The new lethal pair of the Barça that aims to conquer Europe

There is a hope in the horizon. The panorama of the FC Barcelona the past month of August did not seem to improve, but the Barcelona group has harvested big results, more than which could expect then. The traced back in front of the Seville in semifinals of Glass of the King is the most punctual example. It did years that the Camp Nou did not vibrate with so much euphoria by a triumph of such magnitude. In spite of that LaLiga results a so much far and have a foot and half out of Champions, there are reasons for ilusionarse of face to the future.

By a part, footballers like Pedri, Ronald Araujo, Mingueza and, more recently, Ilaix Moriba, have burst into in the Catalan group, offering like this a new illusion to the barcelonismo that sees how his legends have stepped to the side. By another, there are players that have stepped forward after disappointing in his first campaigns with the team. These have resulted keys in the achievement of triumphs of the team in the middle of a álgido moment.

Lethal pair

The clearest examples of this last group are Frenkie of Jong and Ousmane Dembélé. Both are of the costliest signings in the history of the Barcelona and, until this season, had not justified his price in field. The Dutch midfield player cost 86 million euros, whereas the French extreme, that arrived to cover the absence of Neymar Jr, cost 135. Ronald Koeman has commissioned to take out the best version of these footballers.

Giving him some freedom of movement to the ex player of the Ajax, Koeman has generated that have the capacity to incorporate to the attack and step the contrary area. It gives balance and control to the game of the Barça, but also verticality. Up to now it has annotated six goals and has delivered six assistances in what it goes of season. Besides, his work is defence has been indispensable. By his part, Dembélé is having the regularity that had not had in his three first campaigns. The injuries have kept to the margin and has been indisputable in the diagram of Koeman. It offers a big performance by right, left or of offensive reference. The only that could him recriminar is that his figures are not more been bulky: it accumulates eight goals and four assistances.

Brilliant future

If the big moment of the French and the Dutch prolongs , both outline to be the leaders of the Barça in the future. Both are 23 years old and, although in the case of the Frenchman many had lost him the faith, is undoubted that with his physical and technical characteristics can become one of the best of the world. Besides, both understand every time better. They share the right flank when Koeman bet by the 4-3-3 and already have established the automatisms to find between them with the round to his feet. Individually they are growing, and also in community, and his performance improves in each week that passes.
