The newspaper "Sport" has launched a survey to the fans culé in which it asks if the FC Barcelona would have to fichar to another central after the acquisition of Jeremy Mathieu, that will fulfil 31 years in October and does not have experience in the elite of the football

In the last hours, "Sport" has launched an active survey in which the fans culés can vote if the Barçaa would have to or not promoting the signing of a new central after having closed definitively the incorporation of Jeremy Mathieu in return of 20 million euros, the price of his clause rescission. In the last weeks has remained patent in all the forums related with the Barcelona actuality that the French defence surely is the signing less ilusionante of the last five years, because of his low profile mediático and to that, with almost 31 years, only has been international in two occasions and does not have experience in a team of high level.

In fact, the general thought remains perfectamene reflected in the survey, where 97% of the voters thinks that the FC Barcelona would have to hire without place to doubts to a central of guarantees, like Hummels or Vertonghen, to finish to cover the feeblest zone of the staff. The true is that, in the last surveys, Mathieu appeared always in the last position in the order of preferences of the fans for the position of head office, where Hummels and Vertonghen were always the favourites. Marquinhos And Blind, besides, also were situated by in front of the French.

Of course, it does not be necessary to despise the potential of a footballer that has showed big quality in the five years that has happened in Valencia, and that still can surprise positively in the Barça. However, many criticise that the fact to arrive to the team culé with almost 31 years gives him very little margin of continuity of face to the future, since it already has lived physically his best years of football and to measure that go happening the seasons his performance will go decreciendo.

In this sense, has been a tarpaulin or an error the signing of Mathieu? The past summer, when it sounded like possible signing for the Barça in return of 10 million euros, already had big discrepancies around the operation. A year afterwards, having him fichado by 20 million euros, denotes that perhaps the main error of the sportive direction culé have been to have not scheduled better his order of priorities after three summers in search of a central.
