Ronald Koeman is under increasing pressure as head coach of Barcelona after another league game without a win at the weekend, this time drawing 1-1 with Alaves.
Lionel Messi (8.8) didn't record a goal or an assist in the game, but he still ran the show, with 107 touches and a huge 50 passes sent into the final third.
Despite putting in an overall disappointing outing against Alaves, Barca still have three players in our Team of the Week, with Gerard Pique (8.0) and Sergi Roberto (7.7) joining Messi in the XI.
