Pretty sure Tito has put him below Villa in the pecking order now. He's been absolutely horrible at finishing (Heskey horrible) and wastes possession quite a bit. So with Villa and Pedro scoring and Iniesta providing a great creative spark, i doubt Alexis will see any playing time in important games unless we are winning by a large margin and Tito wants a laugh.
shouldve scored really but i wouldnt jump right at him like most people here love to do. barca have 3 points in their pocket and thats the most important thing, 4-1 or 3-1 doesn't matter.

Kid can't finish.
Which kinda explains why we lost two of our titles
yeah but thats not alexis' fault no?
Yes it is. He failed several EASY chances against Chelsea and so did Fabregas. Fabregas is MUCH improved now but Alexis is still very mediocre.
You sort of get the feeling though, that this is as good as it will get and he's not going to be scoring 25 goals a season. Remember too, that at Udinese the side was set up to get the best out of him, which certainly is not the case at Barca.
