I thought it was a good calll to have him play tonight, especially alongside Xavi. It's a strange decision when you look at it from another perspective (benching Iniesta, that is), but it still makes sense. Fabregas has been in very good form, Iniesta not so much, and he plays best with Xavi next to him. Good performance today. Not his best, but the team wasn't playing at their best as a unit either.
Correct sir... And it was very difficult to work or create something against Atlético's wall of death...
