Sergi Roberto says he is quickly adjusting to life at right-back after starring in Barcelona's 5-0 thrashing of 10-man Sporting Gijon in LaLiga on Saturday.
The 24-year-old is nominally a midfielder, but has been deployed at full-back to good effect by Luis Enrique so far in 2016-17, as Barca adjust to life without Dani Alves, who left for Juventus when his contract expired in the off-season.
"Every game I'm feeling happier, both in attack and defence," he said.
"I'm getting the opportunity to play, which is what I want, I'm really enjoying it. [I'm] very happy above all for the team."
"It was a very intense game from Sporting but in the end we were able to win the points," Roberto said.
"It was difficult to start with, they started very well. We couldn't play our usual game, they stopped up. But it really helped getting to half-time with two goals."
