Bruno Fernandes has risked a problem with Manchester United team-mate Paul Pogba by admitting his favourite position is a mix between No 8 and No 10.
That’s where the France international has operated in previous years - although his role did change earlier in the season.
Fernandes said: “The one I liked to watch and follow was Iniesta, because Iniesta is a mix between an eight and a 10.
“It is a way I can do better, between eight and 10.
“It is the guy who always likes to have the ball, who always likes to take the risks, and I think Iniesta was one of the best in the world.
“For me, it was impressive how Iniesta finished his career without the Ballon d'Or [award]. With everything he won, it is difficult for me to understand!”

Manchester United have no intention of recalling Dean Henderson from his loan spell at Sheffield United.
That’s according to the Daily Mail, who say the Red Devils are happy for the 23-year-old to stay with Chris Wilder’s side.
Henderson has been a vital player for the Blades, keeping 10 clean sheets - the same amount as Liverpool’s Alisson Becker and Leicester’s Kasper Schmeichel.
United don’t feel now is the time for him to head back and rival David De Gea for the No 1 spot.
What happens with him beyond the season’s end, though, remains to be seen.

Guillem Balague opens up on Jadon Sancho
Guillem Balague has opened up on Jadon Sancho and feels both United and Chelsea may not be able to sign the 20-year-old this summer.
"I know that obviously Chelsea has looked into the possibility of Sancho, so has Manchester United," Balague said on his YouTube channel.
"Sancho is playing with the idea of either staying or going but it needs a huge investment to take Sancho away from Borussia Dortmund right now. We will see if that money's available.
"If anybody's got it, according to all the agents I have spoken to, it will be Chelsea or Manchester United or Manchester City - but if Manchester City don't have European football, it leaves Manchester United and Chelsea.
"I have spoken to Chelsea in terms of a couple of suggestions of players that have been mentioned related to them and they said: 'We just don't want to make investments, big investments'.
"It leaves then Manchester United who are also saying 'forget about players that would cost £100m-plus' - that would be Sancho.”
