A shout-out to one of the most underrated performances in recent history. In a game where Cr7's bicycle kick took the headlines, what went under the radar was an absolute masterclass from a

Isco Alarcon vs Juventus Away (03/04/2018) 1080i via @YouTube
a player whos start was (as always) questioned by our fan base&he responded with an absolute masterclass.A sublime assist in the opening minutes that changed the complexion of the game, a passing accuracy of 100%(yes u heard that right).Imagine the fuss we'd made if it was kroos
ppl say that hes inconsistent,but the one thing inconsistent is his lack of playing time and continuity. And Everytime he has a less than spectacular game,we are quick to jump on the inconsistent bandwagon,when the reality is he is human (just like most other players we praise)
the fact is that he's had to fight back for his place (yet again) and has been our best player in 2020. By now it should appear to be blatantly obvious that if we give him a decent run of form,he WILL always repay this confidence in performances (as has always been the case)
Ppl forget how important he is simply in the manner in which he transforms the way the team plays, by being that presence in between the line, who is constantly moving to be a constant outlet,who is creative,who works hard, presses when required & is so brilliant at just holding
the ball and being press resistant. In fact, how many attacking midfielders in the world will u find who has a 90% passing accuracy? I guarantee u, there are none..KDB is around 82% just to give u some perspective. Isco is also a clutch player& he has been with real Madrid&malaga
And it's time to appreciate what this absolute wizard brings to the team. The fact is, even with the injuries with hazard and co,I would say our season is alive (once it begins) thanks to this Andalusian magician
