This Monday already explained in FCBN that Xavi Hernández is had to risk with Frenkie of Jong like one of the three mediocampistas titled of the FC Barcelonto to play the gone of the quarter-finals of the Champions League. The Barcelona group has to visit this Wednesday to Paris Saint-Germain (21:00 hours), and will do it with the conviction of the míster of an offensive game that allow to the culés return to the City Condal with some advantage, as minimum.
Like this at least it signals it 'Sport', ensuring that the Barcelona entity expects that his classical 4-3-3, with two very marked extremes like Raphinha and Lamine Yamal, by the left and right respectively, can allow an offensive game that concern to a PSG that will have important drops in defence. Besides, the presence of Of Jong in the team, beside Gündogan and Christensen, pose the possibility that the Barça contest him without any problem the possession to the venues, a point that can be key in the party.
Xavi does not have any intention to defend the 90 minutes in Paris
To weigh that for some can sound as surprising that Xavi was thinking in not going out to defend in the Park of the Princes, it is necessary to remember that the Barça in the party of turn of the eighth of final in front of the Naples already showed that it can be a better team if it trusts to assault to the rival. In the gone in front of the Italians also saw a team like this, but no from the first minute, something that surely yes that will want the egarense in front of a team that attacks very well, but that in shrinking is much more accessible of what his 27 parties invictos say it.
In defence, with the 4-3-3 already mentioned, expects that so much Raphinha like Lamine can help to the sides every time that it was necessary, knowing that Ousmane Dembéle and Kylian Mbappé will use the bands every time that it was possible, as well as the another leading that can use Luis Enrique (probably Kolo Muani). However, both will give a capacity of fast exit very interesting, as it remained showed in front of the Naples with the 2-0 that marked Cancel after a big against.
Several factors that will play in favour of the Barça
Besides, it is necessary to remember that the PSG will not have to his right side headline, Achraf Hakimi, by sanction and probably will use to the youngster Zaire-Emery of the place of interior to carrilero right-handed. Therefore, the margin of Raphinha in attack and defence can serve to hurt up and defend with a bit more than tranquility to the not having to follow also to a so offensive side like Hakimi.
The Barça will have to trust also in the experience in this type of party of players like Ter Stegen, Gündogan and Lewandowski. The mediocampista German will be key in the zone of three chambers, where is able to filter passes and break the rival lines, trying connect with the '9' Polish, if finally it touches him this role of interior more advanced by the presence of Frenkie of Jong in the XI.
