The style of game is innegociable for the FC Barcelona. From the arrival of Johan Cruyff to the bench culé, established in the team a philosophy based in having the balloon like offensive and defensive weapon, generating superiority in all the zones of the field and avoiding that the rival have the ball to create occasions of danger.

Since, they have arisen a lot of midfield players of the Masia that have carried to the practice said philosophy -as they can be Pep Guardiola, Xavi Hernández, Andrés Iniesta or Sergio Busquets- and a lot of signings have understood to perfection how fit in this style -as Deco or Ivan Rakitic- to help to the ones of house.
