Calendar of FC Barcelona

The Barcelona achieved to win by the minimum to Huesca (0-1) and to Athletic (2-3), showing performances that left doubts on the organisation of the Catalan square in defence, and sometimes a 'want to and can not' in attack. And it is that they generated sufficient occasions to sentence the parties a lot before.

Since it gave beginning the present season and in spite of being the team more goleador of the championship, the directed by Ronald Koeman are not very hit in concretising the occasions of goal in front of his rivals. In the party in front of the Huesca, shot until in 20 occasions, seven of them to goal. Leo Messi, Dembélé and Pedri González had the opportunity to attain the goal.

The see how the Barça does not finish to sentence the parties, but neither are able to take advantage of all the occasions that generate , begins to go back a constant. With the exit of Luis Suárez in summer puts in evidence that the culés require to a forward goleador, or at least to somebody that do to go up the level of effectiveness up.

Opportunities thrown to the rubbish

The last party contested in the Camp Nou against the Eibar (1-1) arrived to lose a lot of opportunities of importance. Martin Braithwaite failed a penalti, marked a goal invalidated by offside and had another so much in his boots that could not concretise. Finally, it was Dembélé the one who attained to complete the goal.

During the duel of the Barcelona against the Real Sociedad, which closed with the marker in favour of group culé (2-1), commitment that could be of the best of the season of the Catalan square up to now, created also several occasions of goal. Griezmann Commanded a balloon to the stick after dribbling to Remiro and failed an incomprehensible occasion to two metres of the line.

It does some weeks, many will remember the penalti failed by Messi in the duel against Valencia (2-2), that finished in goal, as well as also the four clear occasions of Antoine against the Real Betis (5-2). Against the Sportive Alavés (1-1) also forgave too much. Ansu Fati, Leo Messi, Pjanic or Sergiño Dest and in Cádiz (2-1) arrived to see sufficient occasions as, at least, empatar. Dest And Pjanic had an occasion of the goal in his boots during the final minutes.

In the Colisum Alfonso Pérez (1-0, against the Getafe) did two sticks: Messi and Djené. Griezmann Failed a hand manually with the rival goalkeeper. The culés also fell in the same against the Seville (1-1) ,leaving escape the victory by the fault of puntería. Of Jong had a finish clear that finished in corner. Simultaneously, Trincao could be the hero during a hand manually with Bono in the last minutes.

Uncomfortable statistics

In what it goes of LaLiga, the Barcelona has contested 17 meetings to date in which they have marked 33 goals, the double that the conceded. The ratio current is of 1,9 goals by party contested, whereas the clear occasions by party are of 3,4. The conversion of goal is of 14%. But the worrisome is that in the last four years did not go down of 20%.

At present, the directed by Ronald Koeman shoot 13 times of average by party and fail two clear occasions each 90 minutes. Also they have arrived to fail three penaltis and the ball has finished against one of the sticks nine times. It costs a lot sentence the parties and the team is noticing more than what foresaw the exit of Luis Suárez, the one who at present does life in the Athletic Madrid.
