  1. Redondo looked good in the game against DC. His grit paid for the first goal and he was involved in the build up for both the others. He needs to improve his speed. However, it seems he has some physical build up issue. His running does not look like a smooth sprint. But we can be hopeful about him. He is learning from the bests in the world Messi, Busquets, Alba and Suarez, who have past their prime but can be great teachers, nonetheless.

  2. Varela, Almada, Paz midfield, Echeverri, Soule and Beltran in attack. We’ve seen Brey in goal, he’s decent. Probably Pellegrino as LCB (he’s a regular at Salernitana now on loan from AC Milan), maybe Vega as a LB? Not sure about RB and RCB.

  3. Midfield and attacks looks good. Only concern is defense and gk.. hope he gets senior players for Olympic in defense..
