Usually this does not have to be a problem at all. If you protect me, other players will be freed. Then it could project less, but what matter if have sufficient good players? Also in the Ajax the opponents treat to move away me of the ball. This is well because like this it is as I see me forced to do something more. Be more intelligent, move me differently, this is only a challenge for me", explained.

It collects the ball and sees to thus'", affirmed that it said him the legend of Holland.
Of Jong could be the relief of Busquets
The player of the Ajax has showed that it can play in any position of the centre of the field. In the group of Have Hag play where Sergio Busquets and against the Madrid showed that it can play here in parties of the highest level.
