Denis Suárez is having an intermittent role in the start of the season and although he does not enjoy the continuity he would like, he is taking advantage of the opportunities that Valverde gives him. Napoli insists on signing him, but Galician reiterates that his only wish is to succeed as a Barça player. And does not hide his discomfort to be exposed in the 'showcase' of the transfer market.
What is your assessment of your season so far?
The balance at the personal level is very positive. I think I have taken a step forward with respect to last season, I have shown it on the field the minutes in which I have been given the opportunity, I have responded and my teammates encourage me to do my football. My game is very Barça style and when you have opportunities, to make the most of them.
Have you played more or less than you expected?
You always want to play more, but I have a very calm conscience, because I know that when I played I gave the level and I showed that I have a place in this team.
Do you think you deserved more minutes for the performance you have offered?
That depends on the coach and the options he has and wants. I gave a great level, I showed it in Getafe, coming out in the second half, against Eibar when I was given the opportunity and against Las Palmas. Then I was four or five games without playing, I returned to Olympiacos ... but in general satisfied with my performance.
He says he has taken a step forward from last season. What has changed?
I play with much more ease, with more personality. Last year was new, I did not know all the teammates, but this year I feel much more comfortable in the team, the teammates already know me and help me and encourage me to do my game.
Denis does not just explode because it has no continuity or has no continuity because it does not just explode?
I do not know, I think that when I have given continuity in two or three matches I have performed at a great level, I have contributed goals and assists, in the end it is certain that when you play three, four matches in a row is much easier than when you play a game yes and four do not. But that depends on the coach, with whom I am very satisfied with how he has treated me from the beginning and when he wants to put me there I will be.
Do you talk to the coach about your situation and why do you sometimes play and sometimes not?
No, we do not talk about that. We are a very broad team, in my position there are many players and Iniesta is performing at a great level. When I was given the opportunity I took advantage of it, I worked hard every day to play, because as I have always said, my dream is to succeed at Barça and be here for many years.
At the football level what does Valverde ask?
It's a bit different from last year, because in that left inside position you play practically without an end, as if it were a 4-4-2 and I feel very comfortable.
Does Valverde's style favor him more than Luis Enrique's?
I think so, because I play with a little more freedom and that helps me.
Naples insists on signing him in the winter market...
I do not want to leave here, I've said it for a long time. My teammates encouraged me to continue in the summer and I do not intend to move from here, I want to succeed at Barça. I have the feeling, I do not know if on the part of the club, that whatever I do I am exposed in the market. I have rejected those proposals, so the rumors that come out do not come from me, I have not heard any offers.
Have you felt pressured to accept any offer and be transferred?
If it's true that I said I was not going to move, I was very clear before the season started, but every time the transfer market approaches, it seems that they put me on the market, when I never said that I want to go. I am willing to succeed here, because I consider myself at home and I think my style fits a lot in this club.
Why do you think they put you on the market?
Well I do not know, I do not know.
