The new paper of Messi in the Barça 2014-15

So much "MD" like the newspaper "Sport" stand out this Friday in his digital versions that Luis Enrique could revolutionise the classical 4-3-3 of the FC Barcelona with Leo Messi of "false nine" that the team has been using with assiduity from the season 2008-09 with the promotion of Pep Guardiola like trainer, and even before the arrival of the of Santpedor with Frank Rijkaard and his Messi-Eto'or-Ronaldinho in attack. In the period of the Dutch, however, Messi was used to to act in right band being a weapon of desborde continuous and an assistant of luxury for Eto'or and the midfield players of second line, like Deco, Xavi and Iniesta.

Now, Luis Enrique could explode the version of assistant of "The Flea" varying his position of "false nine" -in which it has shined to level goleador from the season 2008-09- planting him in other entramados tactical more secondary regarding statistical leadership, but can that more useful for the needs of the team. The Asturian technician could delay the position of the Argentinian planting him in the position of mediapunta, by in front of Iniesta or Rakitic and by behind Neymar and Luis Suárez, that would act like tips of the team. Another of the options would be that it played again in the position of mediapunta, but in a 4-3-1-2 with two lines of midfield players behind him: one of containment (Mascherano-Busquets) and another of creation (Iniesta or Rakitic).

Finally, the last possibility would be to go back to the origins of Leo Messi in the Barça and plant him in the right band, from where dazzled desbordando, marking goals and delivering assistances, but a place in which his numbers and statistics were not so impressive like the harvested exerting the paper of "false nine". In any case, Luis Enrique already left clear during the past press conference of the Wednesday that all the variants are here and can use, by what probably the Barça do not encircle to a fixed tactical drawing but it will go rotando the positions of the players to explode his qualities and, especially, do much more unpredictable to the team.

Leo Messi has marked 312 goals and delivered 111 assistances from the season 2008-09 in the FC Barcelona, and the fact that these figures can see reduced in the future does not have why mellar the performance of the team, but the effect could be the contrary. Precisely one of the most used criticisms lately against the Barça by part of the fans culé is the Messi-dependency. This could change this next season without need that the game and the capacities of the group diminish. In a place more creator and less striker (for this has fichado to Luis Suárez), perhaps Leo Messi do not see forced to mark in each party and can go back to shine. And the Barça, with him.
