Barcelona boss Luis Enrique has suggested that he has a good relationship with his players following reports that his job is under threat after a dispute with Lionel Messi.
Widespread reports have claimed that the 44-year-old's position is in doubt after he chose to drop Messi and Neymar to the bench for last weekend's 1-0 defeat to Real Sociedad.
"I speak to all the players, of course I do," Enrique told reporters. "I can't speak individually to every player every day. I have said so many times is there any need to say it again.
"Lionel Messi is important, he is the greatest player in the world. I have said that enough times, it doesn't make sense repeating myself."
Enrique became Barca boss in May.
