You can be 22 years old, fast, fresh legs, press your opponents but if you don't have vision, technique and the ability to read the game (like Ale did when he ran through 3-4 defenders waiting for Vidal's pass) and the instinct to know how and when to move, the timing of when to fall down and when to slow down the rhythm of the game then you can never be a great striker let alone having number 10.
It's sad that too many, way too many coaches these days rely on fast legs more than anything.. Pirlo once said in his interview football is not about how fast you can run, you have to be athletic it's true but football is about vision and brain. Not the exact words but the same context and meaning!
