The FC Barcelonto crosses a moment delicate to sportive level and Ronald Koeman is the first distinguished, because the image that has given, with his approaches, alignments and the -non-existent- capacity of reaction with his changes, has 'tired' to the directors and to all the barcelonismo. The Dutch, according to the last informations, is living his last days to the control of the Barcelona bench and will be destituido in brief, but the reality is that the one of Zaandam is not the only problem that has the Barça. And this also is necessary to recognise it.
There are players that are to years light of his best level and much more far of what needs a Barça 'under construction'. The of Luuk of Jong is not a surprise: further of his goal in front of the Raise (in a party in which it also was disappeared), little more has done since you saw the elastic Barcelona. The Dutch failed everything in front of the Benfica, even what is impossible to fail and left clear that in normal conditions, would be the last option for a Dutch. As it was it in the Seville with Julen Lopetegui.
The true is that, although it has been the one who has carried the majority of the criticisms, was not the only that remained 'sentenced' after the crash in front of the 'eagles' of the past Wednesday. There are two names more than it is necessary to analyse carefully: Eric García and Sergi Roberto; that lived a night, as always, with zero tarpaulin and too many errors, that this time, besides, were vital for the group directed by Ronald Koeman. To this level, without place to doubts, are not to be headlines in the Barça (but probably will keep on being it).
Beginning with the defender, that 'returned' home this summer, but that has remained portrayed in the majority of the times that has defended the elastic Barcelona. The first goal of the Benfica was starred by a his unforgivable error that a very intelligent Darwin Nuñez did not forgive. It began by the right and shortly after Ronald Araújo the 'replaced' because it was a coladero. For more satisfy, saw the second yellow in the last minutes of party and left to a Barça shattered with ten players. A new night to forget (that it begins to be habit).
Sergi Roberto, from bad to worse... And ready to renew
The case of Sergi Roberto is very complicated... Impossible to describe. The Barcelona captain is one 'machine' to lose balloons and, further of his goals in the first parties of the season, has gone from bad to worse. It does not stand out neither like right side, much less like carrilero. In front of the Benfica had zero offensive contribution, further of a clear occasion, with a finish from the second stick in which Grimaldo finished forcing a corner.
In the meantime, in the club prepare his renewal by two years more. A decision that is not intelligible to sportive level, because Sergi is a player that carries long without contributing to the team as it is had to. In front of the Benfica remained portrayed directly, but this is not more than a reflection of what has been his season like culé.
