Andres Iniesta has insisted that he never had any doubts Barcelona could be successful this season.
The Catalans went through a difficult moment at the start of 2015 and
there were doubts as to whether head coach Luis Enrique was the right
man for the job.
However, they have since embarked on a 10-game winning streak, with
Wednesday's 3-1 Copa del Rey win over Villarreal being their latest
victory, and Iniesta is keen to make the most of their good run of form.
"I've always been confident about the team’s performances," Iniesta told the official Barcelona website.
"It's true that at the moment the team's playing well and when that happens you have to make the most of it and try to improve."
Iniesta then went on to voice his satisfaction with the midweek first
leg semi-final victory, yet insisted that nothing has been decided just
yet.
"We made a big effort; it was a shame about conceding a goal. The
most important thing is that we're 90 minutes away from the final. We'll
have to go to Villarreal and put in a complete performance and be
switched on in every sense.
"We know we could have scored more goals, but the chances have to be
taken. The result is what it is and we aren't unhappy. The goal was to
win and get a good result.
"El Madrigal is a stadium that's demanding. It's a small ground.
There's almost a month before the second leg and we have to be happy
about the goals."
The return in Vila-Real is scheduled to take place on March 4.
