#3 Arturo Vidal

Ad
FC Barcelona v Boca Juniors - Joan Gamper Trophy

Arturo Vidal’s much-anticipated arrival at Barcelona was welcomed and keenly awaited by many Barcelona fans. Vidal’s presence will add a lot of sting in the Barcelona midfield. The 31-year-old will be the heart of the midfield and it will be interesting to see how he combines with the likes of Ivan Rakitic and Rafinha in the midfield. Vidal’s presence will also be crucial for the forward line and his coordination with Messi and Suarez will be critical.

Vidal is a player who can also be used as an attacking midfielder as the Chilean has looked sharp both offensively as well as defensively. Vidal could score only 6 goals in 22 games in the last season for Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, but the former Juventus player can outsmart any opposition with his intelligent moves and clever passes.

He has also showcased his ability to score with his electric pace and brilliant counter-attacks. Vidal has the knack of creating chances inside the box for the forwards and can be a tricky customer because of his ability to move into goalscoring positions. Vidal’s form will surely shape Barcelona’s chances in the ongoing season.
