No impact on the game but who's to know what would have happened if Keita was given a start in midfield and Ibi was playing out wide.
Liked some of his runs in the box but the ball never went his way.
I love Keita, really do. But this is the second time in a row that he made no impact. We were supposed to close the game with Villa taken out but quite the opposite happened.

Pep rarely subs those who play below par. Not saying Iniesta played badly, merely noticing Pep was comfortable subbing Villa early (early sub for his standards) only when he made the scoresheet. It was a logical sub though but in the end we failed to kill-off the game. I can't really remember us doing it successfully, it's just not our thing.
i can't help but think pep just played him because of his personality, i mean why wouldn't he play masch instead? although it's easy now in hindsight to be critical
