Between the conclusions that left Chelsea-FC Barcelona is the tireless instinct of survival that Ernesto Valverde has achieved inculcar to his pupilos, but the evidences also signalled that to this team in occasions weigh him too much the legs. The rotations have to go back to scene in the Catalan group, and there are some opportunities to do it.

The season has showed that there is not small rival, but in the weeks to come, there will be susceptible meetings of some important rest. The calendar brings to the Girona to the Camp Nou this same weekend, and afterwards two visits against two rivals that transitan in the low zone of the table. Between The Palms and Málaga colará a decisive duel against the Athletic , by what begin to freshen footballers seems even more necessary.

The key will be that the Txingurri throw of some changes that already gave him resulted in his first interventions in the team. Without estridencias, without revolutions, with some modifications of start and other when the marker allow it. It has encouraged in keeping to the staff enchufada, by what has arrived the moment to begin to collect the fruits.

In addition to a defence in which Gerard Hammered, Sergi Roberto or Jordi Alba have to have a break -and because Samuel Umtiti rested by obligation in his injury- the medullary has to have reliefs to keep alive, because it will be vital until final of course and all the indispensable have played them almost everything. Sergio Busquets, Ivan Rakitic and Andrés Iniesta have to begin to step bench, as well as a Paulinho to the that even have exhausted him the batteries.

The big benefited

If it shakes a bit the eleven, there will be a lot of benefited, because the headlines will recover strengths and the acting will know that it has arrived the hour to begin to give the size. Nélson Semedo, Lucas Digne, Paco Alcácer, Aleix Vidal or Thomas Vermaelen have had his quota of leadership along the campaign, and sure that they will want to follow showing that the Barcelona T-shirt does not remain them big.

Between the novelties, also there will be advantages in the adaptation, with Ousmane Dembélé, Philippe Coutinho and Yerry Mina accumulating some minutes that are more than necessary. Defence, centre of the field and leading are important to equal parts, but without the necessary freshness, can lastrar to a Barça that it wants to all the titles at stake. If it rests until Leo Messi... It has arrived the hour of rotar.
