Sergi Roberto was delighted with his chance in Barcelona's win over Eibar.
Speaking after the game, Roberto said he felt comfortable playing in a role usually fulfilled by Sergi Busquets or Javier Mascherano.
"I have been practicing in that position all week and when I saw that the boss had included me in the starting eleven, I was really happy I am happy with my game, but even more for the win because it was very important considering the difficult week we have ahead."
