Andrés Iniesta has showed during the pre-season, and in the gone of the Supercopa of Spain against the Real Madrid, that does not find to the necessary level as to keep on being headline in the FC Barcelona. It arrives the hour to bet by Sergi Roberto

Calendar of FC Barcelona

To each week that happens, remains clearer that Andrés Iniesta no longer is able to assume the role of creation and distribution of game that had antaño, without desequilibrar neither the first line of rival pressure. Fortunately, with Sergio Busquets and Rakitic to good level the Barcelona has ensured some provision in the half field, to fault of a third component that misses .

André Gomes, Denis Suárez, Rafinha Alcántara and Burn Turan have not attained to fill the enormous gap that leaves Andrés Iniesta when it is not available to be ranged, or simply when it is not to the one hundred by one hundred on the lawn. To his 33 years, the one of Fuentealbilla follows shining by forced marches like a "Supernova" to which already remains him very little light that give in the international football.

It could turn off completely this next campaign, and in fact already gave samples of this so much in the pre-season 2017 like this past Sunday, in the gone of the Supercopa of Spain against the Real Madrid. It is thus Ernesto Valverde would have to use him from now more as an effective of luxury for the bench, as it did Luis Enrique with Xavi Hernández in the season of the triplete 2014-15.

The question is that, after the arrival of Paulinho and further that it also can land Coutinho this same week, Sergi Roberto has won with grow to have of an opportunity of gold in the turn of the Supercopa of Spain in the Bernabéu: the one to consolidate finally in the titularity occupying the place of left interior that at present occupies Iniesta.

Sergi Roberto already smells to title

Sergi Roberto is able to act practically in any position of the field, but the places of interior are in which better can explode his technical qualities, of vision of game and arrival to the contrary area. Also it is an excellent recuperador of balloons and, as Iniesta, is able to handle the times and know when brake or accelerate the game.

To base of minutes and opportunities of game from the start, is possible that Sergi Roberto go back to explode by enésima time, in this occasion to consolidate like midfield player title. A half field Busquets-Rakitic-Roberto does not sound at all badly. It will be missing to see what thinks Valverde.
