Lately it is speaking a lot of Gerard Hammered by his state of form descomunal but his usual mate in the axis of the defence, Clément Lenglet, neither remains short. Both form a very solid pair in defence

The past season, Samuel Umtiti was the attendant to accompany to Gerard Hammered in the central axis of the defence of the FC Barcelona. In summer, the Barcelona club decided fichar to Clément Lenglet pertinent of the Seville like third head office, but the current circumstances have carried to this last to turn into indisputable headline.

It is truth that the terquedad of Samuel Umtiti by not wanting to operate his maltrecha knee has helped to Lenglet to have opportunities to win the place, but the true is that his performance does that his titularity was indisputable to day of today, in spite of that his mate was apparently recovered.

Lenglet Forms beside Hammered one of the couples of head offices solider of the world. The Catalan is possibly in the best moment of his career, whereas the Frenchman has turned into his escudero of luxury. Both have achieved to give him back to the FC Barcelona this defensive reliability that there was not at the beginning of the season.

This feeling that we are speaking of a couple of defences of the best of the planet also sees reflected in the numbers. And it is that in the last 20 official parties with Hammered and Lenglet of head offices, the FC Barcelona only has fit eight goals. A mejoría tremenda if we look backwards, when in the start of campaign there was worry by the ease with which the team fit.

Now everything seems distinct. The team of Ernesto Valverde has attained to leave the goal to zero in 13 of these 20 meetings. In total are ten of League (Villarreal, Espanyol -in first and second turn-, Raise, Celtic, Eibar, Girona, Athletic, Real Madrid and Athletic of Madrid), two of Champions (Olympique of Lyon and Manchester United) and Glass of Rey (Real Madrid).

It has given beginning the definite stretch of the season in which the FC Barcelona will play the titles. It will be necessary to see if this defensive reliability keeps to the end, but for the moment the way is the correct. If I Hammered and Lenglet follow to this level, the Barcelona group will have a wall of security infranqueable.
