When people ask me why I want Alberto and an inside forward over Lautaro and Neymar.

This picture perfectly illustrates what I mean. Messi and Iniesta’s ability to break down the opposition through central channels is what made Pep’s Barça so unstoppable, and why deep blocks could not contain that team.

This is why I believe Luis Alberto is the most important signing for Barcelona. He’s precisely that type of player.
