Lionel Messi admits his season with Barcelona has been affected by problems on and off the pitch.
Messi battled off-field issues last year as he faced an investigation into his tax affairs and the death of former coach Tito Vilanova in April.
"I feel fine," Messi said. "I'm happy with the way things are going. I want to keep helping this team.
"Last year was not a good one for us. There were too many problems on and off the pitch. But I hope all that changes this year."
