The FC Barcelona closed his turn American with a convincente victory in front of the New York Network Bulls (0-2). Although the triumph did not leave a feeling of brilliance and forcefulness as if it caused it the goleada in front of the Inter of Miami (0-6), the ones of Xavi Hernández dominated the party with comfort and left high notes in the individual. In defence, the most stood out was Eric García, the one who repeated titularity by fourth consecutive party.

The Catalan was ranged by Xavi, again, beside Andreas Christensen, with Ronald Araújo situated like side by right and Jordi Alba in his usual left lane. The '24' showed solid in the scarce advances of the Network Bulls, anticipating with security and giving him exit to the Barça like leader of the saga. Like this, in the 62 minutes that was in field, the ex head office of the Manchester City confirmed that, further of the competition by the titularity, can surrender to tope in the 2022-23.

For Eric, the arrival of Jules Koundé supposes almost a 'sentence' to his possibilities to be headline this year. In principle, the Frenchman will be to title beside Ronald Araújo like axes of the saga, further that the 'charrúa' have been tested like right side in the pre-season. In his defect, the companion of Koundé will be Christensen, the another central fichado by the club this summer and the one who also has left good feelings in turns it North American.

In this sense, the Danish advances clearly to García thanks to his hierarchy. Andreas comes to be indisputable headline in Chelsea beside Antonio Rüdiger, club in which it won it everything in the last five years. Thus, Eric aims to struggle for being the fourth head office of the Barça beside Gerard Hammered the one who knows that it does not explain in the plans of Xavi for the 2022-23, but further of this will be still in the club.

The fans follows sceptic with Eric García

Further of his good performances in turns it American, the fans culé keeps his scepticism with the defender of 21 years. García contested 36 parties (2.808 minutes) the past season and did not attain to settle like titling in spite of the low level showed by Hammered and Clément Lenglet, today in the Tottenham. The defensive fragility blaugrana of the 2021-22 solo had Araújo like guarantee and, after the signings of Christensen and Koundé, Eric happens to second plane. Nevertheless, Xavi, faithful to his philosophy, will have he and will give opportunities to all by equal. While it surrender when it touch him play, the canterano will have hopes to go back to be headline.
