Ivan Rakitic admits he has Champions League ambitions with Barcelona.

Reaching the World Cup final was a massive achievement for all of the Croatian players, although Rakitic would have liked to have done better with Barcelona in the Champions League.

"Now that several months have passed you can say that we might have done things differently," he said of the 3-0 loss away at Roma last season.

"People get smarter and analyse things.

"It's good for us to learn from that and to not go through something like that again.

"Of course there were things we could have done better."
