As it comes being usual this season 2018-19 before an important party, Ernesto Valverde carried out some rotations to keep frescos to players that will range in the eleven headline of the following appointment. Nélson Semedo And Clément Lenglet were two of the footballers that remained in the bench, and will be headlines next Tuesday in Lyon.
Proof of this is that the 'Txingurri' does not want that they happen neither a day without exercising . The aim is that his muscles do not relax and can offer the best performance the Tuesday in Champions League, by what so much Semedo like Lenglet exercised during twenty minutes on the lawn of the Camp Nou, this just Saturday after the Barça-Valladolid.
And they did it under the supervision of Juan Antonio Pozanco -more known like Ros-, assuming a small dose of extra work that will help them to show his best level against a very demanding rival as it is it the Olympique of Lyon. The specific work, besides, has to contextualise in the fact that both players have dragged some muscular problems along the last weeks.
Nélson Semedo Has won clearly the game to Sergi Roberto in the titularity of the right side this season 2018-19, whereas Clément Lenglet is the usual couple of Gerard Hammered in the defensive saga, since Umtiti fell lesionado.
Ernesto Valverde hardly will have of two trainings more to prepare the party in front of the Olympique of Lyon, by what has wanted to advance already the work with some of his futures 'headlines' of face to the clash of gone of eighth of final of the Champions League.
