His best position at Barcelona

Alexander Hleb is one of the most gifted footballers. He was not the kind of midfielder who'll get you goals but was deemed as one of the best playmakers none the less.

He was one of the best dribblers at his peak but that was something Messi was anyway doing at the club. They did not need the former Arsenal man to so it and so he was benched for most of the season.

He made loaned out to VfB Stuttgart the next season, then to Birmingham City and then to Wolfsburg before he was eventually sold to Russia side, Krylia Sovetov Samara. The trajectory of his career might have been way different had he stayed at Arsenal.
