Denilson's great game

Denilson scored a goal on Saturday, but was still somewhat underrated. However, despite not playing a deadly ball like Cesc Fabregas does, he kept possession well, and made 73 passes, all of which were successful. He also won 6 out of 10 tackles, and also made 3 interceptions.
Denilson gets some criticsim from Arsenal supporters, some deserved, but mostly underserved, and you can see why he's played: not only does he have a nice 30 yard shot, but he keeps the ball well, which was important against 10 men, and will be important in 8 days time against Barcelona.
