te amo barca
Blaugrana al vent
To understand what Valverde likes when it comes to Midfielders, you just have to look at his Bilbao.
He absolutely loved his standard simple Midfielders like Mikel San Jose, Benat, etc. Guys who ordinary and serviceable, easy to mold them into pressing, defending and trying to win the ball back style of players while the more creative players in the team such as the attackers do all creative work to try and get it to Adruiz to score.
Benat is a bad example I think. He is very intelligent with good passing and technique. There was a time when he was being linked with a move to Barca.
