Long and tended has been speaking along the last weeks, since Luis Enrique announced that it will not continue in the place of trainer the next season, on who will finish being the relief of the Asturian technician in the bench of the first team.
After options like Sampaoli, Koeman or Eusebio remained descartadas, Ernesto Valverde and Juan Carlos Unzué won strength until turning into the two favourite "trainers" to assume the place in the case that the technical office of Robert Fernández give them opportunity.
A lot it has spoken on the qualities of one and another, and when one has lost bellows the another has won volume in the imaginary community of the Barça. However, from "FCBN" contemplate a third alternative that could finish being the key of the future successes of the Barça, as long as it pose by all the parts and finish working regarding chemistry and understanding.
This option is that Ernesto Valverde assume the charge of main trainer of the Barça, with Juan Carlos Unzué continuing in the "staff" technical like second technician of the team, a position that carries already three seasons occupying under the control of Luis Enrique.
Valverde-Unzué, a complementary tandem
In spite of that some can think it, the true is that it is not a madness. Both are connoisseurs of the club and, besides, would complement . The "Txingurri" Valverde would contribute the characteristic experience of a first trainer to the hour to take decisions, whereas Unzué would offer his influence and tactical knowledge, in addition to the experience in the deal with some players to those who knows like anybody.
We remember also that Valverde and Unzué shared changing room changing room in the Camp Nou to finals of the years 80, whereas in the case of Unzué knows perfectly what is to work with distinct technical bodies; it was trainer of goalkeepers to the orders of Frank Rijkaard and Pep Guardiola, before being technical assistant of Luis Enrique like "second" timonel in the Barcelona ship.
The option is perfectly plausible, although of course the indispensable condition would be that both accepted his role without "stepping " the one to theanother , going in in scene the chemistry to the hour to handle a changing room plagado of stars. Still it is a mystery which will finish being the decision of the technical office... The next weeks will dictate sentence in the FC Barcelona.
