The plan of Valverde works: Without rotations after a stop

After some months of rest and with the turn of the competitions of clubs, are not few the big teams that fear to the famous days of selections. The exodus of international puts in risk his performance in the domestic competitions, and the feared 'Virus FIFA' does not remain only in the lesionados.

With seasons so long and loaded of parties, is usual that one of the strategies are the rotations, to keep to the cool players and to all enchufados to the activity of the championship. But in the FC Barcelona is not being like this, in particular in the days after the stops, where does even more notorious the tiredness and the accumulation of minutes that the cracks are used to to carry in his legs.

Ernesto Valverde has opted in what it goes of course for keeping to his block title in the turn of the three stops contested until the moment, and his statistical are practically intachables. Until 10 footballers have repeated presence against Espanyol, Athletic and Leganés, with two victories and a tie like guarantee.

Although it has rotado in other occasions, in the eleven initial hardly there have been changes. Ter Stegen, Semedo, Hammered, Umtti, Alba, Busquets, Rakitic, Iniesta, Messi and Suárez have started in the three meetings, and only Deulofeu, André Gomes and Paco Alcácer have been the pieces moved from the Camp Nou to Butarque going through Wanda Metropolitan.

Remarkable changes

The strategy of Valverde contrasts with which does a year presented Luis Enrique, more adherent to revolutionise his alignments to the turn of the international commitments. Only five players repeated after the three stops with the Asturian, and three of them were of the considered acting. Mascherano, Digne, Busquets, Burn and Neymar were against Alavés, Sportive and Málaga, and by the way flew five points by the defeat against the vitorianos and the tie against the Andalusians, both home.

Any of the two notebooks ensures to arrive in full form to the final stretch of the season, but for the moment the one of the Txingurri is giving better results. The advantage at the head of the classification like this testifies it, and his rotations are used to to see more from the field that from the eleven initial, something that can check with Andrés Iniesta. With everything, will be the table the one who command, and only will judge positively his method if it continues in the highest after the day 38. It is in way.
