Why Jordi Alba is one of the most important players of the Barcelona?

In a so big team like the FC Barcelona are used to to stand out always the big offensive stars, big goleadores as they are it Leo Messi or Luis Suárez. Footballers so spectacular like Ousmane Dembélé or so effective like Ivan Rakitic also have his gap between the most valued. However, the sides sometimes happen more unobserved.

But that is not the case of Jordi Alba. The Catalan, that recently renewed his agreement with the FC Barcelona, is probably in the best moment of form of his career to his 30 recently fulfilled years. Since it left Neymar, that hoarded all the leadership of the left band, the one of L'Hospitalet has happened to have a secondary role to one of indispensable.

It is necessary to remember that, in the stage of Luis Enrique, Jordi Alba was used to to be the sacrificed in the alignments when the Asturian bet for playing with three defences. But with Ernesto Valverde and without Neymar, everything changed. The Catalan became a basic piece no only of the defence, but also of the attack by his continuous offensive projections.

To day of today, Jordi Alba has turned into one of the best partners of Leo Messi in the offensive plot and already is usual to see like the Argentinian looks for to combine with him, expecting his assistances or taking advantage of his continuous desmarques hit to the band. There is not split where do not look for , neither neither in the the one who the one of L'Hospitalet do not intimidate in attack.

Jordi Alba already has participated in ten goals

The feelings that produces to see play to Jordi Alba go of the hand with his numbers, that do to seem lie that label him like defence simply for splitting from the left side. With the so much against the Real Sociedad, the Catalan already has marked two this season, something that adds to his eight assistances.

All this means that Jordi Alba already has participated in 10 goals this season, something that moves away of the common for a footballer of his position. Besides, the fact that it was the only left side of the staff, still gives him more exclusivity. By all this, are speaking of one of the most important players of the Barça, of these that any barcelonista thinks: "that no pille a cold".
