#5 Barcelona is still waiting on Paco Alcacer
Paco Alcacer must have arrived at the Camp Nou with dreams of scoring big on the biggest of stages in world football when he moved from Valencia at the start of this season. However, that particular eventuality has yet to materialise with him struggling to find his best form at the club. In fact, last night’s game was the first time he started with Lionel Messi after all these months in the Spaniard failed to impress yet again.
While his teammates enjoyed the bulk of possession, passing the ball around like they were the only team on the pitch, Alcacer himself was rarely significantly involved. His biggest contribution of the night was his assist for Turan’s third goal but that was pretty much it from the former Valencia player.
