Barcelona forward Lionel Messi has said that he and his teammates are determined to achieve success this season.

The Spanish giants could only win the Copa del Rey last season, as they finished second in La Liga and failed to progress to the final of the Champions League.

"I do not know what went wrong last season," he told Voetbal International. "But we will try our utmost to make sure it does not happen again and that we should be hungry for more."

Barcelona are currently six points clear at the top of the table in La Liga and have also qualified for the Champions League last 16.
