FC Barcelona has been reinforced in this winter transfer market with four players who aim to be undisputed starters and who leave the youngest in a delicate situation: How much will they be able to play in the remainder of the season?
It begins the final stretch of the season 2021-2022 and the FC Barcelona, after a very grey beginning, is forced to give a hit on the table and show that it wants to litigate by the two titles that remain in dispute: LaLiga and Europe League. For this, have reinforced in this market of wintry signings with four players: Dani Alves, Ferran Torres, Adama Traoré and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. All aim to be indisputable headlines.
They are four footballers that arrived to the Camp Nou to play it all and help to the Barça in his more delicate moment, but that also will cause that they generate doubts regarding what will happen with the youngest players of the staff: the canteranos that have dressed of heroes to rescue to the team a few times in what it goes of season... How many minutes will finish contesting from this time on?
It is the big doubt, because for the moment everything aims to that the alignment title of the Barça will be with Ter Stegen in the goal; Alves, Hammered, Araújo and Jordi Alba in the defence; Busquets, Frenkie of Jong and Pedri in the centre of the field, as well as Adama, Aubameyang and Ferran Torres in the offensive. It will be a 'frenazo', except surprise, total for the 'Dream Teen', to exception of Araújo, Pedri and Ansu when it was available.
It is necessary to ask what will happen with players with Gavi or Nico González, those who came adding an important quantity of minutes and whose development in these last months has been amazing. Everything seems to indicate to that Xavi will opt by the same centre of the field of the past season (that it used Koeman all the time) and that will go delivering minutes between the two canteranos.
Further of the two midfield players, begin the big doubts. They will play Abde, Jutglà or Ilias? It seems that it will be complicated, because have to a few players by in front. In addition to which aim to be indisputable headlines (Ferran, Adama and Aubameyang) are Memphis Depay, Luuk of Jong or Martin Braithwaite in the bench expecting his opportunities, in addition to Dembélé in case that it resolve his situation.
The incomprehensible case of Balde
In addition to the previous mentioned, Alejandro Balde is the most distinguished of the 'Dream Teen', place seems not having space in the team. Xavi Hernández does not trust, at all, in Alejandro Balde and keeps his bet by Jordi Alba, although the left side has left more doubts that certainties in this season. It has not existed, not even, a touch of attention. In the meantime, Balde has remained relegado to the bench and has been invisible for Xavi. It could abandon the team in research of minutes. For the moment, they have been 116, delivered in four parties in League and two in Champions.
