Bayern x Internazionale UCL 10-11 (1st game)

Has no difficulty playing DMF by the right; Falls a lot by the middle while Schweinsteiger moves around.
Very quick to join the D-Line to help with more defensive duties.
Annihilated Sneijder --> Seems to track him around, cuts him off precisely and does not let him move much with the ball/pass the ball around.
Also very aware of Cambiasso and Thiago Motta
Precise diagonal passes, long passing (30m-40m) from the right to activate runs by the left side (Pranjic)
Precise sliding tackles, very good timing
(!!!) Lines up for long shots, very decent power, curling and technique for a DMF.
(!!!) Displays a bit of flair (outside of the boot, quick feet and step-overs)

Does not attack very often
Avoids going up on corners and FKs
Average against aerial threats/Average on jum/hea
Avoids using weak foot, but does it with enough accuracy to deliver short passes (WFA 5, WFF 3)
