Barça still want to see the best Joao Felix in every game and this Thursday left, as usual, some interesting moments, but it seemed to be insufficient for what Xavi expects from his starting left winger
Joao Félix tried it every time that it could, and wanted to, in his return to the XI of the FC Barcelona, but still like this remained far to be able to give an authoritarian demonstration this Thursday in Salamanca. Very to his style, the Portuguese added good played with other moments in which it happened unobserved, a very negative point if we take into account that had at the front defenders of a very inferior level to which is used to to confront each week.
The extreme returned to the eleven Barcelona headline after his 'punishment' of beginning of year after a closing of 2023 very irregular. It assisted to Ferran for the important 1-1 and surely recovered some chevrons with Xavi of face to the next parties of League, especially with the absence of Raphinha, but also remained clear that the míster has sufficient alternatives after the so much of the Valencian, as well as the entry of Vitor Roque in the second time by the right band.
The Barça needs much more of his extreme more 'jugón'
If we go to an analysis in cold, and still taking into account the assistance, Joao Félix did not stand out in front of a First Federation, further that the own Barça did not have the best of his nights. His quality remained more than checked in the control and the assistance for the so much of Ferran, but also is necessary to mention that it did it in his own field and with a defence of Unionistas practically non-existent in this played.
Joao Félix can follow without place in the XI of the Barça
Besides, it is worthwhile to highlight that the Portuguese left of the party doing some gesture when Xavi decided to replace him in the moment that 'threw' of three fixed of the XI to look for the traced back definite in Reina Sofia. With a duel complicated in the horizon, as it is the visit to the Real Betis, the reality is that the luso smells again to suplencia if the Catalan technician bet by Lamine Yamal in the Villamarín or for giving continuity to the system of four mediocampistas.
