http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Villa-c10629 has acknowledged that his injury will stop him from being a hundred percent, and that he is patient about the healing process.
The Barcelona forward has been missed for quite some time now. With a broken tibia that did not allow him to participate for most of last year’s season, the 30-year-old saw his international comeback in Spain’s international friendly against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Saudi-Arabia-c3000
in which he contributed to Spain’s 5-0 victory.
However, the Spaniard is still not in top form yet and stated that he still needs some time to become a part of the first-team.
“I have been sidelined for many months, almost eight months without playing. I have to be patient because rushing things now wouldn’t be good for anyone,” Villa said.
Since he has been classified as being fit to play, Villa is only coming on as a substitute and that too only if the result is beyond any reasonable doubt.
He managed to score for Barcelona in their opening La Liga match, and was able to score a penalty in Spain's friendly against Saudi Arabia in which they won five goals to nil.
The Spanish national stated due to the high level of competition in the Spanish league, and also due to the competition in his own club, Barcelona, that he is to be sidelined for a while, and that if it were any other club in any other league, he would be
playing.
“On other teams I would already be playing more, but this is Barcelona and the Spanish team, squads with very strong competition and very well prepared players,” said the thirty-year-old.
The striker broke his shinbone in the FIFA Club World Cup last year in December, and thus had to be sidelined till he has totally healed.
Barcelona are leading La Liga with nine points in three matches, with a five-point lead over arch-rivals and current La Liga champions, Real Madrid.
Villa has reported that his club’s match against Getafe is an important one because they lost to Getafe last year. Another reason as to why it is so important is because Getafe were able to beat Madrid this season.
Villa might be able to play a very important role in his match against Getafe as his fellow teammate and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604’s attacking midfielder, Andres Iniesta, has suffered an injury and will not be able to participate.
