The 'MSDC' heats engines to assault the RDCE Stadium

The FC Barcelona confronts against the RCD Espanyol this Saturday with drops quite important in the list of summoned. Some of them are in defence, as Sergi Roberto or Samuel Umtiti, but others affect to the offensive plot, as they are the ones of Arthur Melo and Malcom. Ernesto Valverde will have to improvise to cover these drops.

Especially it concerns the drop of Arthur for which explained for the party but that finally will not be able to be available. The logical idea to relieve him in the team is that Arturo Vidal assume the role of the Brazilian. In spite of being footballers very distinct, the Chilean is in very good state of form and can contribute harp, pressure and arrival to the area.

Nevertheless, the barcelonismo does not have to avoid fantasize with seeing again in action on the terrain of game of the RCDE Stadium to the 'MSDC' formed by Leo Messi, Luis Suárez, Ousmane Dembélé and Philippe Coutinho. In fact, the four have coincided more than once and have showed that they can become lethal.

Options to see to the 'MSDC'

To see them together, would have to happen two things. The first would be that Ernesto Valverde decided to bet by Philippe Coutinho in the position of left interior that, in fact, was the main idea of Robert Fernández when it decided ficharle. In this case, there would be gap for three forwards, that would be the Uruguayan, the Argentinian and the French.

The second stage that can give to see beside the póker of cracks of the FC Barcelona is a change of system. Specifically, the 4-2-3-1 that Ernesto Valverde already had used in the Athletic Club and that also put in practice in the second time of the duel of the Supercopa of Spain in front of the Seville of this same season.

In this case, Sergio Busquets and Ivan Rakitic planted in the double pivote and left to the 'MSDC' by in front. Philippe Coutinho acted like left extreme, Ousmane Dembélé like right extreme, Leo Messi of mediapunta and Luis Suárez like reference. All understood very well and, although it was complicated that they go back to coincide like headlines, showed that they are effective.
