Of course, to measure that advanced the stage of the Asturian his performance was falling, but arrived another change of the hand of Valverde.

And it is that, although it sound to commonplace, Rakitic does it everything well: it is inflando to steal balloons, saves the line like any and thanks to the collective effort allows the luxury of aventurarse to the attack. His numbers do not stop to grow, because it also is an asiduo of goals and assistances. It carries 29 and 27 since it arrived. All what ask him does it, and all does it well.
