How many lines of defense has Barça used this season?

Along the course 2021-22, the saga has been one of the feeblest lines for the FC Barcelona, what has forced to the trainer, Xavi Hernández, to have of distinct combinations during the season. Of this way, the couple of head offices has suffered an important number of modifications. In front of Valencia, is possible innovar with a line of distinct defence given the injuries ysanciones of some defenders.

Such is the case of Samuel Umtiti and Clément Lenglet. Both French players still find in stage of recovery and do not appear in the announcement. To this add the sanctions of Gerard Hammered and Dani Alves, what to his time brings new headaches for the egarense, that will have to devise them to have of solid figures in his last line on the field.

In total, already would be 24 the distinct combinations used by the Barcelona in what it goes of season, adding also the days in which Ronald Koeman and Sergi Barjuan were at the top of the Barcelona bench. Now with Xavi to the control and in a new 'final' in front of Valencia, there is not margin of error, by what keep the arch in zero will be vital for a team that wants to go back to the places of Champions.

The options of Xavi

With the return of Ronald Araújo to the announcement, the Uruguayan could be available from the start of the commitment to do pair with Éric García. Meanwhile, the sides could be Sergiño Dest or Óscar Mingueza by the right lane, whereas the left would be busy, of course, by Jordi Alba.

In case to choose to the North American, would treat of a new combination, since when they were Éric and Araújo accompanying him in front of the Granada, the left side was occupied by Alejandro Balde. Mingueza Already has fulfilled with the role of carrilero, but no with the couple of head offices conformed by the Uruguayan and the ex player of the Manchester City.

Of this way, Xavi will look for to avoid that the Barcelona team continue adding goals against along the season. In fact, the figures already begin to generate worry: the Barcelona already adds 26 goals fit in the 33 parties that accumulates during the course. Only in seven of them has been possible to culminate the meeting without allowing so many rivals.
