It is not a secret that Lionel Messi is the offensive leader of the FC Barcelona and that, when it go back to the work with the Barcelona, will follow being 'to the control' of the attack of his, as it has done it in the last years. However, in the two last two friendly of the Barça, in front of the absence of the captain, other players have had to give the face... And it is something that already ilusiona to the culés, although without doubts it will be necessary to expect to the next parties to see how follow developing.

In the friendly party in front of the Stuttgart, like part of the pre-season 2021-2022, Memphis Depay and Antoine Griezmann were headlines and his deployment, combinations and some complicity in the field did not happen unobserved, neither for Ronald Koeman neither for the barcelonismo, that begins to thrill with what both contribute in the field and the ease that showed to associate .

In the second so much of the afternoon, went the best proof. Memphis Sent a phenomenal pass to Griezmann, the one who from the background line put the balloon so that Yusuf Demir denifiera to pleasure in front of Fabian Bredlow to première finally like goleador Barcelona. In the rest of the clash, the Dutch and French kept very incisive, participatory and looking for at all times increase the advantage in the electronic.

It is a connection that surprises and ilusiona. It fits to remember that they carry very little time in the trainings of the blaugrana (little less than two weeks) but the adaptation of both has been phenomenal. By a part, Depay enjoys of his first commitments like player of the Barça and has adapted to perfection, whereas a discussed Griezmann has given a lesson of professionalism and, in spite of being wrapped in a sinfín of rumours, gives proof of his quality in the field.

The 'Principito' has not premièred like goleador still, but has showed attentive, collaborating in the creation of game and supporting in the offensive. It was key in the second and third so much of the Barcelona and this speaks of the intention that has to leave to a side the rumours and critical that lastra and give the best of yes to help to the Barça.

With the French, nevertheless, follows opened the door to an exit. It is a subject extradeportivo, in any case. His wage (of apróximadamente 40 gross millions) and the money that subtracts for amortising of his traspaso plant it in the door of exit, but in the FC Barcelona know that it is an impossible operation and everything aims to that will finish remaining in the Camp Nou. If it is like this, already it is doing sufficient merits to be headline in the start of the campaign.

Koeman elogia To Memphis and Griezmann

The Barcelona trainer, Ronald Koeman, spoke on the big connection of his two forwards in the field, those who had total freedom to throw to run his talent. After the party, the Dutch commented that "his connection [Depay] with Antoine is very good and this gives us a lot. They are two players that can play in different positions in the attack. We go to have competition".
