Calendar of FC Barcelona

The 'boy for all' of Ernesto Valverde, Sergi Roberto, is accustomed to alternate the position of right side with a role in the centre of the field, something that has been usual in the last seasons since Luis Enrique discovered that it could be a carrilero right-handed of guarantees for the FC Barcelona, finding him like this a definite gap in the staff culé.

Since, Sergi Roberto has been able to act of right side, defensive pivote, right interior, left interior, mediapunta, false nine and also of extreme in some punctual occasion, as in one of the last Classical contested against the Real Madrid in the Bernabéu.

Now, after the course of Lucas Digne to the Everton, the FC Barcelona has clear that no fichará to a spare of the French to relieve to Jordi Alba when it was necessary in the alignments. In this coyuntura, will use to the players of the Barça B, Cucurella and Juan Miranda, that have a big progression by in front and are decided to explode his qualities in the first team.

Juan Miranda would be the left-handed side elected by Ernesto Valverde, but does not foresee that have index card of the first team this next campaign, but it will alternate the filial with the first staff and will be summoned when it was necessary, like sucedió with Carles Aleñá the past course.

In this sense, if in a party Jordi Alba lesiona and needs the change, and Juan Miranda is not summoned in the bench, is possible that Ernesto Valverde, as long as it decide not changing the tactical training of the team, bet by Sergi Roberto like left-handed side of urgency.

The Barça has resources in the staff

It would not be the first time that the canterano Barcelona plays on time in said position, and after having it done with solvency in the right side, is possible that the formula give good result. The fact that Sergi Roberto can be the 'patch' for almost any position, besides, will give more freedom to Nélson Semedo to try progress and have more minutes in the right-handed lane of the defence. The FC Barcelona does not need fichar to a new left side, this is clear. With what has in the staff and what will go up of the Barça B... It is more than sufficient.
