Impact Carreira's season was a tale of two halves, where he emerged as a reliable defensive presence down the stretch, while also accounting for a career-high four assists within his final 15 appearances. With more consistent time on the pitch, he is likely to continue to stand out in his role.

JUNE 11 • ROTOWIRE

He managed an impressive 34 shots and accounted for 21 chances created on the campaign, showing he can do more than just defend. However, his defensive game was even more impressive with 21 tackles won, 34 interceptions and a whopping, career-high 118 clearances.

He did not register any goal contributions, but his 19 chances created could have easily resulted in a few. He also showed a propensity for the cross, averaging over two per match. Looking ahead, if he can build a rhythm, beginning with remaining injury-free, he could certainly emerge as an effective contributor and vie for a more significant role.

JUNE 10 • ROTOWIRE

Vicente Guaita - Poor display in final match Guaita registered no saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 win versus Getafe.

Impact Even though Celta Vigo won their last game of the La Liga season 2-1 against Getafe, Guaita had a nightmare in net. The only shot on target he faced hit the back of the net and was a direct result of an error he made. He also only completed one of his four long ball passes and only had to act as a sweeper keeper once. Saturday's showing was indicative of Guaita's season, as he finished with the second worst save percentage among all keepers in the league with a mark of just 62.8 percent.
