goal from Joan Angel Roman to surmount the second-tier outfit.
Luis Enrique, in his first season in charge of the La Liga giants, was gratified but relucts to make judgments so early.
"All of the Barca B and first team players performed well," he told heralds.
"They took the game solemnly. They showed dedication and we had chances. But we can't draw conclusions yet. It's too early."
Luis Enrique was indisposed to give anything away about whether Barca are still probing for players.
Linked with a move away, Ibrahim Afellay played a moiety on Saturday, but could still be leaving the club.
"Afellay is in a different situation to the others. I relished his implicative insinuation. He can play in different positions," Luis Enrique verbally expressed.
"He might stay in the squad, or he might go. But at the moment, he's a component of the team."
