Xavi works to prevent Lamine from having the same problems as Pedri and Ansu

Lamine Yamal has been, with difference, the feeling of the FC Barcelona in the beginning of the 2023/24. Further of the positive impact of the Joaos in the eleven culé, the juvenile of 16 years has put to the fans and the Catalan press in the pocket to base of magic and personality when ingresa to the field. In this sense, Xavi Hernández begins to win some criticism by his management of the minutes of the youngster, but the egarense has very clear his leaf of route with the canterano.

As first factor of weight, Xavi takes the example of Ansu Fati and Pedri regarding the requirement of the European calendar. For the one of Bisau, the ordeal of injuries between 2020 and 2022 began when the extreme grieve fulfilled the 17 years and recently now seems to go back to his best version in England. Regarding the of Tegueste, the enormous wear suffered in 2021, year in that it played it everything with the Barça and the Selection, has happened him bill in the last months, with continuous physical relapses that have mermado his performance. With Lamine, Xavi does not want to repeat these stages.

Xavi will not risk giving to Lamine more minutes of the necessary

When treating of a player of 16 years, is logical to think in dosificar the physical load of the canterano considering that, physically, still does not have the condition that requires a footballer of elite to contest more than 40 parties in a season. Besides, the explosividad of Yamal by the band turn him into easy white for some entrance malintencionada, without having the factor field, something that the Barça already has suffered this season in front of Getafe and Mallorca, having to lidiar with terrains abused on purpose to brake the game culé.

Thus, it is normal to think that Xavi will follow dosificando the minutes of the extreme of the same form in which it comes it doing in the last weeks. It will alternate titularities with performances from the bench where will not play more than half hour, according to the needs of the team. The of Lamine is an exceptional case that deserves a very particular attention, as very few prodigios have showed similar precocity in the world-wide elite. Only for quoting an example, Leo Messi was next to fulfil the 18 years when it debuted with the first team.

The management of changing room, another key appearance for the evolution of Lamine

On the other hand, Xavi knows that it does not have to neglect to his others leading for centring in the explosion of Lamine Yamal. This season, the Barça has a very complete forward, with a potential goleador remarkable that depends, in good measure, of the intelligent management of minutes. The Barça has taken out benefit of the hit of Raphinha and Ferran Torres in this start of season, something that the technical body will procure to keep of here to June to go to by all the titles.

If, for example, the Brazilian or the Valencian feel displaced by Lamine, this can change, generating a bad tuning in the changing room and, of course, inside the field. From here that Xavi have clear how go giving minutes to each one of his forwards, rotando when it was necessary rotar so that all have weight inside the staff. Today, only Lewandowski is intocable in the attack culé and, still like this, had to rest the Wednesday in Mallorca.
