The two great sentenced of Xavi Hernández in the Barça

The final stretch of the season is arriving and the FC Barcelona is finish with results very irregular and the feeling that it is repeating the same situation of the past year, when in the bench was Ronald Koeman. With Xavi Hernández the Barcelona team also has gone in a Russian mountain and, except the months of February and March, have left the same image that before.

Between so much, the trainer egarense has 'improved' the staff and left backwards the players with which does not explain, that are some varied. Xavi has been very clear in what want to and this has included a purification 'indirect' of the staff. In the last weeks has seen how has bet whenever it has been able to by his men of confidence and has 'excluded' to the descartes.

There are two players whose cases are more worrisome that the rest. Riqui Puig and Martin Braithwaite have erased of the map and, in summary, Xavi does not have they. Between both, from the arrival of the trainer of Terrassa in November, have accumulated 220 minutes of action, being the Danish forward the more 'prejudiced' by the technician.

The one of Matadepera is a fixed of the bench and to this height costs to understand how has not asked to cries his exit of the Camp Nou. It goes by his enésima season 'in white' and without a development in his career, losing the opportunity to look for a call of Luis Enrique for the selection. To his 22 years sees his career 'happen' of bench in bench, having several teams that yes would take him in account.

It criticised a lot to Koeman because never it used it, but with Xavi the situation has not changed. From the month of November, only has played 198 minutes and, except the party against the Mallorca, in all has split like acting. It annotated a goal against the Osasuna (4-0 for the culés) and in the defeat against the Real Betis played 54 minutes... The 'highlights' of a Riqui Puig that it does not go in in the plans of the trainer culé.

Braithwaite, without minutes

The case of Martin Braithwaite is even worse. From his return after injury has disappeared almost completely, although in the start of season with Ronald Koeman played 226 minutes (90' against the Real Sociedad, 62' in front of the Athletic of Bilbao and 74' in front of the Getafe). With Xavi has played only 22 minutes, ten vs Osasuna and other twelve in Glass of the King in front of the Athletic of Bilbao.

The Danish has erased of the map and the signings of winter have left it in the bench. It is more than likely that leave in the summer, but the Barça will have big problems to achieve a good offer because it has not had opportunity of revalorizarse of face to the month of July.
