Having just recently recovered from injury, Barcelona and Spains utility man, Andres Iniesta, is hoping to regain the sizzling form he showed throughout 2008.

Despite being absent for two months with a thigh injury, the 24-year-old has been roped straight into Vicente del Bosques La Seleccion for tonights friendly against England, where he looks certain to start the match.

Prior to the game, however, the Blaugrana was asked to compare the football played by his club and country.

Barca and Spain share the same ideas when it comes to the football style and philosophy, he said during the pre-match banter.

Both sides like to have control of the ball, to elaborate the plays, to move the ball around constantly, to attack, but also without forgetting about defending.

We are two different teams, but when it comes to talent, both are the same, he explained.

Iniesta, nicknamed El Nino de Coro [The Choir Boy] then revealed that he was delighted to see his young club-mates, Gerard Pique and Sergio Busquets earn their first call-ups the senior squad.

I am very happy for them and I think they will do well.

They have been doing really great so far this season and it is important to be rewarded with a call to the national team.

I hope they will get to make their debut tomorrow [tonight]. It will be a very special day for them, he concluded.
