Daniel Alves

[KingMessi]

At this point we might as well play Douglas (since Montoya no longer exists) just so he can get over his confidence issues. We fucked up by not picking up a new starting caliber rightback this summer.

The best thing he did today was the yellow card.

I thought it was the pretty good assist...silly me.

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

His assist was incredible. Apart from that Dani was average. Why does he not try to play more passes like the one that led to Leo's goal?
Clever, LOW and precise passes to his teammates instead of pointless crossing.

Nah. the yellow card means we won't have to endure him in a big game. The assist was just stat padding for Messi. The yellow card means we might have a chance next CL game.

Because most of the time he's not looking up for a pass. He crosses the ball to nobody and gets praised for it. Madness.

It's not like we have better options at RB, Montoya who hasn't played a game in 2 years, Doglas and our utility glass man Adriano.

Montoya doesn't like to attack and rarely crosses. That's a positive right there.

Douglas doesn't have the balls to waste our possession so much. That's a positive right there (Somehow).

Adriano is just some sand and ash away from being a literal glass cannon, and that could be valuable as well.

Seriously, Montoya, or Douglas for that matter, can't offer any less than what he's doing these days...

Rated as our 3rd best playe on whoscored.

Some awful shots though.

Great game from him today. Well terrible crossing, but great great passing that made up for it. I don't see what RB replacement we're gonna get that can play the style he can. I'm looking forward to seeing someone else give it a try next game

 

[Alarcón]

I can see why Lucho likes him as he contributes and combines a lot in attack, especially when our tactics work. That said, I have no doubt he'll lose the ball much more often against big teams. We really need to find us a player who does what Dani does but doesn't come with his massive deficiencies.

Care to mention some names? I can't seem to think of any.

Messi on the wing more=Alves troubles gone. No more dumb passes, stupid crosses. He seems to feed off playing well alongside Leo and it helps the rest of his game. Trust me. This man connection with Leo is too good. I don't see any other RB capable of it.

Hes nominated for best defender 2014, good luck alves

 

[Ursegor]

Good game from him.
