Rakitic, the "covered" of Luis Enrique to play of head office

Who went him to say to Marc Bartra that, hardly two months after leaving of the FC Barcelona by fault of minutes, to Luis Enrique went him to escasear the central in the first day of League Santander 2016-17 against the Real Betis in the Camp Nou. "I struggle" it will not be able to have Mascherano neither Mathieu because of the respective injuries of both.

Besides, neither it will be able to summon to the young defender of the Barça B that so good feelings had generated during the pre-season 2016, Marlon Santos, by some bureaucratic problems that entorpecen even more the announcement of the Asturian. In this point, and with Gerard Hammered and Samuel Umtiti like only -and headlines- central against the Real Betis, Luis Enrique will have to improvise in the case that any of the two suffer some physical mishap or need rest along the ninety minutes.

And, for this, in the press conference of this Friday no descartó use to Sergi Roberto or Ivan Rakitic like head offices, when being the first the "joker" of the Barça for the big majority of positions and the second have a good physical plant, in addition to ideal conditions to act in such position to the detriment of Sergio Busquets, to the one who is missing him something of speed.

"We had to use to Rakitic like emergency of central" when lesionó Mascherano in the last minutes of the FC Barcelona-Seville FC, recognised Luis Enrique. Therefore, the Croat is a serious possibility, although it expects in Can Barça that do not have to give said situation, since this will want to say that Samuel Umtiti or Gerard Hammered have lesionado. Touch wood.
