The defence, the attack, the injuries, the difficulties to win like vistante and the state anímico of the staff are some of the subjects to which Xavi Hernández has to find a timely answer for what subtracts of the season that already has initiated.

With Xavi already in the City Condal to initiate his first cycle like trainer of the FC Barcelona, are varied the subjects for attending in the middle of a difficult season in which the one of Tarrasa already is the third technician that parades by the Barcelona bench; the fans and the directive expect that it was the last by the course.

The defence and the attack

The last presentation of the Barça with Sergi Barjuán to the control seemed to indicate an improvement. However, the defence did waters once again in his visit to Balaídos. What seemed a comfortable Barcelona victory by 0-3 finished in a bitter tie, with the Celtic like the third team that marks him a trio of goals to the blaugranas after the Bayern and the Benfica.

Also the section goleador has seen seriously affected. Of the 16 commitments contested up to now, five have finished without a goal in favour: Cádiz, Athletic, Bayern, Ray and Benfica. And no only it is due to the fault of effectiveness, but also to the scarce occasions of goal generated.

 

Defend the house and impose was

In the parties that have had to the Camp Nou like stage, the Barcelona has left seven points of 21 possible; of which four, by LaLiga, lost in the presentations in front of the Granada and the Alavés. Although perhaps the most remembered have been the defeat in the Classical.

Out of house, the panorama is even worse. The Barcelona do not know the victory like visitor in LaLiga in what it goes of season, to the equal that the Espanyol, Getafe, Raise and Villarreal. Until the moment, the culés alone have obtained three units of the 15 contested out of Barcelona.

The injuries and the state anímico

Xavi Hernández also will have to suffer some headaches, as already they did it his predecessors. The elder of them roots in the injuries. The ex midfield player will receive a staff with 11 effective in the infirmary. The majority of the injuries have been muscular.

The psychological section of the staff also requires special attention: the Barcelona hardly can trace back an adverse marker and his rivals are used to to mark first, what has caused discussions airadas between the own mates of team in front of the frustration.

 

The 'holy cows' and the quarry

In spite of that varied of the active players of the Barça coincided with Xavi in his stage like player, will be precise to take decisions. Jordi Alba and Sergi Roberto do not live his best stage. Busquets, by his part, requires more support, and in the case of Hammered, is possible that have to be relegado to the bench.

It is precise also find to a leader in front of the course of Lionel Messi. Until the moment, any of the footballers of the staff has exerted a voice of control on the field like the Argentinian or previously other figures like Carles Puyol, Andrés Iniesta or the own Xavi, now trainer.

On the other hand, it has to dosificar the disposal of the emergent talents in the club and avoid overload that they comport to injuries with prolonged drops, as it has occurred in the case of Pedri González, the one who with more than 70 parties on suffered an injury that still has him offside.
