FC Barcelona will not be able to count on Pedri, Lewandowski or Dembélé for the Clásico. Without their two best attackers, it is time for Raphinha and Ferran Torres to take the step forward that they have been asking for for a long time. It's time for both of them and they can't let this opportunity pass.

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Ferran Torres and Raphinha have been two important bets of the FC Barcelona that still have not given the performance expected. The Spanish arrived in January of this 2023 in return of 55 million euros more other 10 by aims, whereas the Brazilian landed theoretically by 58 fixed and other 12 in variables. In the case of the international 'canarinho', has said also that his price was of 48+12 and even has spoken of 58+7, but was as it was, went a powerful operation.

After costing so much money, expected that they went two important footballers for the Barça, but any of the two has finish to explode still. In the case of Raphinha, sum 7 goals and 8 assistances between all the competitions this course. They are figures more than interesting for an extreme, but that have not gone accompanied of good feelings. Although it has left details of a lot of class, already was with centres with his wonderful left leg, with shots or with dribblings, follows him throwing in fault more disequilibrium, better taking of decisions and more personality with ball.

Ferran, instead, has played less than the ex of the Leeds and carries 5 targets and an assistance. The Valencian, this yes, only has been headline in 12 parties of the 30 contested, by the 22 of the of Carry Cheerful in 34 meetings. Therefore, no it can them measure of the same form neither can them demand the same at least until the moment. Nevertheless, to both yes has to them ask that they take a step forward in the Classical of this Thursday against the Real Madrid.

Ferran and Raphinha, the big references culés

With Robert Lewandowski and Ousmane Dembélé of drop by injury, and Ansu Fati recently gone out of another, Torres and Raphinha go to be with total security the big references of the Barcelona in Santiago Bernabéu. In case that Xavi Hernández go out with four midfield players, something that is for seeing, Ferran will be the 'false 9' and the Brazilian will move by the right-handed extreme, as it does of usual form. In case that it play Ansu, both will be still in the same positions, but will have more help against the defence madridista.

Raphinha en el Barça-United
 

But it was as it was and it play the one who play, the international Spanish and the 'canarinho' go to be by state of form, price and role, the offensive leaders of the Barça in front of the Madrid. It expects of them, no longer only that they ask the balloon and hurt to the rival saga, but besides that they can be decisive with goals or assistances that allow to his take out a good result of the capital of Spain.

 

Raphinha, as it has said , will split from the right with security. Here it will see the faces with Nacho Fernández, that will have to play here by the injuries of David Praises and of Ferland Mendy. The polyvalent defender merengue always has given a good level here, but does not leave to be a central doing the 'arrangement' on foot changed. By this reason, the one of Carry Cheerful has to look for him one and one thousand times in the one against one to try hurt him. Without Dembélé and can that without a pure extreme in the left, the Barça needs disequilibrium and taking into account that it will attack to somebody out of place, has to try it much more of the normal.

But there is another option in which the Brazilian could be even more comfortable against his pair. Carlo Ancelotti could bet also by Eduardo Camavinga in the left-handed lane. The ex of the Rennes has surrendered well here in several crashes, shining in attack and leaving more doubts in defence. By these incógnitas and because it is dominating a lot in his place, the mediocentro, these last parties, is much more likely that the white technician have Nacho, that is much solider that he like side and that inside what fits goes to suffer less against the '22' Barcelona.

Ferran has to take advantage of his good moment

Ferran, instead, goes it to have much more difficult that his mate and goes them to him to have to see against Éder Militao and Antonio Rüdiger. The German does not impose so much and is not doing a good campaign, but the Brazilian is a portento physical and is being the man commissioned to sustain defensivamente to the Madrid. The Valencian will have to try move more by the zone of the ex of Chelsea to take out him of place and can hurt him to the back. It is very intelligent in his movements and desmarques, by what if it goes out 'enchufado' and his mates see him, could do a lot of damage in this flank beside the own '22'.

Lewandowski y Ferran Torres celebran un gol

 

Besides, the ex of Valencia and City arrives in a good moment in the personal that has to take advantage of to go a step further. Against the Cádiz does a week and average completed his best performance with the Barcelona and so much in front of United as in front of the Almería left good feelings. Now it touches him show that has 'wood' to title in front of a Real Madrid to the that already marked him in the remembered 0-4 of the past year.

Without Lewandowski neither Dembélé, both have to assume chevrons if they want to follow aspiring to the eleven initial once recover the Pole and the French. It is the moment of Ferran and Raphinha and can not fail. If they are not to the height can that they do not go back to have another so ideal opportunity like this to leave clear that have level, personality and hunger to be important in this new Barça.
