The so announced and feared end of cycle culé shows in the horizon. Of the hand of the Tata, and the circumstances, the team has lost the magic of antaño. His football no longer amuses to almost anybody, and what is worse, threat with leaving him out of the fight by the titles
They run bad time in Can Barça, the till lately considered "better team of the world and possibly of the history" crosses his moment anímico lower. In hardly a month the team of Tata Martino has lost the leadership of the League and has left recortar the advantage that had on the Real Madrid. A defeat (Valencia 2-3) and two ties (Athletic 0-0 and Raise 1-1) have been sufficient to carry by in front all the credit achieved during a first part of the acceptable season from the point of view of the results. Unfortunately, already anybody remembers the championship of winter, neither the 12 victories achieved after losing at the beginning of December in Saint Mamés (1-0). Why?
A team of high range with provision of utilitario
The problem of the Barça 2013/14 are not the results, but the feelings that transmits. Estadísticamente Speaking, the numbers of the Barcelona team are relatively good: Of 37 official parties contested have won 28, empatado 6 and lost only 3. Besides, in the section goleador has been able to annotate 100 goals and receive only 25.
Like this as we speak of a problem of feelings, of a problem clearly futbolístico. The game of the team no longer sticks as before. Of the "total football" of Guardiola have happened to the "football taken with pinzas" of the Tata. With a style that remembers to the of the eighty, have happened of the football with square and cartabón to the football of playground of school. The culé begins to live of "chispazos" punctual, a clearly insufficient show for a Camp Nou accustomed probably.
Guardiola Was a leader; the Tata a good trainer
Further of the results, it is necessary to recognise that the feelings that transmits the team do not invite to the optimism. No longer it amuses to almost anybody and from does time, an usually exquisite football serves in monodosis. We have happened of the omnipresence of Pep Guardiola to the law of minima of Gerardo Martino. The Argentinian technician approves in the majority of responsibilities, but the slat is so high that by moments seems inalcanzable.
Martino has tried to endow to the team of tactical alternatives, but by the way has lost the essence and part of the style. Besides, the institutional unsteadiness and a politics of reinforcements clearly mejorables have not helped in at all, rather all the contrary. Also it suits to remember the long absence of Messi, fuselage insignia of the Barça champion.
Rectify is of wise persons: It Is necessary fichar
Although the base is almost perfect, the Barcelona team presents big disequilibriums in the current preparation of his staff. Taking like reference to the "PepTeam", the reinforcements that needs the team are evident. The arrival of a goalkeeper, two defences, a half centre and a forward are indispensable to recover the hegemonia in the Spanish football and European. The Barça needs to recover the regularity and polivalencia of Abidal; the work, sacrifice and balance of Touré and Keita; and the aggressiveness and the goals of Eto´or. With these four reinforcements, more all what there is, the Barcelona team would go back to compete to the maximum level. It is necessary to look for them.
