BARCELONA (Reuters) - Barcelona defender Gerard Pique admitted his side have a problem with their porous defence after the La Liga leaders were beaten 4-3 at home by Real Betis on Sunday, conceding four times at the Nou Camp for the first time in over 15 years.

Yet the Spanish international, while conceding that all their defenders all needed to improve, was also adamant that the champions' fans should not be worried about the current frailties of the team's rearguard.
