I knew he would do better eventually. Just needed confidence. I still dream about a Rakitic-Busi-Kroos middle, though. Raki-Busi-Koke/Verratti would be great too.
He was brilliant, so many awesome and intelligent moments with the ball tonight. For a 20m signing he's proving to be a complete and utter bargain. He's world class, I love how he's fitting into the team.
Yeah that annoyed me. The subs should have been Pedro on for Neymar, Alves off for Adriano and Mathieu on for Mascherano. Losing Rakitic made our offensive impact a lot smaller, he helped Messi a lot on the right side.
