With the important party of Champions League against the Manchester City in the horizon, Luis Enrique did not resort to the easy option that was to put to Samuel Umtiti and Leo Messi on the lawn in front of the Sportive of The Coruña, but it decided to leave them in the bench for, in addition to not to force them physically -the principles of party always are more intense-, reserve them of face to the duel in front of the "citizens" of Guardiola.

Samuel Umtiti and Leo Messi, to the equal that Ivan Rakitic, finish to surpass important injuries that have kept them in the dry dam around three weeks. The ailment of the Croatian midfield player was less grave and could be ranged in the eleven headline in front of the Dépor, but in the case of Umtiti and Messi Luis Enrique preferred not risking, taking into account that it treats of two of his best men.

Of this way, the tactics of "Struggle" was clear: if it was necessary and the party needed it, would do to play to Messi and Umtiti in the second half, but if the team achieved encarrilar the marker in the first-half thanks to Neymar, Luis Suárez and Burn Turan in attack, would not be necessary the participation of the two "cracks" seated in the bench.

Good formula, therefore, for Luis Enrique that thinks always in dosificar the minutes of his fundamental pillars. The titularity of Mascherano in front of the Sportive, in this sense, does to think besides that the "Jefecito" will not be to title the Wednesday against the Manchester City, leaving his place to Samuel Umtiti, of the same form that will do Rafinha Alcántara and Burn Turan with Leo Messi and Andrés Iniesta.

In the sides, expects that Sergi Roberto and Jordi Alba are also rested and recovered the Wednesday to get dressed of short, by what Busquets, Rakitic, Ter Stegen, Gerard Hammered, Luis Suárez and Neymar Jr could be the only that repeat in the alignment.
