Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona is suffering in all the fields. It is not only the institutional situation, the debts, the limit salarial, the subject trainer... The crisis of the Barça also is sportive and physical, because the quantity of injuries that has the team is, as little, alarming. They are too many the players that are in the infirmary in the previous of the transcendental party in front of the Dynamo of Kiev, this Tuesday to the 21:00 hours (in Spain), in which the Barcelona are forced to add the three points for 'dream' with the pass to the eighth of final of the UEFA Champions League.

The Barça travels to Kiev in pictures and depending, practically, of players that in normal conditions would not aim to headlines in a party of such magnitude. It is the case of Clément Lenglet or Philippe Coutinho, those who will fill the 'empty' of his mates in the alignment that will take out Sergi Barjuan in the Olympic Stadium of Kiev. In the case of the central French, for example, will be to cover the big gap that have left Gerard Hammered and Ronald Araújo, those who will not be dispoibles.

The Barça confirmed this Sunday the injury of the Catalan and one of the captains of the first team. After seeing forced to abandon the field during the party in front of the Sportive Alavés of this Saturday, which the Barcelona group empató 1-1 to add his third consecutive prick. Gerard Hammered "has one overloads in the sóleo of the right leg. Slope of more proofs to know the exact scope of this overloads", whereas Ronald Araújo has been lesionado from the last stop FIFA.

Like this then , Clément Lenglet aims to accompany to Eric García in the axis of the defensive saga of the Barça. The French carries long move# away of his best level and every time that is in the field generates a lot of doubts, because it has accustomed to commit silly errors that finish benefiting to the rival team. In any case, supposes an opportunity of gold for Lenglet, the one who can show that it deserves a gap in the team. A good performance would be a balsam for the Barcelona.

Nevertheless, also it is the possibility that Òscar Mingueza was the companion of Eric in the centre of the defensive saga. It is the position natutal of the player formed in The Masia and where better manages , although from the Barça have empeñado in that it play like right side so that Sergiño Dest can play more advanced, as extreme. Sergi Barjuan could put to the international in the band.

Coutinho... Headline?

Another of the big incógnitas of the alignment of the Barça to measure in front of the Dynamo is the titularity or no of Philippe Coutinho, the one who is signing an abysmal return to the Barcelona picture. The Brazilian is very far of his best version and are more the debts that certainties that have left his performances. In any case, could accompany to Memphis in the forward, with Luuk of Jong, or split from a more retarded position, more near of the centre of the Barcelona field.

In definite, is a party complicated for the Barça and for Barjuan, the one who will have to do malabares to form an alignment with so many players lesionados. All the sectors of the field have seen weakened and the situation is, as little, critical. It will remain to see by what bets the Barcelona interim trainer... But they are very few the options that has of face to the 'final' in front of the Dynamo of Kiev.
