Ronald Koeman, to the so much of this, has recalcado that it would adapt to the financial possibilities that the club can offer him, in matter of new incorporations, but, to his time, has commented that there are positions in which it needs more competition, given the contrast of level that exists between headlines and acting.

One of these positions that has mentioned the Dutch technician is, definitely, the left side, a part of the field that has a good being a latent headache for the Barcelona. In said demarcation, the notorious difference between the goodnesses that offer Jordi Alba and Junior Firpo, headline and acting, respectively, is increasingly worrisome.

In the same, Firpo started like headline and although it saw him voluntarioso regarding what went the physical deployment, did not concretise any played of danger, in a party that was atascado until almost his final. Of equal form, in defensive matter, the ex Real Betis suffered to detain to Álvaro and even, the goal of the picture vallecano arrived by his band.

Jordi Alba, by his part, substituted to the dominican footballer almost to the minute 70 and the difference of performance was quite notorious.
