Imo the guy is the perfect CB for barca. I can see why lucho wanted him so bad. Tall, fast, nice passes, great tacles. Everything u need.

His only weakness (this is me nitpicking) is clearing and tackles can improve a little too.

Not the best in possession, he panicks and rushes and then loses the ball. But defensively he is a rock.

Yeah, sometimes he tries to pass and ends up giving away the ball in dangerous positions... However, his defending has been pretty good during the whole season...

His bad clearances are mostly due to our style. In most teams, kicking the ball as far away as possible from your own half would be a good clearance. At Barca, you're expected to keep the ball on the ground & pass it to a teammate nearby and I don't think Mathieu was accustomed to that style of play before he came here.

Mathieu: "Return to Valencia on Sunday? I'd accept any welcome. If they whistle, fine. But of course I hope it'll be the opposite."

Why was he subbed again? Fear of a second yellow, I take it? Because, aside from that dumbass early yellow, he had a solid game.
