Ivan Rakitić

[dakt]

He's the beast. I don't even remember Cesc. 18 million!

 

[Galning]

He is amazing!!

 

[Ini8]

You can't go wrong with Sevilla players.

What a performance.

 

[hardyboy]

That pass from him for the second goal was absolutely sublime..

Quiet but effective as always tonight.

 

[KyletheMuslim]

way better than Cesc, He was so effective

 

[Henry_IB]

Another top performance. His work isn't spectacular or eye-catching but the balance he brings to our midfield and extra support both defensively and offensively are invaluable. The only thing I did not like was how Neymar ran straight past him after scoring pointing towards suarez when rakitic in my opinion was more responsible for the goal.

Who is Cesc again? This guy is a real no nonense midfielder.

Neymar is very young and you are watching the game from the comfort of your couch. These guys are in battle and will miss these types of things. Suarez did set Neymar up so the celebration was also legit. But you are right. Rakitic was the architect behind this goal.

Crakitic! What a performance, our silent multi-tasker, amazing!

He has such an ungratefull job, running up and down, being everywhere, less flashy, but oh so key to our success!

Volim te Rakitic

You can't hold that against Neymar, Suarez was the one who set him up perfectly instead of shooting, it's normal he celebrates with him first, players on the field don't necessaraly see the pre-assisters

Yet another excellent performance. With him and Busquets back in form our midfield has recovered big time.

 

[Obiaseti]

What a buy this guy has been. Clearly we learnt our lessons from the Cesc fiasco. He's had a brilliant first season already.

 

[Frodo_FCB]

We always knew that Rakitic has an immense workrate and always sacrifices himself for the team, but never expected that he will improve so much his technique and his short passes. Now he is a real Barca midfielder..

 

[te amo barca]

His passing technique and dribbling skills have improved so much since he first came. A real gem.
