You have to know to your players like trainer and ensure you to take out the best of them". These were the first words that Ronald Koeman​ said on Antoine Griezmann that goes to be key and indisputable in his FC Barcelona this season.

The forward arrived to the Camp Nou does more than a year to be the second sword of Leo Messi, but defrauded in this paper and was not to the height of the expectations that raised. His position in the field has been one of the subjects that more discussion has generated this past campaign. The left band is not done for him and his ideal place is the one of second forward, something that the new Barcelona technician seems to have seen at all more arrive.

Besides, the possible exit of Leo Messi, that has pillado by surprise to all the world, does that the ex rojiblanco was even more important.

When the hero of the first Champions League of the Barcelona gathered with the Frenchman still did not know that the rosarino had decided to leave of the Barça. It can that if already it had known it, the míster would have insisted even more in the fact that it wants to that it was one of the leaders of the team. Without Leo and probably without Luis Suárez, the reality is that 'Grizzy' has to be the big referent of the attack culé to fault of some signing of relumbrón.
