The bleeding of goals continues in a Barça that needs to shield its goal

If we take in account the 9 first day of League, the FC Barcelona has fit six (6!) Goals more than the past season, one in which precisely this defensive solidity that now seems to have disappeared was the one who allowed him raise the title when finalising the course. And it is that only including the two first parties of Champions League of both seasons, this figure could have some mejoría when going down until three, an equally notorious difference.

In nine days contested to date, the picture barcelonista has fit ten goals. In the past season, in the same instances, had conceded only four, one in front of the Real Sociedad and three in front of the Real Madrid in the Classical. In that then, the culés were showing an impressive solidity for 'sustain' to the team. In fact, the Barça took 31 days in fitting this quantity of goals (11), an overwhelming difference, because in addition to the fit in fields as they Are Moix, The Ceramics or The Cármenes, the team of Xavi has showed a much more fragile version.

The difference between a Barça and the 'another' is being very big

After two big exhibitions (Betis and Amberes) in the return of LaLiga after the stop of selections, the ones of Xavi Hernández have left parties very poor to defensive level. In front of the Celtic, the spirit and the strength from the terracings of Montjuïc topped the traced back (unthinkable), but in front of the Mallorca or Granada was not sufficient. In any case, further to leave points on the way, for the Barça has to be a called of attention to defensive level: they are fitting a lot of goals and, more worrisome still, the rivals are planting easily in the area of Ter Stegen to generate occasions. ​​​​​​

So much the guardameta German like the defenders culés are suffering with aerial balloons, contragolpes or balloons in long, a situation that practically never lived in League the past season. The '1' of the Barça has been the MVP in several parties in this course, but still like this has not reached him to save to Xavi in other meetings, the one who right now does not have clear how go back to build this defence of does some months.

Neither headlines neither acting have given confidence to Xavi

It is true that for this season arrived Joao Cancel and the luso, unlike Koundé, offers much more in attack that in defence, but by the left Balde has not had almost collaboration of his mates and in the centre, Koundé and Christensen have left a lot of doubts. Besides, Iñigo Martínez or Marcos Alonso when they have been on the field have not been able to fulfil the expectations that the technical body has in them regarding the rotations of the defence.
