[FCBarca]

Good call, does look like him

 

[ShandyFFM]

[abual3bed1]

would've been more useful to start than coming in late.

His sub was more like a prayer to the skies than a tactical change to be honest... He should have been brought in earlier...

 

[Yugi]

should have started, but I see Tito´s plan now
start Cesc in la liga, start Xavi and Iniesta in CL
that´s why Cesc started every Liga plan

 

[Gennaro]

Should have started imo. Hes just way more decisive and direct than Xavi right now.

 

[BarcaGirl]

agree with everyone who says, that he should have started.

sorry to say and please don't jump on me, but Xavi/Iniesta were pretty useless tonight.

He did look pretty good when he got in. Should have started, just like Villa.

In fact, technically Xavi's error (Believe it or not) cost us the game..

I saw an interesting moment near the end of the game. Where we got a corner kick, and Cesc was running to go take it. You can tell he wanted to take the initiative and just take it quick... he was close to kicking it... but Xavi came over and took it for him. IT was kind of an awkward exchange. I think it shows the general dynamic of the team there. Xavi is the boss, and the order should be maintained.

But in a situation like this, I would have much rather had Cesc just take it and keep the game flowing. He's just as perfectly capable as Xavi is, and sometimes even more so, such as times like tonight where Xavi is playing sub-par. In that moment, Cesc seemed more in the game than xavi, and plus waiting for Xavi slowed the game down even more at a time when we needed to be moving urgently.

Cesc was looking very good when he came on. In one play he would go from starting in DM position to being right in the box for a cross a few seconds later. He's very dynamic... and always looking to attack. Very valuable to us, especially since Xavi and Iniesta seem to not really care about making through balls/attacking passes these days.

Hope he starts starting more CL games... and continues starting Liga games to stay on his roll and keep building momentum on his form.
