Quique Setién decided to follow with his politics of rotations in the party against the Seville of this Friday. The trainer barcelonista took out to the field an unpublished trident to date with Martin Braithwaite in the left, Luis Suárez in the centre and Leo Messi escorado to the right. Antoine Griezmann was acting after chaining two consecutive titularities, whereas Ansu Fati, headline in front of the Leganés, neither went out of start.

The French forward jumped to the terrain of game in the second part in replacement of Arturo Vidal to fault of some 15 minutes for the end. The Barça did not find the way to hurt to the sevillistas in this final stretch of meeting and seemed that Setién went to exhaust his options taking out also to Ansu, but did not go like this. The technician left two changes for doing in the Pizjuán and preferred to put before even to Riqui Puig that to the Hispanic forward-guinean.

Not to give him an alone minute to Fati was definitely one of the most controversial decisions of the santanderino in front of the hispalenses. The canterano arrived to the better crash that never after being the best against the Leganés does some days. The international Sub-21 Spanish marked the 1-0 with a big shot in front of the pepineros and while it was in the field was the big danger of the culés. It expected that after a performance like this at least had minutes from the bench, but this no sucedió.

Setién, that only did three changes (Arthur, Griezmann and Riqui) explained this arguing that it wanted to protect the centre of the field and saw to Luis Suárez well, but his words do not finish to convince. "We wanted to win the party, the three that change understood that they were offensive options, Luis was well, ask him and said that yes, Leo has to be in the field, had thought to take out before to Riqui or to Ansu, but also had to consider the capacity in the half field to control the losses and other", commented. It is necessary to clear that the ex of the Betis preferred to play with 4 in the half and 2 up during more than a chamber of hour taking out to Arthur by Braithwaite, but went back to the 4-3-3 when it took out to Antoine.

The true is that after the 0-0 is much easier to take out conclusions, but already during the party saw clear that the Barça needed the speed and the desborde of Fati. Although Suárez gave his "ok", the charrúa no cuajó a good crash and would have to have been replaced to give entrance to the juvenile. The meeting asked something distinct and the one of Guinea-Bissáu was the only that could give him something of vertigo and one against one, something that neither Riqui, neither Arthur and not even Griezmann could give.

Setién Prevailed the management of changing room to the football

It is evident that the rotations are important, but Ansu did not contest neither a whole hour in front of the Leganés, by what was in conditions to play in Seville. The decision of Setién based then partly in the futbolístico, as account, but also in the management of changing room. The trainer culé did not want to seat to Suárez, that was the normal change, although the performance of the Uruguayan was not being the best. It is possible that the presence of Fati could have not meant at all for the party, but he won the minutes does some days and the own Barcelona threw him in fault in the second part. It will be necessary to see what decides the míster this Tuesday against the Athletic.
