Memphis Depay, devastating for the umpteenth time: He leaves the Champions in white

The FC Barcelona sacked of the maximum competition of clubs to European level with an exert poor and cabizbajo. The ones of Xavi Hernández left what has been the worst presentation of the Catalan group from the season 2000/01, 21 years ago, when they also remained went in phase of groups of Champions. Although there are a lot of focuses of attention in a Barça in renewal, the situation of Memphis Depay​ does unsustainable.

The Dutch attacker contested the six meetings of the previous phase to the eliminatory round, in where it could not annotate neither neither assist, leaving a balance more than poor for the picture culé. The born in Moordrecht, and called to be 'the star of the team', had by enésima time a party for the forget in the European competition, in this occasion in front of the Bayern Munich, in another key meeting for the hopes blaugranas to follow with life in the tournament.

In front of the Benfica in the previous day, the forward had to be decisive and show leadership in the terrain of game, as it was the most important party for the ones of the Camp Nou in the termporada. A victory home in front of the lusos classified them of automatic form to the following phase, but the fault of goal and consistency marked the course of what would be the unavoidable elimination of a FC Barcelona without ideas and without initiative.

The ex Olympique of Lyon began the season with the Barcelona of splendid form, giving results and showing that Ronald Koeman, ex Barcelona trainer, had not made a mistake when bringing him. However, the rhythm of game was waning, the interventions every time did lower and the leadership dispelled entirely. Depay No longer was the same of does some months and the camera no mintió.

The '9' of the Barça added in his six meetings of regular phase in Champions a total of 191 good passes, with an average of 31.83 go through party. Besides, 11 balloons recovered in total, less than two in each meeting. The figure of the 'orange mechanical' has not achieved inside the Catalan square, and a possible signing of a new 'killer' of the area does imminent for the ones of Xavi if they look for to advance with firm step by the Europe League, competition that no conocian in more than two decades.

A Barça desalentador

The group of Catalonia is happening perhaps by one of the worst seasons in his history. Right now they find seventh in the local table, out of European places and more near of the zone of descent that of the pointer, the Real Madrid. An abysmal managerial, bad signings and a style of poor game, have carried of the peak to the abyss to an entity culé that came being protagonist with his 'Tiki-taka 'all over the world.
