The FC Barcelona carries time preparing a relief for the best generation of footballers that has gone through the Camp Nou, and works no rest to choose to the most suitable options. It does not treat to retort to the Puyol, Xavi or Iniesta, but to find similar pieces that can assume his role and be his heirs in a changing room whose philosophy is supported by the step of the years. In his research, this yes, have crossed some painful reverses.

The reports that does some months advised to bet it everything by Rodri Hernández are showing to be hit, and is that the ex of the Villarreal, that hardly has 22 years, is growing to steps enlarged. It is a responsible pivote tácticamente, aseado in the technical and with capacity of pass and of handle of the times, a project that remembers a lot to one of the referents of the staff culé.

It does years that to Sergio Busquets looks for him spare, substitute and successor, a responsibility that for the moment anybody has attained to assume. The one of Badia has based his career in being the break-even point in a team of marked offensive character, in which it always is the first option to go out to the attack but also the first -and advanced- line of defence, in a system that works like clockwork.

Now, in the City Condal observes with some frustration like the Madrilenian shines so much in the Athletic as in the Spanish selection, with two very distinct proposals in which it knows to fit his virtues to perfection. In a so solid block like the one of the 'colchoneros' has attained to convince to a demanding Cholo Simeone, and besides begins to enamorar to the experts with a brave football like which has Luis Enrique.

To the Barça escaped him an opportunity inigualable because it threw more his past rojiblanco, as he same confessed in his return to the capital. "It is not that the offer of the Barcelona arrived late, but when it arrived the one of the Atléti centred me exclusively in her. I am happy to go back to my house", explained. The product of the quarries of Villareal and Atleti, besides, went a round operation, because it closed in around 30 million euros. Nowadays, an authentic bargain.

Arthur, the role model for the Barça

In spite of that touches to be pending in case Rodri wants to begin a new adventure, the Barça has to grow through his tarpaulins, and recently also has had them. Arthur is still very far to be Xavi Hernández or Andrés Iniesta, but is innegable that see the football of the same form and that the Brazilian seems custom-made for the team. Regarding signing, adaptation and bet, the one of Goiania is a role model for the Catalans, to which expects them a big future if they are able to keep in shape that it carried them to the success.
