If he gets some rest he will be in best shape for the CL and hopefully World Cup.

He is on top form, now he needs to manage that.

I hope he gets rested sunday. Those Espanyol thugs will look to injure him even more. Also his pass probably wont be an assist since the keeper got a hand to it. Shows how misleading assists are.

Yeah, i noticed it, its bullshit though because its absolutely an assists even if the keeper slightly deflects it.

Anyway, he's playing well even with such little space.

Why on god's earth was he playing so deep against Valencia? Half the time he picked up the ball he had Rakitic or Busi standing right next to him. Two players standing right next to eachother occupying the same space and of course one less forward pass option. Rakitic and Busi can distribute the ball on their own. It's painful to watch. He's so much more valuable for us when he picks up the ball behind the opponents midfield line instead of in front of it.
