Roura: "The relationship between Villa and Messi is very good"

"I've always said that David was very important for us. He is a special player with a real nose for goal: he’s coming into his element.

Speaking about the relationship between Messi and Villa, Jordi Roura commented: "I’ve heard it said many times that there is a rift between them, but that's absurd. Right now their relationship is just as good as it was a few months ago. By that I mean very good," he said.
"I've always said that David was very important for us. He is a special player with a real nose for goal: he’s coming into his element. Every game is a different story. He’s a very important player and this week he’s really helped us," the stand-in Barça boss remarked.
"It's a whole bundle of things, but the bottom line is he’s an outstanding player. On an emotional level it was important for him to score against Milan and the fact that he’s changed to a more central position too. We’re always delighted when he scores," he said.
