6 - Carles Alena

He is too predictable. He always goes to his left. As a midfielder he needs to move to the right otherwise I dont think he will make it big as it is a big limitation.

He and Puig still play like they're in the young team - lack of mature
They have flashes of talent but sometime were careless and rely too much on personal effort to get out of difficult situations or try to breakthrough opponent's lines. Those mistakes are much lesser when he played with the first team - maybe you need to be more responsible when playing along side senior players
He has talent to become great player and now he needs consistent play time in higher level to develop. Maybe one year on loan will do him well.

I like his approach to the game, but you also need enough talent. The team is better off with Sergi Roberto getting some some midfielder playing time, instead of Alena. Alena deserves the chance to play regularly, for Ajax next season. Along with Puig.

Very good second half. Looks like he gets more and more confident, his ball carrying could be really useful. None of our other midfielders has that in their locker.

Probably his best match for Barca. Like that he moves a lot, presses intensely, also doesn't seem to tire soon. What I don't like is his awareness which was off quite a few times during the match. So was his weighing of passes under pressure. But a good match, on the ball too. Slowly started to doubt him after a series of poor performances. Should be given lots of chances in the coming weeks.
