Calendar of FC Barcelona

The trainer of the FC Barcelona, Ernesto Valverde, still would not have resolved all his doubts in relation to the eleven headline that will jump to the terrain of game of Tangier this Sunday against the Seville, in the frame of the Supercopa of Spain 2018. The Barça does days that works with all his international, but some of them accumulate very few entrenos, by what the 'Txingurri' will range to those who find in better form.

The most likely is that in the goal can see to Jasper Cillessen, the one who has played it practically everything in what we carry of pre-season, and that enjoys of the absolute confidence of Ernesto Valverde when treating , definitely, of one of the best goalkeepers of the European panorama.

Sergi Roberto will not be able to be present by sanction in the right side, that will be for Nélson Semedo to 100%. The Portuguese has surrendered to big level during the parties of turns it North American, and will want to take advantage of these first parties of the course to win little by little the titularity or, at least, more leadership that the past campaign.

With Jordi Alba like fixed in the left side, foresees that Gerard Hammered and Clément Lenglet are the central headlines, when carrying Samuel Umtiti less trainings that the rest of his competitors by the place. Sergio Busquets will be immovable in the defensive pivote, of the same way that Arthur Melo that has left very good feelings in United States.

Doubts of Valverde with the position of Coutinho

From here, we find us with the first doubt: it will play Rakitic or Coutinho in the centre of the field? If Valverde decides to plant to Coutinho ene l front of attack, accompanying to Leo Messi and Luis Suárez, the Croatian midfield player would have place in the alignment title.

However, it is possible that Coutinho pass to form part of the room of machines culé, exerting 'of Iniesta', and that Malcom Filipe or Ousmane Dembélé -the first part with advantage- can have an opportunity. From 'FCBN', in any case, decant us more by the option of Coutinho in the attack, with Rakitic-Busquets-Arthur in the centre of the field.

Everything will depend, this yes, of the final decision that can take Ernesto Valverde after the session of training of this Saturday, hardly some hours before it begin to film the spherical in Tangier. It was cual was the eleven headline, the aim will be the same: win, win and win.
