Sergiño Dest

Great match

 

[evilhita666]

Agreed, the guy has improved a looot!

 

[Horatio]

seems like his trying less to contribute in offense though and focusing more on defending well. How many balls did he put in area today?

 

[fergus90]

Another top game from him

 

[Gnidrologist]

One of the best today among other great performers.

 

[ronniecro]

keeps on improving,i guess having xavi and alves around helps a lot

Everything is going right these last 3 games. I don't want to go too overboard on anyone. But Dest looks like he belongs in this Xavi side finally.

Seems like a few of the squad (Frenkie, Dest) have had an aha moment and finally got what Xavi wanted of them.

 

[Rassvet]

Not the finished article but I like the look of him at leftback.

American Joao Cancelo

True, he improved massively on defense and linking with other players outside of opponent penalty area. But his offensive end product is terrible.
He needs to find a way to contribute better in attack to be a long term starter, but if he finds it with current improvement he will be a very good starting fullback for us.

Would be grand if he keeps it up and we don't have to sign Gaya or fecking Grimaldo.

Yeah dunno...but with his last 3 games where he "played well" I barely remember seeing him at opposite end of pitch placing passes in opponents area.

But I do really value his defense improved. That might be more important in this Barca.

Keep it up, dude. Massive improvement in passing & dribbling, focus, and energy levels. Hard to contribute in offense with an end product when the winger takes the line and doesn't cut inside to clear a lane for overlapping.

Spot on. Saved us on defense probably like five times. Good game.

True. Saved 20-40mil would be great.

It's obvious Koeman didn't have a clue how to train defense. Turned into a completely different full back. Xavi the man
