After two months of competition, Ernesto Valverde seems to have found his eleven of confidence for the big parties. The Txingurri was conscious that it was necessary to change the wing series of results that the team was having in LaLiga Santander and in the Champions League, against the Tottenham Hotspur in Wembley, seemed to find the key.

Ousmane Dembélé, that was being one of the big protagonists of the season, went the big sacrificed of the technician extremeño in English earths, giving him gone in to Arthur Melo that no desaprovechó this opportunity. With the Brazilian in the field, Philippe Coutinho advanced his position to play of extreme and the team worked.

In spite of that Dembélé contributed electricity, speed and goal to the group culé, Arthur sacrificed these qualities to contribute control in the centre of the field. The consistency of the game of the team improved exponencialmente by the big capacity of the Brazilian to understand the proposal of football of a Valverde that seems had to bet by him in firm.

In front of Valencia, the Txingurri kept the same eleven that in Wembley, with the only change of Thomas Vermaelen by Clément Lenglet. With the Belgian lesionado, the French went back to the titularity to confront to his ex team and to show that has qualities of leftovers to be one of the big defensive bastions.

The rest of the team, intocable. Ter Stegen Is a fixed under the sticks, as also they are it Jordi Alba and Gerard Hammered in defence. More debatable is Nelson Semedo, that has the hard competition of Sergi Roberto in the right side. In the centre of the field, Arthur seems to have fixed fact beside Ivan Rakitic and Sergio Busquets.

The big novelty in the leading is the one of Philippe Coutinho, that has happened to be the relief of Andrés Iniesta -as it said Robert Fernández, the one who more bet by his signing- to the of Neymar, like left extreme. Beside him, Leo Messi, that keeps on being the general captain of the team, and Luis Suárez that, in spite of that it is not having luck of face to the goal, understands to perfection with the Argentinian and does him better.
