Great game today hope he continues like this.

pinpoint crosses.

Did Alves really only put in good crosses or was it just a dream??

 

[Yannick03]

Good game from Dani, hope he is set for the remaining season.

I'm having trouble believing it myself

Great game for Dani and a big slap in face for all the haters, who doubted him.

Great game by Dani today. I doubted him, and I still do, but honestly he was brilliant tonight. I did notice a moment when he got caught out of position in the exact same way he did when we conceded against Sociedad last week and another goal earlier in the season, but luckily, Malaga's attack wasn't quick enough to take advantage of it before he gets back to his spot.

Another great game for him.Geat composure for the first assist an a great cross for the second one.
He is for the first time healthy to play in consecutive games and he is getting back to his best..

The king of hit & miss crosses is back!

I was pleased with his crosses in this match. But he was defensively suspect again though Malaga's attack couldn't capitalize on it. He got caught out of position in the same way like in match against sociedad. I don't know if this is due to tactics, his slow pace or something else. I'm not being a hater but if we have to play both Alba and Alves as two attacking fullbacks they have to be pacey enough to track back or tactics should be different like only one of them should be further up the pitch at a time etc. else we should only play one of them at a time. We cant sacrifice our defense just to accommodate him

This pic is awesome on so many levels.

Well he's still having trouble keeping focus and is too complacent. True he had a couple of assists, kudos to him for that, but 3 minutes after his first assist to Pedro he missed a 4 yard pass which resulted in Malaga catching us on the back foot and scoring, he also did the same a few more timed and we were helpless. The clumsy fouls when he has no chance of getting the ball doesn't help us either. I'd still much prefer Montoya defensively, true Dani is more of an attacking threat, but with Monty on the right flank Alba can penetrate down the right more often.

+1. Either go with Alba or Alves, not both at the same time. At the moment the best option is Montoya+Alba IMO.
