Fernando Pacheco - Struggles vs. Valencia Pacheco made one saves during Friday's 3-0 defeat to Valencia.
Impact Pacheco was completely out-matched and left out to dry vs. Valencia. The keeper faced four shots and made one saves. It's been a tough start to the season for Pachecho and it isn't likely to get any easier after the international break.

Javi Lopez - Makes rare start Lopez started and played 90 minutes during Friday's 3-0 defeat to Valencia.
Impact Lopez made his first start of the campaign matching his tally from each of the last three seasons. The defender is unlikely to maintain this spot in the starting XI, though he had plenty of touches. He faces a trip away to Villarreal after the international break.

John Guidetti - Two shots in rare start Guidetti shot twice (once on goal) during Friday's 3-0 defeat to Valencia.
Impact Guidetti got his first start of the season, matching his tally from 2019 and 2020. It appears that he will play more of a role both off the bench and in the starting XI, but he's shown no knack for scoring consistently. Next up is the international break.

Giorgi Mamardashvili - Simple clean sheet Mamardashvili made two saves during Friday's 3-0 win over Alaves.
Impact Mamardashvili has made the starting job his own truly, conceding only once heading into the first international break. The keeper has been excellent and will look to hold onto the starting job after the break.

Jose Luis Gaya - Four crosses in win Gaya sent in four crosses (two accurate) during Friday's 3-0 win over Alaves.
Impact Gaya got forward well and had plenty of volume, but failed to get much done during Friday's win. The defender is a premier option coming off of a one goal, seven assist season in the 20/21 season. Next up is the international break where he will hope to maintain this form.
