Pedri hasn't been too bad. Ferran Torres should have done better with that amazing pass.

Eric Garcia has looked very average so far. Diego Llorente being a disaster isn't helping either tbf.

He's usually like that when I watch him. Clean on the ball, but never steps up the way Araujo does. Very mediocre.

Pedri had a slower start, but was one of the better players later. Not that the others are making it hard.

Pedri got a bad habit of starting games really poorly and sloppy. Needs to improve on that as does for Barca as well a lot.

Looks Spain best player on ball after first 15 mins and the pass to Torres that he fucked up was about only top quality moment of half.

Lucho midfield set up has him posted left of a three and has to wait for ball to get into his area. Same shitty midfield saw too often at Barca but worked when full backs are Alba/Alves and front three MSN.

So, basically Spanish Lenglet give or take?

That's my issue with Lucho, or my doubt better said. His football was pretty ordinary if you take away the huge individual quality of that team. Not really a very good tactician, but knew how to handle the locker-room because he probably has a top personality and mentality.

Garcia doesn't look imposing at all. That physique would be okay for a right-back, but he will be bullied by any semi-strong CF unless he puts on some muscles.

I'd take Lenglet over him every day of the week. Really don't see what he'll bring to the team except his supposed leadership (which I haven't seen yet) and being good on the ball. But I'm getting tired of all those ball-playing CBs, we need some guys who can actually defend in first place.

Garcia has not been bad or looked weak at all so far to me. Playing quite well.

Spain just fuck about on ball until gets to a full back/winger combo to try and find Morata then between them lose it.

Morata has been awful. Cant control or pass the ball.

Ramos, Thiago, Olmo and Canales/Oyarzabal need to come on soon if they want a comeback. They could also use Gerard Moreno but I think he's not in the squad.

Olmo on for Gil, I'd rather take off Ferran.

Also Inigo Martinez for Llorente.
