It's a foul but he went to ground far too easy
The Nick on his ankle was soft but he went down after that so it’s simulation.

I would have been pissed off if it was against us.
Agree.

Contact? Yeah... maybe some.

Enough to pirouette then hit the ground like you've been shot by a sniper rifle? No.
 
Not sure he's there for the goals / assists. He's there to open up the defensive lines to assist the assister I think. Although it could be that he's just a flop

I do agree with this. I think he was bought to carry the ball and break lines. Pep knows the best sides had them worked out so I think was looking for tactical flexibility. I think he's doing ok for them but his numbers could be way better. Looks like some players might go after this year like Silva so he might find his spot when opens it up for him...still a poor man's Miggy
