Anybody puts in doubt that Ivan Rakitic is one of the best signings of the Barcelona in the last years. A footballer sacrificed like few, with good shot and a performance constante.la arrived of Paulinho does not seem that it go to leave him with fewer minutes<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

In the Barcelona has spoken long and tended this summer on how restructure the centre of the field<\/strong> to tenor that Iniesta is every time worse and that the signings of the last years are not surrendering how expected . But there is one that yes has worked to perfection: Ivan Rakitic<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>

The Croat came of the Seville by hardly twenty million euros <\/strong>does four seasons and his performance has been more than remarkable since. In his first year already was headline, relegando to Xavi to the bench and marking a goal in the final of the Champions League. With Luis Enrique was one of the players of field more used.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>

It fits to stand out that to day of today there is not any player with his characteristics to act in the average. A versatile and polyvalent footballer, that stands out by his big quality but also by his sacrifice in defence,<\/strong> occupying hollow and also by his fitness. All this will keep on being key for the new Bar\u00e7a of Valverde.<\/p>

Up to now it has been indisputable headline and does not have paints that the arrival of Paulinho go him to relegar to the bench. Because even with a change of system his tactical intelligence and his capacity of work would allow him play at the side of Busquets.<\/strong> A perfect joker that the Bar\u00e7a will need in his maximum version.<\/p>

By more good years<\/h2>

As we have said previously, Rakitic is already amortised. And it is that from his arrival to the club, the efficiency of the Croat is out of all doubt: 29 goals and 22 assistances in 162 parties. <\/strong>And besides it thinks that the staff is good to compete by everything: “I Think that have a good staff, it is necessary to be to 100% party after split<\/strong>or. It is not the usual that in a team like the Bar\u00e7a there are changes so big in August”.<\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
