The Barcelona coach, Ernesto Valverde, thinks that it is difficult to replace Lionel Messi and compensate him for a player during his injury.
Messi was injured in the arm last Saturday in front of Seville, over a period of up to three or four weeks.
The absence of the Argentine star will deprive the Barca of his services to both Inter, Wednesday in the Champions League, as well as for the match against Real Madrid next Sunday.
Ronaldo change or strengthen his disappointing record against Mourinho?
"Of course, his absence will affect us, but it will be a new challenge for us to see if we can win without or without," he said at the press conference.
"We can change the game plan and not the method, we have plenty of options but I will not give Luciano Spalletti any clue to read what we are going to do."
"A player can not compensate for Messi, it depends on playing collectively."

As for the date of his return: "The doctors told us that we hoped to reduce the time of three weeks but we do not hope it because it is not a muscular problem."
The Barcelona president: able to compete without Messi
"We now have 6 points like Inter and we are going to play at home, so we want to take the opportunity to win this important match."
"We will face Inter at its best this season, they have won seven games in a row and that is reason enough to be careful."
Barcelona is leading Group B with six points behind Inter, Tottenham and Eindhoven up to now.
