Jordi Alba

[BibB]

I think he also screwed up in their goal and committed recklessly allowing opposition a free cross...

I thought he slipped to be honest rather than actually screwing up.

 

[DonAK]

Some one teach this man how to cross.

Amen.

So many potential great chances going to waste because he smacks the ball right into the defender every single fucking time

 

[Luftstalag14]

He didn't get injured in the end, did he?

 

[Kuchi]

Nope..he walked it off

 

[El Flaco]

Jordi Alba on Real Madrid being eliminated from Copa Del Rey: "Sometimes a team loses a Copa tie and suddenly the competition is downplayed. It's not a good excuse to say that the Copa has no merit. As a Cule, I always want Real Madrid to lose."

 

[Deco 20]

Singlehandedly saved a goal with that block after Torres played a player clean through

 

[DonAK]

He's been very impressive defensively this season. Still crap at crosses/passes in the final third. If he could improve that, he could be unstoppable.

 

[evilhita666]

He was absolutely dismal today...

 

[El Flaco]

Was really poor against PSG tonight.

 

[Potroh]

Was really poor against PSG tonight.

The second goal was his fault, but he wasn't the worst.

 

[reaper]

Was poor, but he is not designed to play as a deep full back - no Barca fullback is.

I thought he had a solid game as a LCB. Seems like we can probably get away with sliding a Fullback at CB in some games if needed. Kinda like how Conte uses Cesar Azpilicueta as a RCB, despite being a Fullback himself.

 

[Barcaman]

It's because he's only lcb when we have the ball. Without it Busquets drops deep and Mascherano and Alba are full backs.

 

[Messi983]

Lucho already doing Sampaoli a favour with adapting Alba and Digne playing as LCB in 3-man back?
