This is how Koeman is showing that he is the coach that FC Barcelona needed

After the greater humiliation in the history of the FC Barcelona -the eight goals fit in front of the Bayern of Munich in the quarter-finals of the Champions League- Ronald Koeman was the elected to relieve to Quique Setién in the bench of the Camp Nou. Him fichó by his knowledge of the club after his path like player, by his philosophy futbolística and also by his character.

When arriving to the FC Barcelona, Ronald Koeman showed to have the very clear ideas, imposing the system 4-2-3-1 that so well worked him in the Dutch selection and communicating in first person with which players did not explain. By the moment, the results maybe have not been the optimum, but the reality is that the team sees much more compact and with a much more consolidated idea on his idea of game.

Ronald Koeman is a brave trainer that has dared to descartar to some veterans to give the alternative to the youngsters. The contribution of the technician goes, therefore, much more there of an idea futbolística. The Dutch no only knows to what wants to play, but it has calado very positively in the staff by his clarity, by his idea and, besides has been able to treat with psychology concrete cases.

It has done it in numerous occasions, as with Leo Messi with which was clear from the beginning and that, of an apparent initial coolness, happened to the embrace between both after the party of the Juventus of Turín. Antoine Griezmann is another of the cracks that received the backrest of the trainer olandés after the duel of Champions League in spite of that it did not go out him at all.

It is curious also his form to carry to the more youngsters, giving them confidence in the parties but criticising publicly when they are not to the height. It did it with Ansu Fati asking him concentration, did it with Frenkie of Jong after his bad party against the Seville and did it with Ousmane Dembélé recriminando his little defensive implication. But to all they has gone them giving continuity, combining sticks with palmadas in the back.

Ronald Koeman likes to the changing room

With Ronald Koeman, the competitiveness has gone back to the FC Barcelona. Can win or lose, but the team knows to what plays and has showed it in hard parties like the one of the Real Madrid in LaLiga Santander or the Juventus of Turín in the Champions League. The trainings go back to be intense, the team goes back to presionar and, in little time, there has been an evident wash of face. Of course, they can not do miracles, but dress it up to now gives for the optimism.
