Iniesta does not exclude the possibility to play against Alaves

The captain of Barcelona Andres Iniesta does not exclude the possibility to play in the upcoming game via arbitrage betting against Alaves from the third round of La Liga.
`Now I`m training with the ball and I feel much better. I still can`t say definitively whether I will play against Alaves because the head coach has the final word. I am optimistic, because my knee feels fine. The season is long, so the most important thing is to remain calm. I have a feeling it will be a strong year for Barcelona.`, said Iniesta.
`Lionel Messi feels better now, and I think he can also play against Alaves.`, added the captain of Barcelona.
`I don`t think that there are irreplaceable players in Barcelona. I see my replacement in the face of Denis. The most important thing is that Barcelona continues to possess a team of very high level and continue to develop.`
`I think Bravo made his decision to continue his career in another team. Maybe it`s best for him, and for Barcelona. My opinion is a little different. I think he is a great goalkeeper and I had to stay with us.`, the midfielder continued.
`Sergi Roberto has evolved enormously. He grew up in an amazing way last season and is now a part of the national team. I`m very happy for him.`
`It`s never easy to adapt to such a specific system, such as the one in Barcelona. At the same time, I think the adaptation of Paco Alcacer will pass quickly. He`s a good football player who combines good, has a good touch on the ball, he knows how to score goals.`
`I don`t know if this is the strongest team of Barcelona. Certainly, however, this is a team that can win all the titles and I believe it will do everything necessary to accomplish this.`
`I have never hidden my desire to play in Barcelona until the end of my career. It will be very special for me.`, said Andres Iniesta.
