The FC Barcelona has decided by Éric Abidallike new technical secretary, relieving to Robert Fernández in the charge. The castellonense arrived to the Barcelona club in the temorada 2015 and, from this moment, has made 12 signings with a performance dispar. 

In the season 2015-16 fichó to Denis Suárez (3,5 millions), Digne (16,5), Umtiti (25), André Gomes (35), Cillessen (13) and Alcácer (30). In the following, the 2016-17, hired to Deulofeu (12), Semedo (30,5), Paulinho (40) and Dembélé (105). Finally, during the last month of January, fichó to Coutinho (120 ) and Yerry Mina(11,8).

Tarpaulins and errors of Robert

Tarpaulins

The big tarpaulin of Robert Fernández by quality and price was the one of fichar to Samuel Umtiti, although Éric Abidal, new technical secretary, would have been the one who would have recommended it to him. By 25 millions the FC Barcelona carried to a player that soon cnvirtió in one of the defensive pillars of the team culé, so much with Luis Enrique as with Valverde.

Philippe Coutinho, in spite of that it is the most expensive signing of the history of the FC Barcelona, seems that it has been a big tarpaulin of Robert that was empeñado totally in carrying it to the Camp Nou. In hardly five months, Philippe Coutinho showed that it will be a very important player for the future of the club because of his enormous quality.

 

Errors

The big error of Robert Fernández was to accept pay him to Valencia 35 million euros by André Gomes. The Portuguese midfield player has not adapted at all to the game of the FC Barcelona, something that could predict when it played in Mestalla: it treats of a powerful player and of driving, something that is not sufficient to play like interior in the Barça, position in which it needs capacity of association.

Another of the errors was repescar to Gerard Deulofeu, that did not achieve to triumph in his previous stages like Barcelona. True is that in the Milan yes recovered part of his game, but did not achieve it in the Camp Nou. Now the Barça will have to sell him and will lose money, although no as much as the one who will lose with André Gomes.
