Beside the responsibility to be the first captain of the FC Barcelona, Andrés Iniesta has evolved in his football until being indispensable in the direction of the Barcelona team. It has been the one who better has answered in the hard moments
Beyond all doubt, if there is a footballer that carries holding the good level that requires his place in the FC Barcelona in the last months (included critical series) that has been Andrés Iniesta. The midfield player manchego has evolved so much since Luis Enrique directs to the first team blaugrana that although the previous campaign remained defined his new role inside the creation and direction of the team, in this has confirmed beside the defensive sacrifice.
As the first captain blaugrana has evolved of a spectacular way in these two last campaigns with the Asturian in the footpath. Andrés no longer is this footballer talentoso that sometimes it exerted in the left-handed extreme of the team or sometimes incrustaba behind Leo Messi and the forward. Now Andrés is Don Andrés, a man of hierarchy inside the team, with a totally different role.
This evolution in the football of Iniesta has carried him to the direction of the team from the left interior. A man sacrificed, that leaves the skin on the terrain of game, that steals balloons mansalva and that awake with chispazos of quality in each party whenever it is necessary to do a fast offensive transition defence-attack. These last parties show that the one of Fuentealbilla is better that never.
And as they say in the world of the balompié, what is very better to not to touch it. Therefore Iniesta already has played more minutes in the League BBVA 2015-2016 that the past campaign. Also it has to take into account that his substitute the past course, a Xavi Hernández, no longer is in the club and "Struggle" does not have a man of garantís for this, until it do not adapt of the all Burn Turan.
Like this then , Iniesta has contested 3.133 minutes this season in domestic competition, by the 2.916 of the past year. At all it has to see the Iniesta of now with the past, a stronger footballer muscular and psíquicamente. A leader that has evolved until being the indispensable man that is now. And of his boots, bracelet and direction depend big part of the options to raise League and Glass this campaign.
