Low Points

Marquinhos did not have much to do in the 2014-15 and 2015-16 season. The duo of Silva and Luiz were in great touch thus providing limited opportunities to Marcos. There were speculations that the defender might leave the club in the following season.

But the new manager Unai Emery sold Luiz back to Chelsea and Marquinhos got more opportunities after that.
