The funny thing is, he played better as a right back than a midfielder. In one game he did more quality crosses than Alves in 5 games.

Actually Barcelona won because Messi on the right wing stretched the opponents midfield, almost always creating an overload on the left hand side of the pitch. Messi by himself takes 2 players just to try and stop him, if Alves goes past Messi it takes 3 players on the right side of the pitch to...

The difference is in the A team you cannot put 3 players on Adama if Messi, Neymar or Suarez are on the pitch. Adama is perfect for being a super sub, he is strong, quick and he can dribble.

He does the one thing Alves no longer does, he takes on players inside and outside. Most teams will give Alves the entire right hand side and just mark Messi, as Alves will only pass or poorly cross the ball. With Vidal they will have to at least put 1 or 2 players on him which will give Messi...

Against Huesca in the Copa del Rey. The problem with Adama and the others is that they were managed by Eusebio who does not really talk to players. Hopefully a new manager will come in and actually talk and tell the players what they have to do, which would help out Adama from being too...
