Calendar of FC Barcelona

There was a time, no too far, in which the fans of the FC Barcelona remained marvelled in front of the debugged technical of Philippe Coutinho, able of engatusar to the barcelonismo with his tricks, dribblings, fast combinations and, especially, with his shots from out of the area that, or finish in golazo, or put in a commitment to any goalkeeper.

Philippe Coutinho landed stepping strong in the Barça. The pressure to be the most expensive signing of the history of the club -around 160 million euros- did not seem to weigh him during the first months, in which it annotated 10 goals for the Barça in half season, and this that arrived lesionado to the club and did not play until finals of January of 2018, without explaining besides that it could not contest the parties of Champions League.

But every time that appeared in the field generated fluidity of game in the front of Barcelona attack, and many took for granted that this course would be the one of his confirmation in the FC Barcelona, stepping advance with the Barcelona T-shirt to turn into one of the 'intocables' in the alignments, in spite of the presence of other players talentosos like Ousmane Dembélé, Malcom and company.

Although the wind blew in favour of Coutinho, the Brazilian threw the anchor. In November began to go down the competitive rhythm -coincided with an injury that kept him some weeks separated-, and in spite of the titularities and minutes that has gone him giving Valverde with the step of the months, the youngster and talentoso Brazilian footballer has not traced back.

This does not remove that it follow contributing destellos of quality and some goal, from time to time, but in the Barça all know that it can give much more. And it is time to to ask it. The FC Barcelona will face in the weeks to come decisive parties for his become in all the competitions, and will need to have to all his players with the maximum motivation and to the best possible level of performance.

Here it is where goes in Coutinho in the equation. Probably the tripleta Messi-Suárez-Dembélé can not play all the minutes of the 19 parties that subtract to consummate the longed for triplete, by what 'Cou' will have to be ready -especially psychologically- to reflect good performances on the terrain of game when it touch him dress of short.

19 parties for the triplete of the Barça

If all follows the correct way for the Barça this season 2018-19, to Coutinho remain him 19 parties to show that it follows 'alive' in the team, and that does not want to be meat of cannon of futures traspasos this next summer, or the following. If it wishes to remain in the FC Barcelona, will have to struggle thus and recover of the pothole that carries months suffering.

His mates will help him, and also the public of the Camp Nou. Now, more than ever, it is time to to support him to recover to the best 'Cou', a soldier more for the common cause. By in front they remain 12 days of LaLiga Santander, the final of Glass of Rey, the turn of eighth of Champions League, four hypothetical parties of fourth and semifinals, in addition to the longed for final of the tournament.

19 parties of maximum level in which Valverde will not be able to employ always to the same players. Coutinho Will have to show him that still there is time to see him shine like the star that is. A star of the international football with a lot of joys that give to the Barcelona.
