Xavi Simons

He is getting better but there were times he was on the break and nobody ahead of him
Yeah, They were mentioning it on commentary too. He was trying to make things happen and could tell he wanted more from others around him.

Did you see when one of the CBs had the ball Xavi was shouting at Palinha to go and get it because Palinha was wandering out to the right hand side! You could see him thinking "How am I gonna get on the ball if he doesn't even want to take the ball from the CBs!?"

No missed that!
And I guess then this is also the problem with some of our players having a better footballing brain along with technique than others.

If they are not on same level then another reason our attacks break down. Along with that and tinkle poor finishing
 
I like that he wants to battle to win the ball.
Also there was one incident in the second half where he gave the ball away (or rather it was taken off him) and he bust a gut to try to win it back.
Not sure why he was taken off tbh as he was running our game.
