Barça continues to beat negative records: The worst defense in 17 seasons

The FC Barcelona went back to suffer to win to the Real Betis and fit two new goals in his pigeonhole. The culés are conceding a lot backwards and seems that they suffer against almost any rival to the that confront . The Barcelona leave too space between the line of means and the defence and the contrary are taking advantage of to hurt him to Marc-André ter Stegen​.

Fekir And Channels, of penalti, went the authors of the goals of a Betis that did not have big occasions, but yes gave feeling of danger in the first part. It does some days, the Athletic neither had hardly opportunities to plant the area blaugrana, but when they had it did not forgive and finish deleting to the barcelonistas of the Glass of Rey. The Raise, does a pair of weeks, yes did a lot damage in the second time and had three very clear occasions. Luckily, the granotas failed a pair of them and at the end the Barça carried the three points suffering.

In definite, this Barcelona is a defensive disaster in comparison to the of previous seasons. In fact, the Catalans are beating negative records in defence and did not carry so many goals fit to these heights from did 17 years. Right now, the culés add 28 so many against in the day 23, whereas in this course 2002/2003 carried already 30 against.

With statistics like this, is very complicated that the Barça can compete this League to the end. Neither it seems likely that can win a Champions League in which the rivals do not are used to to forgive if it concedes a lot backwards. In domestic competition, the difference between the Barcelona and varied of the ten first qualifiers is abysmal in the referred to goals fit. The Real Madrid, leader with three points more than the ones of Setién, carry only 14, the Athletic of Madrid 15, the Athletic Club 19, the Seville 23, the Getafe 20...

The Cantabrian trainer has to break with this abysmal series and find the way to do of the Barça a reliable team backwards. That the Madrid have received the half of the goals that the blaugrana says a lot of his defensive level. In fact, the merengues even carry less so many against that those that has fit the Barcelona to domicile. Out of house, the Catalans suffer the indecible and have marked them already 17 targets.

Ter Stegen Has avoided several goals sung

These numbers would be a lot of worse if Ter Stegen had not avoided goals sung in quite a lot of commitments. The German is being the only that is giving the face in this section, but needs that the group correspond him and begins to give more than himself. The central have to be more attentive and the midfield players and forwards much more together so that the team do not split and leave so many spaces backwards. That is the mission of Setién for this final stretch of season in which the Barça will need this defensive reliability to fulfil with the aims.
