He’s right man, Ini?

-

ANDRES INIESTA has backed Barcelona’s appointmen­t of new coach Gerardo Martino.

The 50-year-old Argentinia­n succeeds Tito Vilanova, who stepped down from the role as he continues his battle with cancer.

And midfielder Iniesta believes Martino will fit in with the Catalan club’s football philosophy.

“The club wouldn’t have gone for a coach who doesn’t fit in as they have clear ideas about what they want,” he said.

“Every season we have to have high hopes of winning titles.”
