Jean-Clair Todibo shines brightest for Barcelona at Huesca

A goalless draw for Barcelona against the league’s bottom club will be viewed in many quarters as an experiment that went badly wrong.

It brings us back to the tired old argument about Ernesto Valverde’s rotation again but, frankly, that’s getting a little tiresome and boring.

ufe0f Valverde: "Todibo, Riqui Puig and Moussa Wagué have gone from less to more. At first, they were the normal ones, but I think they had a good game today. We have to be happy."

The match against Huesca was the perfect opportunity for the coach to mix and match in defence, midfield and attack, and perhaps the only surprise was that he started with Marc-Andre ter Stegen in goal rather than Jasper Cillessen.
