It seemed that this could be a year in which it went disappearing of the alignments, but Andr\u00e9s Iniesta has rope for while. Julen Lopetegui and Ernesto Valverde trust he, and keep him to the controls of the Spanish selection and of the FC Barcelona<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

It is 33 years old and a curriculum more than stood out, but Andr\u00e9s Iniesta<\/strong> has not lost neither a pinch of his love for playing to football. The manchego has warned that no still does not want to think in the withdrawal, and that pretends to follow enjoying while it can. In the Spanish selection and the FC Barcelona<\/a> could not have received better his intentions<\/strong>.<\/p>

So much Julen Lopetegui like Ernesto Valverde have refused to give a secondary paper to a midfield player that is of vital importance in his plans<\/strong>. Further of the small injuries that have him lastrado in this start of season, to the captain expects him in the fight by the titles, and more in a year that will finish in a big international appointment, the World-wide.<\/p>

The Basque technician already recognised it in his last public intervention: “Being well, obviously is a player to the that consider very important for us. It has been fundamental and keeps on being it. It is an absolutely valid<\/a> player in his football, in his knowledge of the game and in his performance<\/strong>“.<\/p>

And the Txingurri has showed it to base of facts. The one of Fuentealbilla is the soul of his Bar\u00e7a, and good proof of this is that it has planted him like titling in 12 of the 13 parties in which it has been available. While Luis Enrique opted for giving him rest far of the lawn, the extreme\u00f1o has given with his own system: Always it plays the just and necessary, and afterwards, to the bench<\/a><\/strong>. In what it goes of course almost has bent his participation, with 900 minutes by the 490 that accumulated in the gone through the same dates.<\/p>

It accepts the challenge<\/h2>

The first in stepping forward in front of this new challenge has been the own Andr\u00e9s Iniesta, that has defended in the last months that is apt for the football of high level<\/strong>. It put end to his doubts sealing his renewal with the Bar\u00e7a, and after her has affirmed to feel in conditions to paginate the club with the selection<\/strong>. That like this it was.<\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
