Calendar of FC Barcelona

After falling defeated in LaLiga, the FC Barcelona repeated discontent in Champions, since it could not happen of the tie in front of the Slavia of Prague. The Catalans split like favourites but the Czechs confirmed, this time in the Camp Nou -already warned in the Sinobo Stadium-, that are in crisis, since they follow without offering his usual good game and this is repercutiendo in his results, irregular in a start of course that has done to jump all the alarms.

In the research of solutions to his bad moment the culés have to repair in the tactical disorder that turns them into a too fragile group, that already has carried surprises of several opponents of lower level. With respect to all and taking into account that the tropiezos also had a lot merit of his opponents, it is necessary to signal that the own errors are a ballast that it is necessary soltar to advance in the always demanding fight by the titles.

The firm and solvent team that proposed Ernesto Valverde has undone like an azucarillo, and this that in his first months in the City Condal, to the preparador extremeño accused him to be too conservative. That bet split of a good defence to finish with one of the best attacks of the planet, but this, was with a 4-3-3 classical or in occasions even with the 4-2-3-1, is marked by a dangerous descontrol.

The offensive barcelonista reduces to some chispazos, and the defensive balance is chaotic. In spite of testing to distinct players -with Frenkie of Jong and Arthur does not suffice-, the medullary breaks split after party, what causes that the leading remain reduced to the eternal quality of Leo Messi, to the fogonazos of the worn Luis Suárez and to the sporadic interventions of other protagonists, call Ansu Fati, Antoine Griezmann, Ousmane Dembélé or Carles Pérez.

And the claims of Marc-André ter Stegen are more than justified, because see to the cracks run to backwards begins to brush the drama. They do not occupy well the spaces, does not exist the rapport between footballers and this causes that mount one against was very easy, and that almost always exist numerical inferiority and gaps by all sides. Not even in static is defending well, because a lot of goals have arrived as a result of the combinations that the rivals make in the frontal of the area, a zone that do not cover neither the defenders neither the midfield players.

Valverde And the staff need an urgent talk

The answer to so many doubts has to be shared between the staff and the own Valverde, to the one who more than once has seen dangerously am missing of answers. Or it shouts in front of the fault of decision of his stars or infects of the sopor general, but does not achieve to correct to a team that, or is not executing the guion writing, or interprets a strategy that does not do him work. In any case, the review tactical has left to be a council to turn into an imperante need.
