He Lost too many balls and could not pass ffs! He has not been up to his 100% lately!
Fatigue partly explains Busquest recent form, so are all othe other players on the field. Xavi is older than this guy but probably did twice the running Busquets did.
Busquets has 3 major problems:
1. Can be potentially a lazy and passive player. He just stands there and waits for the pass. Is not as mobile as Xavi.
2. Default behavior is to go backward when he runs into the slightest resistance. This is very predictable. Watch him closely. He almost never tries for thrust forward regardless of where he is on the field.
3. Too weak and dives alot. His role requires more balls.
Otherwise, he is OK. Nothing special.
