And a year later, we have Dean Howson out of the...
World Cup squad and Pau Covarsi he's been hailed as one of the best performers of the Spain team I think that his profile in Spain has rocketed after this World Cup because his sort of performances have been really really good and yeah I want to make him and shout his name because I think that he deserves we speak a lot and deservedly so about Laminia Mal and what he's doing at this age at this big stage but Pau Covarsi is just the same age
and playing in a more cerebral position, but being really good at it.
I think that he deserves some praise as well.
Exactly, yeah, that's basically the good summary.
I think that Spain got the feeling of being back, finally.
Yeah, the draw against Caipira left the players with desire to respond, and I think that they did, that helped.
by the tactical tweaks that Luis de la Fuente made, which in my opinion, they were quite clear and quite obvious what went wrong against Kai Berde.
But he addressed it and it worked out.
I think that Spain were really the better team and possibly something of a version that we were expecting before the World Cup and that we did not see in the opening game.
Was the biggest tactical tweak putting Lamin Yamal in the starting line-up again?
I think that this is one of them.
But the biggest tactical tweak, in my opinion, was one, just to bring a bit more of wide threat.
And in that department, Laminia Mali is the best in class.
And then I think that putting Pedri in his best position was handy as well.
Because there's been a lot of talks around the Spain camp over who should De La Fuente build his midfield position.
around and basically this game has confirmed that he wants to give the keys to midfield to Pedri and he benched Fabian Ruiz at the expense of that and putting Dani Olmo as the number 10 is the better tactical fit in my opinion and then yeah Lamin Yamal on the right flank Alex Vaina which is more of a winger and Pedro Porro is also more of a wing back and I think that this gave Spain like another another that I mentioned but it's out of the question now that there's no most
irreplaceable player in that Spain squad than Laminia Mal.
Yeah, he was asked that in the mid-zone because he was one of the guys to come in the post-game mid-zone.
And he said, look, well, and the question was like, you didn't touch the ball in your debut for 30 minutes.
