The prolific striker needs to get more playing time under his belt in the Barcelona team that is packed with star players. Villa admits that it will be a difficult task to achieve as he is facing fierce competition for a regular
position in the squad.
The striker was hoping to get his first start of the season against Alaves in the Copa del Rey on Tuesday. And as it turned out, he got his first start of the season and ended up scoring a goal as Barcelona won the game 3-0. He
took his tally of goals to five so far this season.
"Like any footballer, I want to play as much as possible," Villa was quoted as saying on the official Barcelona website.
The 30-year-old said that Barcelona are the best team in the world and he realises that he faces intense competition at the club. Regardless, he believes that a lot of games will be played since Barcelona are involved in many competitions.
"I play at the best club in the world, though, and the competition to get playing time is very fierce. We play a lot of games and there are a lot of competitions. I’m at the coach’s disposition. There’s another game on Saturday,”
he explained.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 striker also spoke on his performance in Tuesday’s Copa del Rey encounter with Alaves.
"I’m pleased with my performance against Alaves. I’m returning to form and that’s really good for me, I feel good on the pitch," he admitted.
Meanwhile, Villa responded sarcastically when he was reminded of the fact that he had failed to find the back of the net in two consecutive games for almost a year.
“Yes, it is difficult to score in a clinic,” he joked.
Barcelona are yet to lose a match in La Liga this season. They are now at the top of the table with 25 points. Next match they will face Celta Vigo at Camp Nou on Saturday.
