Juan Mata v Kevin De Bruyne
Juan Mata
Technique
9
Excellent technique, very rarely does he let the ball get away from him.
Passing
8
A very good passer of the ball with good vision to spot a throughball.
Shooting
6
Other than mobility, shooting is his weakness. While he has the ability to score regularly, he is far too keen to play the pass when the shot is there.
Movement
8
Very good movement, it is just his lack of mobility that stops him being able to get in dangerous positions more often.
Skill
8
Very good skill, though he should use it more to create space.
Juan Mata
Kevin De Bruyne
Technique
9
Excellent technique, he usually gets the ball under his spell immediately.
Passing
9
One of the best passers of the ball in the game right now. He has the ability to spot a pass and then often delivers it with aplomb.
Shooting
9
Has a rocket shot on him from distance and with either foot.
Movement
8
His movement is very good, though he can, at times, get caught getting into the forward's way when he plays behind a striker. In a deeper role his runs are much better.
Skill
8
While he does have the ability to beat a man, it is not really his game.
