If something has clear Nélson Semedo, is that it wants to take advantage of the pre-season to convince to Ernesto Valverde that it can be the side title of the FC Barcelona in the right band. For the moment, his big performances endorse him
Nélson Semedo Does not conform with being acting in the FC Barcelona, and is taking advantage of the present pre-season in United States, with his three parties in front of Tottenham, Rome and AC Milan, to leave clear to Ernesto Valverde -and to all the barcelonistas- that it is perfectly able to surrender to a big level of game in the right flank title of the Barcelona defence.
Aggressiveness, attitude, power, technical, offensive presence... They are not few the virtues that Semedo is contributing to the FC Barcelona, and this Saturday went back to face up it to the AC Milan of Genaro Gattuso, generating disequilibriums in the defence 'rossonera' with his confined offensive, and offering always amplitude of field and depth to his mates.
The Portuguese side knows that Sergi Roberto will not be able to be present in the Supercopa of Spain neither neither in the first day of LaLiga Santander 2018-19, what will allow him be headline in said parties. If it dazzles with good performances, is likely that Ernesto Valverde bet by the luso in the following commitments of the team.
It fits to take into account that Valverde has planted to Sergi Roberto only of midfield player in the three parties of pre-season in United States, what could be a clear statement of intentions by part of the technician barcelonista.
Sergi Roberto could play more than midfield player
Without Iniesta neither Paulinho, and in spite of the arrivals of Arthur and Arturo Vidal, Sergi Roberto could have an important quota of minutes in the centre of the field the next campaign, was of interior or like substitute of Sergio Busquets in the defensive pivote.
What is clear is that, to follow progressing, Semedo will need this next season more minutes that the past campaign. It is leaving big feelings in the International Champions Cup, and in front of the AC Milan went back to show it this Saturday. The main benefited of the competition with Sergi Roberto, as it is natural, will be the Barça. Maximum competitiveness.
