Worst Classico that I've seen him play. Arguably one of his worst performance in a Barca shirt. The guy is 29 but looks like he is 34. Pace was never one of his strengths but he Seems to have aged rapidly. Modric on the other hand looks like he could at least play another season or two at a very high level.

Everything about this guy screams.

Him being comfortable and knowing he can get away with having shambolic performances because he knows he won't get benched. It's the same with Alba, except Alba did get benched for a short time due to the 3-3-1-3 and he raised hell about it due to it.

They can get away with it because we have no one that can bench them. I'm hoping if Roberto stays he can do it.

He was benched last season for Gomes, maybe Lucho was onto something with that unpopular move but we all know that didn't work.

Lucho was benching him and Alba.

Both should have been replaced if possible.

Although he was playing Gomes as well so not all going in right direction.

It seems as though Lucho had the foresight to see these two were past it. He had to try Gomes but then stuck with him far too long. Only problem is we really had no other options and unfortunately we still are in the same spot bar Paulihno. At this point I'm excited to see what he can bring to the table. Can't be much worse than what we have now.
