In statements conceded in press conference, Ivan Rakitic showed optimist of face to the performance that will show the FC Barcelona in the next appointments although it no longer can have Leo Messi until the second fortnight of November. "Have very good feelings and with a lot of illusion. We want to show to our fans that are with hunger and do it the best possible. The drop of Messi affects us a lot, is evident. It hurts not having to the best player of the world, but want to offer him the triumph. All want to play and opened a door".

"We wish that it return what before better. We know of the importance of Leo for us. We trust the team, and that was not Messi changes a lot of things, but no the confidence. We will throw advance and between all will achieve it. It sees him very animated and this is very important. The recovery has to begin with spirit and this is important. We expect that it go back the before possible", has added the Croatian midfield player, that has clear the way to be followed.

"Always we go out to win and arrives the second day. We want to and we need to win. It will be very complicated and will have to do a very complete party". The present goes through to win the Tuesday to the Bayer Leverkusen, team that Rakitic knows very well of his go through the Bundesliga. "I know very well to this team and have excompañeros there. They are very worked, very strong and will not have doubts to do his game. We will have to be very attentive and learn of the errors committed. We are very well and we want to follow like this". The model of game will not change without the presence of Messi.

"The idea in general of the game of the team will not change. This is a very joined group and trust the role of each one. We do not have to regret us more". It is conscious that the FC Barcelona has to be more effective of face to door. "We go to be followed working and when it begin to go in the better ball. If now it does not go in and we win, well, but when they begin to go in the goals, still will be stronger". For this will be very important that Luis Suárez follow marking.

"The importance of Luis neither changes by not being Leo. It is a reference for us and helps us a lot in the defensive appearance. It would like me that it went to the selection, but if it rests, is not neither badly". In defence, besides, the FC Barcelona will have to improve also. "We have to improve a lot of things, but also fit in each played. We leave it backwards, we speak it. We trust all the team, no only in the goalkeeper. We trust to spare in what we are doing. With Ter Stegen have one of the best put of the world".
