Pique hasn't been very reliable lately, but I can't shake the feeling that there's just something in his head that prevents him from getting to his (current) best level and maintaining that for a longer than 3-4 games. There was a period in the first half of this season where he was really, really good. Following his injury. He was bossing the defense, clearing out set pieces and shots with ease, and was just generally reliable, confident and in good form. When he's at his best, he's really one of the best CBs in the world right now. (In all fairness, there aren't many very good ones to choose from.) He can do it, but for whatever reason, he just doesn't most of the time. He has the ability, but his head is not in it.
