The Brazilian midfield player of the FC Barcelona, Paulinho Bezerra, has arrived collapsed physically at the end of the season 2017-18. It could not do pre-season neither have holidays this summer, and is paying it expensive in the final stretch of the course

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Paulinho Bezerra Turned into the 'covered' of the FC Barcelona during the first months of the season, showing a big level of game and a flawless physical state to his arrival, taking into account that just before arriving found to half season with the Guangzhou. In this last third of course with the FC Barcelona, however, Paulinho Bezerra has gone down slightly his competitive level, surely to the not being accustomed to play so many parties of similar physical requirement in comparison with the last campaigns that contested in China.

The physical conditions of Paulinho are very good, but results logical also that, to the not being accustomed to play season so plagadas of meetings, the Brazilian midfield player have suffered without wanting to it a bajón that is affecting to his performance in the FC Barcelona.

The first criticisms of the fans culé already have arrived him, and will have to serve him as it touch of attention so that, little by little, go back to recover the level with which marvelled to the 'fans' culés during the first third of the season 2017-18. This does not want to say that it have to go back to mark goals, but to star the constant feeling of danger that generated with his confined to the attack.

The physical load does mella in Paulinho

For the moment, in the last weeks Paulinho already has lost bellows in the alignments of Valverde, thing that remained checked this Tuesday with the eleven initial of the 'Txingurri' and the changes that carried out in the second half. The Brazilian began being the big revulsivo of Ernesto Valverde during the beginning of the course 2017-18, jumping to the terrain of game in the second times to try desatascar the meetings. It began his recital in front of the Getafe and marked until eight goals. However, now his progression has braked .

The 'box to box' of the Barça has gone diluting like an azucarillo. His presence in the field no longer is so intimidatoria, does not arrive with so much ease to attack neither to defend, neither gives the feeling to be in all the parts of the field as when it began to play with the Barça.

Paulinho Arrived without holidays to the Barça

The physical fatigue is azotando to Paulinho, since it arrived to the FC Barcelona without resting after making the season with the Guangzhou, by what is suffering the physical consequences of the wear that carry his legs. What in his arrival turned into an advantage because it awarded him rhythm, now him ocasiona one overloads of minutes that hacenque do not surrender to the same level. It carries a year without holidays, and is affecting him.

The criticisms, in this sense, surely are unfair. The 'Txingurri' knows that it is an important player in his plans, by what has to reserve him to preserve his physical state with the aim to arrive to the final stretch of the season with a similar level to the of the start of course. With the so loaded calendar of parties that has the Barça, will be complicated. But the Barça needs to the best Paulinho.
