Barcelona player ratings vs Alaves: Lamine Yamal’s back with a bang! Spaniard recovers from Stamford Bridge shocker to produce creative masterclass & send Hansi Flick’s troops top of the pile

Jules Kounde (6/10):

Brought on at half time for Eric Garcia, the Frenchman almost registered an assist but Olmo was unable to convert from his dangerous cross.

Andreas Christensen (N/A):

A late substitute, the centre-back was unable to make enough of an impact.

Pedri (7/10):

In his first appearance since last month’s El Clasico, the midfielder showed no signs of rustiness, setting up Yamal who went close with a long-range effort.

Ferran Torres (6/10):

A second-half substitute, the former Manchester City man received little service despite Barcelona controlling possession.

Marcus Rashford (6/10):

Replacing Marc Bernal for the second half, the forward was lively, twisting and teasing his way past Alaves’ Otto on a number of occasions.

Hansi Flick (6/10):

With the scoreline tight, the German was proactive with his substitutions, watching on as Pedri impressed following his return from injury.
