Ernesto Valverde has of a lot of possibilities in the alignment title that it will jump to the field this Sunday against the Raise in the Ciutat of València. To the absence of Leo Messi could join the ones of other indisputable pieces in the eleven usual
They are not few the dilemmas that has had Ernesto Valverde in his alignments along the present season 2017-18. Of face to the next onces, already with the 'doublet' of League Santander and Glass of the King in the pocket, knows that it will be able to play more with the alignments titled and the rotations, although they exist doubts on until which point will give minutes to the players that have had less leadership.
The preparador extremeño of the FC Barcelona will have free road to decide, of way consensuada with his big stars, if it gives them more rest of the usual or no in the last parties of the season 2017-18. However, it will want to finish the season imbatido. In this coyuntura, the two remaining days can serve to give minutes to the players that have not participated so much along the course, but equally expects that Valverde keep a solid block with basic pillars in each alignment.
The Raise-Barcelona of this Sunday will go back to serve to do proofs and give rest to players very loaded of minutes, and is possible therefore that Yerry Mina and Vermaelen, for example, finish forming the defensive saga of the Barça, with Semedo in the right side and Jordi Alba, that was acting in front of the Villarreal, in the left lane.
It foresees also that Marc-André Ter Stegen return to the goal, although Jasper Cillessen also has ballots to go back to be headline after having it been in the Camp Nou this past Wednesday in front of the 'yellow submarine'.
The centre of the field is the zone that could present the greater novelties, with possible suplencias of Iniesta and Busquets to leave step to Rakitic, that will return to the titularity, beside Paulinho and Denis Suárez, André Gomes or Paulinho.
Up, the presence of Luis Suárez seems safe, beside the one of Ousmane Dembélé and surely also the one of Philippe Coutinho like extreme or mediapunta, doing 'of Messi' because of the unexpected drop of the Argentinian star, to the one who Valverde has not summoned.
Alcácer Also has options to be headline
In any case, the true is that Valverde has of a lot of possibilities, since Paco Alcácer also could be headline in the forward, whereas Coutinho could occupy the place of Iniesta in the left interior instead of acting in the extreme or the mediapunta, although of what there is not doubt is that the Brazilian will live a new titularity with the Barcelona T-shirt. A Barça full of novelties, in definite, will try to carry the three points of the Ciutat of València this Sunday.
