Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona attained this Tuesday another victory in LaLiga in the Camp Nou, but against the Villarreal evidenciaron new problems in the forward. This time, the unpleasant protagonist of the day was not Antoine Griezmann, but Leo Messi turned into news by a new injury and Luis Suárez by a bad performance against the Villarreal, in a duel in which it reappeared with good feelings Ousmane Dembélé.

The front of attack of the Barcelona group is went down the lupa, and the true is that the majority of his problems are common. The physical problems that have azotado to this plot in concrete do that the planning have remained very 'touched' in the initial stretch of the campaign, in which, besides, the collective performance is not accompanying, by what the tropiezos see much more to eyes of the public.

The tips barcelonistas are not fine because there is varied that are in his individual 'pre-season', since there is few that have completed the necessary preparation to confront to the official commitments of the course. By ones or other reasons, all have seen affected by setbacks that now have repercussion in the path of the team, and that have to separate what before to put of full in the fight by the titles.

By his specific weight in the changing room and in the project, the most important case is the one of Messi, so fragile in the last months like lacking of shooting. On 2 July it contested his last party in the Glass America, on 5 August returned and produced a mishap in the sóleo of his right leg, that carried him to extremar the cautions and to have patience to go back. Further of the trainings in solitary, the one of Rosario needs more kilometres in his legs to take rhythm of competition and reencontrarse with his best state of form, something that share some of his mates.

Suárez and Dembélé arrived before that the Argentinian, but his progression saw cut in the first day liguera. More muscular ailments and more recoveries in solitary, by what the season, for them, recently finish to begin. The first month it is necessary to happen it between altibajos, until the body accustom to the efforts and attain to take regularity, and that's why the one of Jump flojea after his big return in front of the Real Betis -with doublet- and the one of Vernon will have to expect to check how goes him in the next days.

In case these circumstances did not go already sufficiently complicated, it is necessary to add to Griezmann, Ansu Fati and Carles Pérez, in full phase of adaptation. The first because so much in the Athletic of Madrid as in the selection has a style of distinct game and a clear-cut position, and the others two because the jump of the quarry to the first team is not, for nothing, simple. The three are fulfilling what can, but need help that could take in arriving.

The Barça will have to expect to arrive to his best level

Without going in in debates on if the official pre-season was ideal, the true is that the Barça will have to expect so that his forwards go back to shine, since in the middle of the obligations of the campaign have to have the patience and necessary responsibility to prioritise his tuned and invest the growth that little by little will go having in the results of the team. Arrived to this point, touches to assume the raw reality, and work for no descolgarse on the way to the trophies, at the end, the big aim of all the changing room.
