The alignment of the Barça 2018-19 with Dembélé like big 'signing'

Once known that Antoine Griezmann no fichará by the FC Barcelona, has produced a change of plans in the diary culé. From now the aim will be to reinforce especially the centre of the field, and in the forward the role that had to assume Griezmann will be relegado to Ousmane Dembélé, the young promise of 21 years in which the FC Barcelona has deposited big hopes.

Dembélé Will split initially like titling in the eleven 'type' of the Barça 2018-19, accompanying to Leo Messi and Luis Suárez in the offensive plane and with Philippe Coutinho occupying the position of Andrés Iniesta in the left interior. Rakitic And Busquets will assume the same paper that this campaign like double pivote of containment, although the Croat will be able to follow deploying in attack when it consider it necessary.

In defence, more than the same: Sergi Roberto, Umtiti, Hammered and Jordi Alba will be the four headlines, although Nélson Semedo will compete for snatching the titularity to Sergi Roberto in the right side. With Ter Stegen and Cillessen like insurances of life in the goal, the FC Barcelona will go back to have of an able alignment to win to any team of the world, with alternatives in the bench like Paulinho, the own Semedo and Clément Lenglet and Arthur Melo if they finish arriving this summer.

A staff of guarantees in which it expects that Dembélé step advance. It is possible, even, that Valverde change slightly the strategy to happen to play with a 4-3-3 instead of with a 4-4-2. Of this way, with Dembélé of pure extreme, the FC Barcelona could take advantage of more the potential of the French in the dribbling, the driving and the vision of game.

Dembélé, the big bet of the Barça

It expects besides that, with the step of the time, go improving his puntería and offer to the Barça a contingent of goals from among 15 and 20 by season, for of this way remove responsibilities to Leo Messi and Luis Suárez, those who are used to to carry almost all the offensive weight of the team.

After the refusal of Griezmann, the big bet of the FC Barcelona will be Ousmane Dembélé. It will be able to complete the whole pre-season with the Barça, something that did not do the past year, and besides will follow working to improve his physicist and not suffering injuries like which has suffered in the last months.

With Dembelé cool and motivated, the FC Barcelona can be fearsome if the French fulfils the expectations. And with the rest of 'cracks' active, will not do fault a lot of retouchings in the staff to see to the culés again in the highest of the Champions League.
