The FC Barcelona confronts now to an important problem after knowing the time that will be of drop Luis Suárez. The charrúa will not be able to go back to get dressed of short until May and the Barcelona go to remain without leading centre until then. There is not another '9' pure in the staff and, unless fiche in this market of wintry signings, Ernesto Valverde will have to look for other options for his eleven.

If the 'Txingurri' continues in the Barça, will have to be the attendant to carry out the situation without the one of Jump. The simplest solution would be to reposition to Antoine Griezmann as 'false leading' and put to Ansu Fati in the left until it return Ousmane Dembélé. Also it is very feasible that was Leo Messi the one who play in the centre with the Frenchman and the juvenile by the sides. Any of these alternative trastocarían too the eleven and the diagram of the technician extremeño.

But no for being the easiest options have reason be the best that has the one of Viandar of the Edge in the staff. In fact, the best possible solution could be precisely the more rompedora. The change of system could be the best remedy to the drop of long length of Luis Suárez. Happen of the 4-3-3 so usual to a 4-4-2 could be just what needs the Barça to improve his performance and paliar while the injury of the Uruguayan.

With a 4-4-2, Messi and Antoine Griezmann could have a lot of more freedom up that in the 4-3-3. The '10' and the '17' could move by all the front of attack to go back crazy to the rival head offices, that never would have mark. For this, would be necessary that behind them played a player with arrival, physicist and goal like Arturo Vidal. The Chilean would contribute this 'plus' necessary of character without Suárez in the field, in addition to his ease to arrive to the rival area.

After the Argentinian, the Frenchman and the Chilean, Of Jong, Rakitic and Busquets would control the centre of the field. Arthur could go in by the Croat once recover to give him more command still to the Barcelona in the half. With them and with Vidal by in front, the culés could improve his control of the parties, that until the moment has been very irregular. With four means and with Messi and Griezmann up, anybody could remove him the balloon to the blaugrana if all are to his level.

The change of system can help to defend better

It is necessary to take into account a lot of factors with this change of diagram, but as it is the Barça is complicated that the team go to worse. Besides, with four means would reinforce the defence, since there would be a player more to the hour to recover the spherical and help to the defenders. The defensive problems of the culés this course are being very evident and this could be a solution for paliarlos. The drop of Suárez is an important setback in attack, but is in hands of Valverde that can finish being something positive in other facets of the game.
