Spain continued their Nations League campaign with a narrow 1-0 victory on Switzerland land on Saturday night, keeping them top of their group.
Former Barcelona boss Luis Enrique has named the veterans players including Real Madrid’s Sergio Ramos and Barcelona’s Sergio Busquets.
“I focus on going season to season. It is clear that I am no longer 20-years-old and I cannot look much into the future. I feel fine.” Busquets said.
“It depends on each situation of each player. A new but peculiar season has begun. I hope I can last a long time in the national team.” he added.
Barcelona finished second place in the 2019-20 season, five points clear behind Madrid. Their defense is not good since last two years. It is also because Busquets is much slower now due to his age.
Despite having world-class players in each position and emerging youngsters, their back-up for a central defender Samuel Umtiti, who underwent surgery on his ligament strain in last season must be a root cause for their recent fall.
“One thing is what happens outside, which is not the best moment of the club. And another what happens in the field, which was not our best year and it shows at an individual and collective level.” Busquets said.
“If I stopped to give my opinion carefully, it could be five or six hours. On the field it was not our best year. Football is a team sport and if you are not well collectively, you will not be individually.
“But it has already happened and we have a new opportunity. Things have changed and we hope it will get better.” Busqets added.
Barca have been in their superb form so far. They are currently fifth place in the La Liga table with 7 points after playing three games.
