Busquets hadn't heard anyone talk to him like this for a while.
Back in Barcelona's youth training, despite his lack of speed, he used to play as a winger. Later, he was appreciated by Guardiola to play midfield and, with Messi's support, he became a key player in the team.
If it weren't for Chen Zhong, undoubtedly, he would have been Barcelona's most suitable defensive midfielder.
Although he's not fast, slow in tracking back, mediocre at intercepting on the wing, average with high balls, average at turning...
But his quick ability to wash the ball, ability to release the ball, and central interception ability, as well as his praised football intelligence, Chen Zhong can perform better than him.
Chen Zhong has superior physical qualities, more aggressive coverage ability, better ball protection and ball-washing ability, combined with decent short and long passing ability, completely covering Busquets' strengths, without possessing his weaknesses.
