The reason by which Philippe Coutinho has gone down his performance

Philippe Coutinho is not at all fine in the last parties that has contested with the FC Barcelona. In fact, along the present season, has not achieved to take out to relucir this level with which marvelled to the barcelonismo when it arrived to the Camp Nou does roughly a year. There is a reason more than likely that explain this change of performance.

In 2018, the Brazilian was fichado like relief generacional of Andrés Iniesta in the position of left interior. It is true that arrived with the money of Neymar, but the destined man to relieve to the current player of Paris Saint-Germain in the place of left-handed extreme was not Coutinho, but it was Ousmane Dembélé.

The idea of Roberto Fernández when it brought him pertinent of the Liverpool was that it played in the centre of the field, helping to the rest of players to generate game with the field of face. Like this it did it in his first season and shined with own light, evidenciando that the 160 millions that cost were very paid.

Nevertheless, the things began to change in the present season. The initial irregularity of Ousmane Dembélé did that Ernesto Valverde opted for advancing the position of Coutinho so that Arthur went in in the centre of the field, but the new position of the carioca did not favour for nothing his style of game.

With the drop of Arthur, opens a new possibility for Coutinho

Recently the medical services determined that Arthur will be of drop a month by fault of a muscular injury. With Ousmane Dembélé already recovered, seems impossible that the French do not recover his place in the forward, by what the position of Philippe Coutinho could go back to delay in the medullary.

Ernesto Valverde already said recently in the press conference that contemplated said possibility, although always taking into account the presence of Carles Aleñá and of Arturo Vidal. If finally it gives him the opportunity to the Brazilian to go back to the centre of the field, will have the possibility to confirm him to the Txingurri that, if it plays in his position, can give him a lot to the team.
