MY MAN MATS, Broke the la liga record for most touches in a game by a goalkeeper.
I'm not missing Bravo one bit

Some ppl will always see him in negative light. Ergo, regardless of how he fares, it will never be good enough for them.

 

[Flavia]

Having him in goal is like having another outfield-player on the pitch. Sure, made a couple of sloppy passes, but then again it was his first match in months i believe. Apparently had more touches to the ball than any other goalkeeper in approx. 10 years.

It was strange how many passes he had.

More than Busi and Raki.

Bravo who? Sorry but it's hard to miss him when you have someone like Mats, I can't believe some people still don't appreciate the talented gk Barca has in their hands.. the team is truly lucky to have a gk like him.

 

[dakt]

lol...next Xavi.

 

[Antimadridista1]

I absolutely love this guy.
His technical quality is WAY above most GK.

Yes, he can't fail at passing times to times but he's amazing.

 

[Devils]

His passing was flawless for the most part too aside from those two mistakes.

I'm a big fan of his lobbed passes too, they are flawless.

He did some showboating today. His passing needs to be better especially those weird lob passes, almost cost us a goal. There are instances where defenders were not ready and if the attacker pressed little more could have turned out bad. Overall good game not flawless but good. Nothing amazing from that stat. Barca were struggling and had to pass the ball to GK to start back again. What is done is done, he is our main GK now. Lets hope he takes more calculated risk and perfects his passing. Tbf he was coming off from injury and san mames is a hard place to play.

 

[te amo barca]

13 accurate long balls.

Agreed.

 

[mark1nhu]

His passing ability is unreal. Made one sloppy pass, but other than that has been excellent in his distribution!

Yep.

Also, each one of the defenders gave the ball for free to a Bilbao player, due to their impressive pressure.

Having a keeper so good on his feet was instrumental to survive that pressure.

 

[zanela]

It was strange how many passes he had.

And let's not forget most of his passes were made under intense pressure by the opposition.

He just had one bad pass though. His passing was brilliant. Several times played it out longer directly to a player of ours countering Athletic's press and leaving them frustrated.

His long range passing is pretty amazing actually. He needs more coordination with defense for the short range passing. That can be achieved with more game time.
