The Catalan derby has revealed the need to make adjustments, especially in the offensive section, where all the weight should not fall on the figure of Lewandowski and the wingers should also contribute to the team
The tie of the FC Barcelona in front of the RCD Espanyol has allowed to Xavi Hernández detect varied of the problems of operation that would be crossing the Barcelona team. One of them has to see with the offensive section, where the fault of goal follows being present, especially in the case of the extremes, that follow lacking precision of face to the contrary goal, by what is precise to do some adjust.
The signalled in question would be Ansu Fati, Ferran Torres, Ousmane Dembélé and Raphinha, with special attention to the cases of these three last, in which the club comes to make important monetary outlays to ensure the renewal of the French and the signings of the Valencian and the Brazilian that arrived from the Manchester City and the Leeds United, respectively. Until the moment, any has justified the investment of the club with his contribution goleador.
Lewandowski, very above the rest of forwards
Thus, the míster expects an immediate improvement by part of his effective of attack that exert by the bands. Until the moment, Lewandowski has been the forward that better has answered along the season marking 18 goals and a pair of assistances in his 20 presentations dressing the Barcelona T-shirt, figures that contrast clearly with the one of the rest of his mates in the line of attack.
Of the extremes, the best has been Dembélé, but his current registers, five so many and four assistances having played a party more than the Pole, leave in evidence the enormous disparity between the centrodelantero and the effective by the band. By his part, Ansu Fati, that also has contested 21 commitments, only adds three targets and an assistance, only by in front of Raphinha, with two goals and two assistances in 19 presentations.
The another leading of the staff, Memphis Depay, with profile of '9', only has seen action in three meetings and has marked a goal. The injury suffered before the Glass of the World has repercutido strongly in his fault of minutes and already in the market estival was about to to leave to the Juventus. However, there was not agreement with the Italian team, all time that the proposal salarial had not finished for convincing to the Dutch.
