Messi and Cesc is a great duo but Messi and Alexis are starting to really click. There is going to be a point of understanding between those two that once it hits the apex, there will be virtually no strategy to compete with it. Two freestyle players like them with a great understanding of each other?! It will be glorious. Period.

What this video doesn't show (alright vid btw) is also how Alexis works when Messi and Pedro play in 3. Messi drops infield 5 yards and wingers push high up against the fullback. This then creates more room for Messi, the secondary Movement that takes place in other moves is when Messi drops infield 10 or 15 yards and it pulls CB towards him, Alexis and Pedro then curl round fullbacks so through pass is on. Great movement.

This was a great analysis. You'll make a great coach.

@barca4ever992 pedro came when there was no competition on the bench it was 3 clear options villa pedro messi bojan now pedro is out of the picture unless messi alexis or villa r injured or they need rest

[barca4ever992]

@FCBNumber10 pedro sux every position so dont give me pedro crap hes on the bench everytime alexis is available im not chilean but i never lliked pedro coz he dont make the difference pedro became starting 11 when we had sucky players like bojan u know no much options now when there is real players hes on the bench when bale or neymar comes next summer pedro will play copa del rey games lol

[barca4ever992]

@davidherrerar yeah man ur absolutely right im barca fan i never ever liked pedro hes just average u know hes like cuenca but with more experience pedro is OK play not so good and with alexis around he will sit always on the bench thats prove it all im not chilean but i like alexis he runs alot and hes good in 1v1 his physiq is amazing plus hes getting better each match amazing progress i hope he dont get injured alot like at start of the season

[barca4ever992]

omg dont even mention pedro hes like cuenca average player im not chilean but alexis is rly good better than villa and pedro they both sat on the bench when he came and no one brakes offside better than alexis his one of the top 3 fastest players in la liga so its easy 2 brake offside for him plus he can take defenders on i wish guardiola always give him much freedom in the pitch like last game vs valencia he was amazing 2 bad he didnt score

[davidherrerar]

@FCBNumber10 I see your point,but I would rather pick Alexis over Pedro, he gives Barca a different dimension,Pedro is less vertical and explosive than Alexis, you always haveMessi and Iniesta giving depthto the game,whileevery otherplayer just passes the ball around,Alexis helps to give Barcamore depth he is alwayslooking to make runs,instead of justholding his positionso he can pass it around. Healso creates a lot of spacefor Messi or simply space for a through ball to someoneelse

[dankiller90]

at last somebody recognize alexis' hard work without the ball. Im chilean and when I watch Barca's matches Im always looking at him. His speed and strength are unique, he can do the same of messi, passing defenders & getting all the fame, but his humble and he loves the game so he takes the hard work,like no one else can.he makes a big collaboration to messi and Barca, I guess that's why Pep stated 'he stole my heart'
