"I have felt many strange feelings for the first time, but I think this may be normal. "This is a scenario that, probably three years ago, I could never have imagined."Let's say that I sometimes ask myself about my future when I didn't do it before."Barcelona open their LaLiga campaign at home to Real Betis on Sunday with striker Luis Suarez absent alongside Iniesta due to an knee injury.  The playmaker is keen for his team-mates to get back to winning ways after their humbling against Madrid."I feel like everyone else, with enthusiasm and ambition to win again and to recover that respect we've had for a long time," he said. "[Madrid] are a great team, with the best players in the world, but I want to say that our challenge is to find what we lost last year."The Supercopa was a painful defeat because it was the first title we could win but they were very effective."All the defeats, especially against Madrid, always raise questions, [as does] the situation that has taken place in the last few weeks.</blockquote>
