It calls the attention that the FC Barcelona, without the presence of Leo Messi in the last four parties, have achieved to keep the excelsa half goleadora that accumulates this season 2018-19. During the first 12 meetings of the campaign, Leo Messi annotated 12 goals and, with him in the field, the Barça accumulated an average of 2,75 goals by party.
Well, this same statistics has kept invariable in the last four meetings, in which it has not been present Leo Messi by injury. In these parties in front of Inter (2-0), Real Madrid (5-1), Cultural Leonese (0-1) and Ray Vallecano (2-3), the FC Barcelona has kept the statistics of 2,75 goals by party with Luis Suárez stellar, author of five of the targets.
The logic says that the FC Barcelona would have to have lost potential goleador without his best realizador of the season, and the considered by many like the best footballer of the planet. However, and although the calendar has been demanding with the meetings in front of Inter of Milan in Champions League and Real Madrid in the Camp Nou, the ones of Valverde have known to solve the ballot.
Another interesting data says us that, during the 12 parties played by the FC Barcelona with Leo Messi in the terrain of game, a total of eight players culés participated with, at least, a goal: Gerard Hammered (2), Dembélé (5), Coutinho (4), Suárez (4), Rakitic (3), Alba, Munir and Rafinha.
In the four crashes without 'The Flea', fits to signal that the figure is very alike, since they are seven the players that have seen goal: Luis Suárez (5), Coutinho, Rafinha, Lenglet, Dembélé, Arturo Vidal and Jordi Alba, taking a step forward to help to the team in this sense.
Where has to improve the Barça is in defence
The problem of the FC Barcelona this season 2018-19, therefore, remains clear that is not the gunpowder of face to goal, but rather the defensive appearance. In spite of the injuries of Samuel Umtiti and Thomas Vermaelen, the culés are forced to improve in this field if they wish to aspire to all the titles this campaign, and especially to the Champions League and LaLiga Santander.
