"My paper does not change, will try to be an important player"

Andrés Iniesta will not be able to play this Sunday in the Camp Nou in front of the Real Betis. The physical annoyances will prevent it to him, as it already occurred in the turn of the Supercopa of Spain. To the manchego always him atragantan the principles of season after all the physical work. But his illusion remains intact.

And it has showed it in an interesting interview this Sunday in 'El País'. Asked after how smells him the season: "it smells Me like all, with illusion and ambition to go back to win. And recover this respect that have had long", has answered the captain, careful but unsuspecting.

It has analysed the defeat against the Madrid in the Supercopa: "it Is a painful defeat because it was the first title that could win, but were very effective. All type of defeats, and more against the Madrid, always generate doubts by all what surrounds them. Also it adds the situation that has lived in the ultimas weeks, but for us has to be a challenge go back to do the things well".

Iniesta still has not renewed, although Valverde already has transmitted him his maximum confidence: "To all likes us that they appreciate us, value and respect. Although I always have felt here the affection and the respect of all, do not have any doubt. But also I have clear that in this club never can lose the respect to people that have given the life by these colours. It would not have to lose and sometimes can give the feeling that yes".

But he no descarta at all: " I have not renewed still… I Have experienced a lot of feelings that desconocía, but that think that are normal. It is a stage that three years ago surely never could me have imagined… Say that I pose me the future when before it did not do it".

"Each one is owner of his future and chooses what believes the best for him and his people. There is not discussion. If I do not want to be here, I go me to another side. This can not argue by more than one of the Barça had wanted to that was other 10 years with us. And it is necessary to put also in his place. It is what has chosen and there is not a lot that say", has explained Iniesta.

It will be a sensitive drop, but at all changes to level futbolístico: "As I have said, the idea does not change. We go to see how finish this month, the people that comes and, with all enclosed, will see the options that there is. But our game goes through the command and the balance, very compacted. When we have gone out us of these norms have suffered a lot.
