Ernesto Valverde is fully conscious of the challenge that has by in front. It will not be at all easy to equalise the registers of his predecessors in the Barcelona bench. But he has the sufficient confidence as to lead the project. And up to now, forgetting already the Supercopa, the 'Txingurri' has achieved that the staff respect him.
That is almost the first obligation of a trainer when it arrives to a new changing room. And the 'Ace' explains this Friday that is a reality. Valverde Is a near type, has a conversation with the players and does them feel partícipes of the team. Until the acting understand how is managing the technician culé these first parties of the course.
"It is a very near uncle, a person with which can speak , that likes him have a conversation and to the that the footballers respect in all the senses", explains a near source to the changing room to the half quoted. Something that, as it ensures the article, already said in Bilbao and in the own Espanyol does years.
"It is a so simple person that what says you finish fulfilling and at the end delivers minutes as it believes it timely and necessary: all has his important quota of leadership", adds another source mentioned. Claro, Roberto understands that the competition in the centre of the field is fierce, Alcácer recognises that the minutes it is necessary to win them, Vidal assumes the high level of Semedo... All put of his part.
Valverde Is showing a calm face in the press conferences. Optimist, without falling in the defeatism that sometimes floods to the Barcelona fans. Direct, educated and with a very clear idea: keep to the Barcelona in the highest.
In Getafe, rotations
Valverde Has won to the staff with his ideas. Now it has to do it with the rotations. The 'Txingurri' needs that all the players that form part of the team seat important. And what better way that enter changes in the eleven in front of the Getafe. Although neither a radical change as it did Luis Enrique often.
