Ernesto Valverde saw as in the first party of the Champions League lost to Samuel Umtiti, one of the key players of the team, for seeing the red cardboard after an action with Hirving Lozano. In front of the Tottenham, will have to choose
The victory of the FC Barcelona against the PSV Eindhoven in the première in Champions League of the group culé left an important setback for Ernesto Valverde: the expulsion of Samuel Umtiti. No only by what supposes to lose him for the following European crash, but by the stage in which it will not be able to have he: Wembley.
The FC Barcelona will have to face the one who probably is the most dangerous party in all the phase of groups: like visitor in front of the Tottenham. The English team lost his first duel and plays it to him receiving the Barça home. Taking into account his needs and the quality of his staff, foresees a very hard crash.
Ernesto Valverde will not be able to have his usual defence and, contrary to his ideas, will see forced to experience in a key party. For suplir to Samuel Umtiti has two options: trust Clément Lenglet, signing of this season, or in Thomas Vermaelen, player that made a good season in the first year of the technician.
In principle, the favourite seems the central French. Lenglet Arrived pertinent of the Seville this summer in return of 36 million euros and is in front of his big opportunity to play. His big qualities allow him be a very useful player if it achieves adapt to the defensive system culé, something in what it is hard at work.
The one of Lenglet is the logical option, but maybe more risked that the one of Thomas Vermaelen. The Txingurri knows perfectly to the Belgian since it offered an extraordinary performance the past campaign with the absence of Samuel Umtiti by injury. It would be a very safe option to armour the defence culé at the side of Gerard Hammered.
The Tottenham, with jugadres dangerous
The Tottenham is a very complicated team to defeat, especially by his important offensive power. Or Clément Lenglet or Thomas Vermaelen will have to face up to Harry Kane, one of the goleadores more lethal of the world, especially by his aerial game. Other footballers like Erikssen or Are also will have to be taken into account.
