FC Barcelona v Paris Saint-Germain - UEFA Champions League Round of 16: Second Leg
Sergi Roberto has always been the player who has never received the limelight he truly deserves. Apart from that one goal vs Paris Saint-Germain, nobody really notices his contribution on the pitch for Barcelona.

The Spaniard is a highly versatile player who can play in any position he is asked to. He has played as a midfielder and a right-back in recent seasons and can even be an attacking option too – the PSG game is the best example once again.
This season, he has been decent for Barcelona once again but nobody seems to be talking about how good he has been. Rated at 84 in FIFA 19, EA Sports should have given him an upgrade in the FIFA 19 Winter Upgrades.
A push to 85 at least would have justified his performances on the pitch.
