Ni que decir tiene que Juanin es la estrella de nuestro informe en ingles y que su caso se ha mencionado en los libros sobre el RM y el FCB. Y Sarabia lo mismo: un jugador que tiene a su edad muchos mas recusos de los que tenia Özil al que cuando jugaba en el Schalke 04 lo conociamos por...que se fue al Bremen...y al que le hemos visto jugar vis a vis Muniain y no hay ni color, Iker es mejor

10 Reason's Why Arsenal, Chelsea & Spurs Want Juan Mata

By enigma106  Published: 19th August 2011

Born on the 28th of April 1988 in the city of Oviedo, Juan Manuel Mata started his career in Real Madrid's youth ranks in 2004 before stepping up to Real Madrid Castilla two years later. In his time at Castilla, the left-footed youngster made 35 Liga Adelante appearances and scored 10 goals but that was his last act as a Real Madrid player because Valencia CF snapped him up on a free transfer.

In the Mestalla, Mata has flourished as a player and has been very consistent for the Spanish outfit. In his first season at the club, he made 24 Liga BBVA appearances and scored 5 goals. In his second season in Valencia, he was ever-present for the club and missed only one league match all season long scoring 11 in the process. Mata became a household name in Valencia after the club's biggest assets; David Villa and David Silva were sold out after seasons of courtship from many suitors.

On the International scene, Spain is a country that is blessed with a vast array of talent in midfield so Mata has featured sparingly for the nation but he got his debut against Turkey on the 28th of March, 2009. He has played only 11 games for Spain and has scored four goals but he has featured for the country in all available youth levels with the highest amount of appearances in the Under-21 level.

Mata hasn't won anything at club level but the three medals he amassed have been won in the national team colors of Spain. In 2006, he won the European Under-19 Championships before winning the 2010 World Cup with Spain last summer. He was voted as the MVP in the recently concluded European Under-21 Championships that took place in Scandinavia. Spain also emerged as the winners of that tournament.

Mata has been on the radar of Arsenal Football Club and has been touted as the potential replacement for Arsenal's departing captain, Francesc Fabregas. He has also been linked with Tottenham and more recently Chelsea. Here's my take on the top 10 footballing attributes possessed by Juan Manuel Mata.

Dribbling

Mata is a very skillful player that's never afraid to take on his man and the fact that he's a left footed player makes it extremely difficult for defenders to come up against him because left footers have this knack for an unpredictable style of dribbling. FC Bayern and Holland's Arjen Robben is a classic example of the ideal dribbler. You can't also talk about left-footed dribblers without mentioning the World's best player, Lionel Messi.

Finishing

Judging by Mata's overall statistics in his days in Real Madrid Castilla and Valencia, he has played 168 league games and he has smashed the net 43 times. Bear it in mind that Mata is a player that cuts in from the wings or plays behind the main striker so this goal to game ratio is very good. Even Football Manager gave him a finishing rating of 18/20. You know what that means.

Technique

Juan Mata's has close control and can be a live wire with the ball at his feet. Thee so many things he can do with the ball that would make you admire the beautiful game even more. He also knows how to strike the ball sweetly. Only football "technicians" own such an attribute

Off the Ball movement

When Juan Mata is not with the ball, he's a constant thorn in the flesh of many defenders because his of the ball movement is sleek. From throw-ins to more passes from a teammate, Mata is a player that can be backed upon to make himself available for a pass.

Pace

Standing with a frame of just 1.70m, Juan Mata is in the mold of players that have a low centre of gravity so his feet tend to move quicker than your average Joe and he uses this attribute to his advantage. He' the kind of player that likes a through ball well ahead of him because he can use his pace to good effect.

Passing

Juan Mata can be in the hole behind the striker and can assume the mantle of the attacking playmaker. This is a role that he plays freely and he has an eagle eye for a pass that can tear defenses open like hot knife through butter.

Versatility

This is a very powerful tool that has been an upper hand for many football teams from the days of Nasazzi in the 1930 World Cup. Any team that has a player who's very versatile has a big bonus because the player can be deployed in any of the available positions he's adept in to cover up for the space that has been made by the injured player. Juan Mata is a striker that can play on the left wing. He's also very comfortable playing in the No. 10 and Valencia has benefitted greatly from his versatility.

Flair

Juan Mata's body movement is a class act and he's regarded as one of the most flamboyant wingers in Spain. Villarreal's Santi Cazorla and Manchester City's David Silva also fall into that mold of Spanish flamboyant wingers.

Teamwork

Juan Mata is a very selfless individual that's never afraid to tee another teammate up to take the glory of a goal as well as when he's far up the pitch. He plays with his eyes open because it's already in his nature to feed a teammate when available.

Composure

There are so many strikers in the Planet that have spurned one on one chances because of their lack of composure but Mata is a player that picks his spot when he's closing in on the opponent's goalie. Every lethal finisher in the football World has a high degree of composure attached to their play. Ruud van Nistelrooy, Filippo Inzaghi, Hernan Crespo, Robin van Persie but to name a few. All these strikers have that killer instinct and know where to put the ball before it gets to their feet. It's pleasing to know that Mata is somewhere up in the mix.

Summary

With a player as great as Francesc Fabregas Soler literally out of Arsenal, Mata is the best player to fill in his boots and a bid of at least £25m will be more than enough to seal the deal for the Spanish youngster so the gooners will be keeping their fingers crossed as the days go by. But Chelsea are circling and are thought to be keen, so it could be a straight fight between the two London giants.
