Daniel Wass - Takes four shots in loss Wass had four shots (one on target) and made two tackles (one won) during Saturday's 4-1 loss against Real Madrid.

Impact Wass was one of his side's few positives on the offensive end, pacing Valencia in shots attempted, one of them being a long-range rocket that was amazingly saved by the opposing goalkeeper during the second half. The midfielder's last goal came in August but he's trying his best to end this drought, with nine shots over his last three appearances. Up next for Wass is Jan. 19 home match against Sevilla.

Jose Luis Gaya - Sends in four crosses in loss Gaya (undisclosed) created two chances, sent in four crosses (one accurate) and made three clearances and two blocks during Saturday's 4-1 loss against Real Madrid.

Impact Gaya was back with the team after being left out for the previous match due to an undisclosed issue and had his hands full on defense against an inspired Marco Asensio, but still found room to provide some help on the attacking end. The left-back is one of La Liga's best when fully fit and will hope to be at his best during Jan. 19 home match against Sevilla.

Jasper Cillessen - Concedes four in loss Cillessen made four saves and conceded four goals during Saturday's 4-1 loss against Real Madrid.

Impact Cillessen did everything he could against Madrid's powerful attack, but, after being beaten from the penalty spot right before halftime, the goalkeeper conceded other three goals during the final frame. With nine goals allowed over his last three starts, Cillessen will try to bounce back during Jan. 19 home match against Sevilla.

Goncalo Guedes - Scores, misses PK in loss Guedes scored a goal off three shots (all on target), created one chance and sent in eight crosses (two accurate) during Saturday's 4-1 loss against Real Madrid.

Impact Guedes was a menace on the offensive end, always generating dangerous plays from the flanks. In the 76th minute, the winger had his penalty saved by the goalkeeper, but headed the rebound home to score his side's lone goal. With four goals and one assist over his last four matches, Guedes will try to keep adding to his tally during Jan. 19 home match against Sevilla.

Casemiro - Fills stat sheet, draws PK in win Casemiro had three off-target shots, made three clearances, three interceptions and one block, drew four fouls, including a penalty, and was shown a yellow card during Saturday's 4...

Impact Casemiro had another standout game for Real Madrid, not only shining defensively but also providing some support on the offensive end, which included suffering the penalty that led to his side's first goal right before halftime. The holding midfielder is arguably La Liga's best at his position and will try to keep it up during Jan. 23 home match against Elche.

Marco Asensio - Takes five shots in win Asensio had five shots (two on target), created one chance and drew five fouls during Saturday's 4-1 win over Valencia.

Impact Asensio was very productive on the right flank, pacing his side in shots attempted and being involved in several dangerous plays, which included Real's third goal, scored by Vinicius Junior. The winger looks to be locked up in the starting XI for the upcoming weeks and will try to keep up with the good work during Jan. 23 home match against Elche.
