Well one thing for sure: Kalou's inability to head the ball in front of goal is far more concerning to me than Mata's left foot dependence...

Kalou's inability to do anything other than run like a headless chicken is far more concerning. Mata's inability with his right foot is annoying at times, but he makes up for it with everything else.

Wasn't in the game at all today but as we were ultra defensive he was never gonna be really. He is too small tho, does need to bulk up a bit or a lot... had a very poor game today tho.

I don't mind that he is only 5 ft 7 but he should bulk up so he can shrug players off him when hes on the ball more often, as teams are trying to kick and push him out of the game. It was very hard for him to influence the game tonight as well but still everyone who played, deserves some sort of credit, for the collective performance.

Don't think he had a poor game. It's just the entire game plan of sitting back & hitting Barca with a quick direct counter attacking approach doesn't suit him. Not sure if he should start at the Camp Nou next week either.

Mata now has 12 goals and 18 assists in all competitions this season, which is more than David Silva - 8 goals & 17 assists.

Amazing stats & to think that Silva got a head start this season, because Mata missed the first two weeks of the season. Still there are many people, including people on this board that think Silva is better than Mata. IMHO Mata is better on set pieces & he is still a young lad. He will develop his game even more. What Robbie D needs to do, is to employ Mr. Gianfranco Zola as a Creative Midfield coach & assist Mata to take his game to a Super Saiyan level. I am sure Mr. Abramovich will approve this transaction, cause he did try to get Zola back to the club when he left. All of CFC would approve of this move ;) This move will help Marin & Kakuta as well.
