One of the most underrated player in the world. He might not have the composure of Xavi but he is in his own level. Has scored in some of the biggest games last year and is picking up steam this year.

Love him

Here's the translation:

2 months ago we rented a house on a beach that we may end up buying. Now I live 15 minutes from Camp Nou and our camp.

I grew up in Switzerland so I love winter too. For Christmas I had 4 days off so we went to Andora. We went to hills but sadly there was no snow.

In 2015 things went well for me on the pitch and also privately. My wife is pregnant again and in 4 months we are expecting another daughter.

I know it'll be difficult to repeat 2015., but I'll do my best to make 2016. at least close to it. Noone ever defended the Champions League title and that's a new challenge for Barcelona.
Most impressive moment for me was the goal in Champions League Final.

Despite losing some points we've been a better side in all matches. We weren't lucky ar times and missed a lot of chances but everything will fall to it's place, we're not panicking.

Competition with Arda doesn't worry me. I've shown in this year and a half what I'm capable of and I think I've proven my worth so I am not worried about starting 11 spot.
I already started talks about a new contract and there could be some news there in the future.

I spend a lot of time with my teammates so I'm using every opportunity to be with my family. Not only me but all my teammates do the same. I think I have fit in well with Barca stars, and when it comes to Barca style, frankly, one gets used to it easily.

When I visit local TV stations, I am asked questions in Catalan and I understand it well but I can't speak it good so I answer in Spanish.

I don't like to comment on our rivals. I am in contact with Luka (Modric) and Mateo (Kovačić) and I wish them all the best, to play good but also to always be behind us. (laughs)

I didn't see Stoichkov (Bulgarian said Rakitic wasn't good enough for Barca), he didn't apologise but everyone is entitled to his opinion.

Our group on Euro with Spain, Czech R. and Turkey will be a challenge and I already talked with some Spanish NT players from Barca and Arda Turan. There will be some bets too. (laughs).

Contract renovation? Seriously ?

His contracts ends in 2019, what's the rush ? or already a pay raise ?
