Leo Messi, captain of the FC Barcelona, demanded explanations to Mateu Lahoz after the expulsion of Ousmane Dembélé, and did it with a curious form. The Argentinian remembered him that the Frenchman does not know to speak Spanish

At all it could do to avoid that Mateu Lahoz expelled to Ronald Araújo, first, and afterwards to Ousmane Dembélé during the last minutes of the FC Barcelona-Seville. The Valencian referee walked with the whistle 'hot' from the beginning of the crash, and the fact that Dembélé said him "very bad, are very bad" so only increased his bad humour.

It can not say, however, that Leo Messi and Gerard Hammered did not try to convince him that it had made a mistake. "Very bad, has said very bad", commented in vain the central Catalan, whereas the Argentinian star surprised with a curious reminder that can seem until comic. "What said you? If it does not know to speak! It does not know to speak!", it protested the '10' to the referee.

Of course Leo Messi referred to the a lot of problems that has Dembélé to express in Spanish, something that also remembered Ernesto Valverde when they asked after him it sucedido in the mixed zone of the Camp Nou. "I do not think that it have said him a very long sentence", kidded the 'Txingurri'. "It is difficult to take him out words to Ousmane in Spanish".

It was as it was, the question is that Dembélé enfiló quickly the way to the changing rooms when seeing the red card, conscious that the thing could worsen if it followed protesting. For the moment, the most likely is that it lose the party against the Eibar and the Classical of the Camp Nou against the Real Madrid, the next 26 October. Still there is not official sanction, but the precedents induce to this.

The Barça has alternatives to Dembélé

To lose both parties, Ernesto Valverde will plant in the eleven headline to Antoine Griezmann beside Leo Messi and Luis Suárez, with Ansu Fati and Carles Pérez like alternatives. The FC Barcelona has the luck to have very very covered the front of attack, and this having that this past summer did not arrive finally Neymar Jr, whose signing is not descartado for 2020.

Dembélé, this yes, has to follow maturing and darse that protests like the ones of the past Sunday will not help him in at all to have continuity. It completed a big performance with the Barça, but now will have to remain without playing two parties before going back to marvel. It is a player with a quality tremenda, but his mentality sometimes loses him. If it improves this and purchases a greater physical fortress, to the Barça will have touched him the lottery.
