Sergi Roberto starts in midfield for Spain against the Faroe Islands
The Barça man gets the nod from the off, but Alba and Busquets are on the bench
Sergi Roberto starts in midfield for a much-changed Spain side in Friday's European Championship qualifier against the Faroe Islands.
With Luis Enrique still absent for personal reasons, his assistant Robert Moreno had already confirmed that there would be changes with an eye on Monday's game against Sweden.
It means Barcelona midfielder Sergi Roberto starts in his favoured position, but Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets are among the big names to be left on the bench.
Atletico Madrid's Rodri and Villarreal's Santi Cazorla, on his return to international football after four years of injury hell, will partner Sergi Roberto in the middle.
After the game in the Faroe Islands, La Roja will return to Spain to play Sweden at the Bernabeu. The big debate is in goal, with Kepa starting on Friday ahead of David de Gea.
Spain XI: Kepa, Navas, Ramos, Hermoso, Gayà, Rodrigo, Cazorla, Sergi Roberto, Isco, Aspas & Morata.
