He's so comfortable on the ball and grew into the game. In the second half he was excellent. I think it was around the 70 minute mark where he had a period of ten minutes where he was exceptional. He chested a fizzed clearance from Huddersfield to a team mate to instantly control and win possession when under pressure. He offered himself for Bravo and the defenders time and time again. Bravo clapped him at one stage because he'd been so composed on the ball. Like Busquets, he'll offer himself on the edge of the area and will control the ball and find a team mate. He'll play it instantly, or take a touch and he's not afraid to pass forwards which is crucial in that role. His range of passing is excellent.
I'd much rather see him given time than us buying someone in that role, other positions need strengthening first and Garcia looks like he could fit into Pep's starting 11 without an issue. A few tired passes aside he was brilliant. I could see him in that role next to Gundogan no problem, with Gundogan doing more of the box to box work and Aleix pulling the strings from deeper.
