Dull and with many doubts: The players named after Barça-Betis

The FC Barcelona of Xavi is still far to find his best version and be an able team of enamorar with his game, that is one of the aims that has traced the trainer egarense from his arrival. It needs time, this is true, but the problem is that there is not it. The clock is against of the Barça and the load of parties -decisive all- does not help to a process of reconstruction. The party of this weekend, against the Real Betis, has been a step backwards for the culés and a big hit anímico for a Barcelona picture that had won his two previous clashes in LaLiga, with 'luck', good game or as it seem, but with victories.

Precisely the positive results had helped to 'move away' the ghosts that surrounded to the Barça. As if the 'effect Xavi' was immediate, but a new bathroom of reality aims that, perhaps, it is necessary replantear the aims and go down the expectations. The problems of the Barcelona are real and need to work, by what is unlikely that, in spite of the impetus of the of Terrassa and his good intentions, can solve in a month or two. It is impossible. Contra the Betis, the history was the same of always: the Barça jumped comfortable, with occasions and security, but in front of the minimum pressure of the rival, the culés stepped backwards. With the entry of Dembélé remained the feeling that it could go to by more, but once again the defensive fragility 'condemned' to the Catalans.

The Barça punishes to himself same, with two factors that it is necessary to have very clear: the fault of goal -that begins to be a nightmare- and the disconnection in the defence of to whiles. Play the one who play. In front of the Betis remained more than checked and remains for the analysis like jugadores like Sergiño Dest, Memphis Depay or Philippe Coutinho (explaining also to Lenglet, Nico...) They happened unobserved in a key party to follow recortando points with the teams that are in the first positions of the domestic championship. The international with United States, for example, lived a grey party and confirmed the suspicions: it was not smart to be headline.

Although his lumbalgia has remained backwards, the '2' culé was not enchufado in the party and suffered more than the account in his defensive tasks. It is not a surprise, however. Dest Has not stood out mainly by his work to the hour to defend, if no rather to add to the attack (therefore it had played before like false extreme), but against the verdiblancos participated to dropper. It arrived very late in the action of the goal and suffered, all the afternoon, against Àlex or Juanmi. It remains the feeling that, in spite of his experience, Dani Alves will contest a lot of minutes in this team...

It is necessary to stand out, once again, the intermittence of a Memphis Depay that, first, does not feel comfortable like leading centre and that, besides, is not an offensive leader. The Dutch keeps on being, with differences, the maximum goleador Barcelona and by consequence, the reference for the culés, but his party against the Betis is to forget it. It was of change. It is true that it is of these players that disappears and afterwards marks a golazo decisive, as it happened against the Athletic of Bilbao or Villarreal, but little more than this. Memphis Seems far to assume the role that the Barça needs that have and remained, once again, argued.

Finally, and no thus being less important, is Philippe Coutinho, that seems to be irretrievable. It began the party sorpresivamente enchufado and with spirits of desestabilizar in the rival defence, but this impetus lasted him, as a lot, twenty minutes. It became the player that never is and that little does, as it accustoms. It is impactante the fact that it do not want to leave of the Camp Nou, because it is a footballer that never has fit and that with Xavi, save to an unexpected denouement, neither will do it.

Grey party of all the Barça

Further of the disequilibrium of Dembélé or Abde, of the party of the Barcelona can stand out little or at all, to the point that players like Nico González (that it came being nail) happened unobserved. His efforts remained in at all and showed too imprecise, causing too many faults. Another that no 'save' is a Riqui Puig that to this point would have to be more was that inside the Barça. It is unable to shake to the rivals and, again, his spirits and win remained in attempts.

Clement Lenglet tampoc was hit, but signed a correct party until the played of Juanmi, losing the position completely. A distraction more to his repertoire. Jordi Alba wanted to help in the offensive, because in defence left too many holes, but finished surpassed, as well as a Frenkie of Jong that ingresó in the second part... To run of a side to another without reasons and without sense.
