In absence of Ousmane Dembélé, Ernesto Valverde has yielded minutes to Malcom and the Brazilian has answered with football, goals and assistances against Espanyol, Villarreal and Athletic of consecutive form. Now, Dembélé is about to to recover but Malcom has showed already to Valverde that can be a big resource against the Manchester United, this Wednesday in Old Trafford.

Although it was not headline, the Brazilian could act of revulsivo in the second half to contribute verticality to the Barcelona team and look for spaces in the defence 'network devil', by which colar assistances or goals. The one of Sao Paulo is very ilusionado when seeing that it goes participating of progressive form in the parties of the Barça, and will go out extramotivado to Old Trafford if the 'Txingurri' gives him minutes.

Malcom already marked this season in Giuseppe Meazza against the Inter of Milan (1-1), in Champions League, and in another big appointment like the semifinals of the Glass of the King against the Real Madrid (1-1), in the Camp Nou. This, without explaining other two goals annotated in Glass and League -the one who lumbered with him to the Villarreal-, that have showed to the barcelonismo that treats of a player with gunpowder, although it do not have too many minutes.

The footballer is convinced that it has arrived him his moment in the FC Barcelona, and is had to take advantage of it. In 652 minutes, accumulates 4 goals and 2 assistances in spite of having played in the majority of occasions of intermittent way, appearing in the field when they remained few minutes for the end. When has minutes answers, and to his 22 years is showing courage and personality.

The return of Arturo Vidal and the turn of Ousmane Dembélé could condition negatively the participation of Malcom this Wednesday against the Manchester United, without forgetting the high probabilities that Philippe Coutinho was headline: first, because it surrendered to good level in front of the Athletic, and second, because it already has experience in parties against the 'network devils'.

Malcom wants to more opportunities in the Barça

By performance, Malcom deserves to have at least some minutes in the Theatre of the Dreams, although all will depend of the result and of the needs of the team in each moment. What seems clear is that Malcom wants to remain in the Barcelona and triumph. If it follows having minutes of form more or less regulate, and continues answering with goals and assistances, Valverde will do him a gap in the staff of the next season.
