Athletic Bilbao veteran Ander Herrera expects to start against Barcelona this weekend.
Herrera has started the last three games for Athletic.
He said, I'm not a hypocrite, I want to play and be a starter every day, but in a team like ours it's not easy to always do so.
"I am satisfied with being an option and being available, especially after last season, in which I could not always be. But then the coach decides, the internal competition is fantastic and many footballers are in a good moment.
I think we have different or varied weapons to be able to hurt them (Barca), but, obviously, we have to go to Barcelona with great respect and caution, because right now they have one of the best squads in Europe."
