Marko Dmitrovic - Two saves, allows two goals Dmitrovic had two saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Celta Vigo.

Impact It's hard to blame Dmitrovic for the two goals he conceded -- both were tap-ins from very close range where he couldn't do much. Dmitrovic will have a tough matchup at Atletico Madrid on Saturday, Feb. 21, a game that shouldn't carry a ton of upside for the veteran goalkeeper.

Kike Garcia - Scores impressive goal Kike scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Celta Vigo.

Impact Kike bagged an impressive goal in this contest, evening the score early in the second half in a sequence he fabricated on his own. After a rebound on the edge of the box, the striker hustled his way into position before unleashing an unstoppable shot past Andrei Radu. This was Kike's fourth goal of the season -- a decent output considering he's started in only eight of his 23 league outings this term.

Fernando Calero - Not training Friday Calero (undisclosed) wasn't spotted in team training Friday and is a doubt for Saturday's clash against Celta Vigo, according to El 1900.

Impact Calero was pulled at halftime last match for undisclosed reasons and was not seen in training Friday, one day ahead of Saturday's showdown with Celta Vigo. The defender appears to be dealing with some discomfort and is now a real question mark for the clash with the Celeste. If he is ruled out, Clemens Riedel is in line to step into the starting XI and hold down the spot until Calero is cleared to return.

Jose Salinas - Unfortunate own-goal Salinas had an own goal, one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Monday's 4-1 loss to Villarreal. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 6th minute.

Impact Salinas was in a starting role Monday for his first appearance in five games, only his second start in nine appearances. However, it would go far from planned, allowing four goals while scoring an own-goal for himself, a day to forget altogether. He should drop back to the bench moving forward, more of a rotational player.

Tyrhys Dolan - Whips in four crosses Dolan had one shot (zero on goal) and four crosses (one accurate) in Monday's 4-1 loss versus Villarreal.

Impact Dolan was back in the starting XI Monday after two games from the bench, playing 59 minutes in the loss. He would record a decent four crosses in the outing, his most in three appearances. He remains with three assists this season but no goals in 22 appearances, hoping for his first soon.

FEBRUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Cyril Ngonge - Records assist Ngonge assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Monday's 4-1 loss versus Villarreal.

Impact Ngonge was only asked to play from the bench Monday and came on for 31 minutes, a solid spell from the bench. He would find Leandro Cabrera via a cross in the 88th minute for an assist, the club's lone goal of the match. This is only his second goal contribution of the season, scoring a goal in their third game of the season.

Leandro Cabrera - Nets Kate consolation goal Cabrera scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Monday's 4-1 defeat against Villarreal.

Impact Cabrera would earn a goal Monday but only in the dying minutes of the match, scoring just ahead of injury time. This is his first goal in six games, now up to three on the season in 22 appearances. The defender also recorded four tackles and three clearances, although the four goals allowed tarnished his day in the defense.

FEBRUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Marko Dmitrovic - Allows four against Villarreal Dmitrovic had no saves and allowed four goals in Monday's 4-1 defeat versus Villarreal.

Impact Dmitrovic would have a rough night in net Monday, with the goalie allowing four goals and not making a single save, even though one goal was from his own teammate. That said, he has now gone seven straight games with no clean sheet, a rough spell for the keeper. He will hope to pick up his eighth of the season next time out, although that could be difficult against a Celta Vigo squad.

Ramon Terrats - Available again Terrats is an option for upcoming fixtures after being left out of Monday's clash with Villarreal due to a loan lock.

Impact Terrats will rejoin the team for the remaining league games, hoping to add to his totals of five shots, 16 crosses and one goal in 15 appearances this season. The versatile player made a couple of starts on the left wing before the match against Villarreal, so he could be a solid rival to Tyrhys Dolan in that position but might not record full 90 minutes in many games.

Carlos Romero - Eligible going forward Romero is back in contention to play in future matchups following his absence against his parent club Villarreal.

Impact Romero has been a regular presence in his team's lineup during the current season, missing only the two clashes with Villarreal because of his loan contract, so he may now be selected over Jose Salinas for the rest of the campaign. Despite featuring in the back line, Romero is currently tied as his team's second-best offensive contributor with a combination of four goals and two assists, and he's also reliable for his averages of 5.0 balls recovered and 3.1 tackles per game.

Impact Terrats is set to play his parent club Monday and actually won't play, as he is loan-locked for the outing.
