Not today though, as the 21 year-old bossed the midfield, leading Italy on a merry dance and producing three top drawer goals to ensure an emphatic victory. And, as captain of Spain's European U-21 Championship team, his brilliance again exploded into football's consciousness with a phenomenal hat-trick today to seal his side's spot in the final.Ī combination of power, finesse, athleticism and skill, Saul's versatility - he's been spotted leading the line for Atleti, out on the flanks, in the centre of midfield and roaming the backline - often keeps him firmly under the radar when the plaudits are being handed out. He is Saul Niguez - the diminutive midfielder with a Formula One engine and the versatility to play almost anywhere on the pitch. He's not Koke, Griezman, Carrasco or Godin. Then he produces a moment of individual brilliance to single-handedly win a match and you suddenly understand why Barcelona is reportedly willing to shell out $80 million to trigger his release clause. In an Atletico Madrid team stacked with headliners, it's easy to forget about him. And I for one can’t wait for more episodes that will show us just how James McGill eventually turned into Saul Goodman and ended up involved with Walter White.WATCH Germany v Spain in the UEFA European U-21 Championship LIVE on beIN SPORTS It’s things like that that make you remember this is not a stand-alone show. This includes an attempt to gain a client that nearly gets him killed, some questionable activities during an embezzlement case, specializing in elder law by accident and getting acquainted with a parking attendant called Mike Ehrmantraut (Jonathan Banks). While trying to balance these two sides of his personality, he goes through quite a lot. You’d end up with a well-written and awesomely acted show about a lawyer who’s torn between being really good at doing the right thing and being really good at being the charming, fraudulent sleazebag that he was growing up. Just imagine for a second that Better Call Saul doesn’t have any links to Breaking Bad. Is all this about to change when he accidentally stumbles upon the biggest case of his career? Well, we kinda know where he ends up eventually, but it’s still every bit as riveting to watch. When he’s not doing that, he’s trying to make a name for himself as a public defense attorney who works out of the back of a nail salon. Instead, McGill spends his days taking care of his brother, who has become housebound after developing a sudden sensitivity to electricity. He wants nothing more than to become than to become every bit as successful as his brother Chuck (Michael McKean), a once brilliant lawyer. Except in this prequel, Saul Goodman still goes by his given name, James McGill. It’s every criminal’s favorite sleazy lawyer, Saul Goodman (brilliantly played by Bob Odenkirk). We all know the Saul the title refers to. Who knows, NCIS Mars could be next… they did find water there, right? Surely, they’ll need a Naval Criminal Investigative Service at some point!īetter Call Saul on the other hand is really good.
Think NCIS, NCIS Los Angeles and NCIS New Orleans. Of course, it’s never as good as the original, but the network can be reasonably sure that the show will already have a following before the first episode even aired. Normally, spin-offs are an easy way to cash in on a show’s success by making something similar to the original. It’s a spin-off, but not one like we’re used to seeing.
And what he came up with was Better Call Saul.

Where to go after you created one of the best – if not the best – TV show ever made? That’s a question Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan must have spent quite some time pondering about.
