The Barcelona sticks to the places of Champions and is third to ten points of the Atlético. Since 2017 they didn't attain five consecutive victories as a visitors. Koeman still expects for the recovery of Piqué and Ansu, but also wants to concretise signings
The arrival of Ronald Koeman did not translate in immediate results to the term of a difficult season for the FC Barcelona in every aspect. The injuries, the little reliability and scarce alternatives in the bench have been some of the causes of the intermittence in LaLiga, at least until the first part. Although the team still does not attain to convince of the all, has showed a better expensive before arriving to the date 19.
In the last nine parties, the Barça has attained a total of 23 points, a clear mejoría regarding the 14 units in the first 10 days. The change has allowed that the Barcelona stick to the places of Champions League, where occupy the third box with 37 points, to ten of the leader, the Athletic (with a party less) and with one on his nearer perseguidor, the Seville.
From 2017 the Barça did not attain five victories to the thread like visitor, an attainment reached in this edition afterwards to add of to three in front of Valladolid, Huesca, Athletic, Granada and Elche. In spite of the absences by injury, the defence has seen more stable and with fewer errors during each party, partly thanks to the arrival of Araújo, whereas Ter Stegen has transmitted confidence with his cut across timely.
The Barça still has to recover effective
Although there has not been forcefulness in the last results, Messi has showed a better version in the last commitments out of house. The same can say of Busquets, Jordi Alba, Pedri, Of Jong, Griezmann and Dembélé, that do not have desentonado in his recent presentations.
The challenge for Koeman is to keep the rhythm until I Hammered and Ansu can reach his best form and see again action. Besides, the Dutch still keeps the restlessness for concretising some agreement by Eric García or Memphis Depay, although all will depend on what the next president bring in his diary.
