1. Messi - that patience on the first goal was out of this world. 99% of people would of shot it right away, not Messi. Poker performance today with 4 of a kind on the board.
2. Xavi - he put on his sheriff's badge today and marshaled the midfield with authority. Sprayed more passes around than a supersoaker.
3. Dani Alves - dynamite one again today, provided endless attacking options on the right, dozens of crosses, a fine assist to Pedro showing unreal unselfishness.

Once Osasuna was down to 10 men, Alves was guaranteed an even more attacking role than normal.
