Hm to Pinto. Some nice saves, but he could've done better in the goal.

1. Montoya - bombed down the right all game unlucky not to have found an assist.
2. Neymar - tried and tried all he could, took a couple of nice shots that were saved and also missed some big chances.
3. Pinto - made some nice saves but was a bit too easily beaten short side for the only goal.

1. Montoya - ran his proverbial off the whole game, by far the best offensive threat on the right but also often the best Barça defenser on counters
2. Neymar - so he didn't score on a couple of really good chances, but then again why does it feel like we can rely only on him in attack, at least in open play (i.e. excepting Messi's excellent second freekick), over the last week or so?
3. Pinto - yes he could have done more on that goal, yes I still shake every time the ball lands at his feet, but he also makes his fair share of great saves per game

​Copa Final vs Real Madrid

1. Bartra- played well overall, header not a random fluke.
2. Xavi- created best opportunity of game with throughball to Neymar. One of the few players who still knows how to play "Barça style"- *move* receive pass, *move* receive pass. Most fluid and quickest Barça player on the pitch, with most of Barça offering little off the ball.
3. Alba- no complaints, does exactly what he should in attack and defense. Excellent until his injury.

Note to Tata: with Messi doing his imitation of a fencepost, and Neymar trying isolated take-ons on the wing, you can't start Cesc. You need Pedro or Alexis or both to create *ANY* movement up front. Doesn't matter how well you pass it, if the other team knows exactly where every pass is going.
