Andres Iniesta
Iniesta was very good this season, though he was probably short of his inspiring best. Never a goalscorer, nonetheless, his haul was particularly low. On the other hand, he was key in big games, with an assist in the Champions League quarters and a penalty won in El Clasico some of the highlights.
Grade: B+
Cesc Fabregas
An interesting case, as statistically he produced. Playing sometimes as a forward, his 13 goals were fourth on the team. Still, the complaints about him were the same as always: lack of consistency and positional discipline. The player and the team seemed happy enough to part ways.
Grade: C+
Sergi Roberto
Unfairly given the role of "Thiago substitute", Roberto was pretty unspectacular last season. Like Martin Montoya, his stock fell somewhat as he went from a promising prospect to a role player with responsibility in the squad. And again like Montoya, this coming season is pivotal. He could carve out a decent role as a squad player.
Grade: C+
Ibrahim Afellay
Afellay just doesn't have any luck with injuries, it seems. He didn't play much.
No grade
