37 Goals. 20 assists. Scored in a clasico, Scored in both Sevilla games, Scored in the PSG comeback when he needed to, Scored in both Semi Final legs against Atletico Madrid. As 1 part of a 3 part partnership. I'd say it was anything but mediocre. 

Ok. I just seem to remember him being bad for some reason, a brain fart I guess. I still think Barca need to sign players for every line if they hope to remain competitive next season.

You're right there.

Their midfield is dead. 
Their fullback areas are dead. 
They have a decent CB (Pique) and a great one (Umtiti) 

And their attack is great on their on the ball. But to transition from their defence to midfield, winning the battle in midfield and getting the ball to their attackers is the main problem, everything after that point is fine.
