I've watched Barella enough times. I don't see a World beater. I see a good midfielder. I'm not shitting on Barrela here. I feel the same way about Kovacic. And I love Kova here.
I'm sure Barela would do well here too. I'd just rather have Wirtz. Who has a better offensive game and processes information quicker. Close to Kevin level processing.
Barrela is not that. He tackles a bit, defends a bit, has a decent pass on him, very combative, can work out of tight spaces when he needs to and scores amazing goals every now and then.
Nothing special for me. Good player though.
