The Classical against the Real Madrid was one of the last challenges of the FC Barcelona in the present season. With LaLiga Santander and the Glass of the King in the pocket, to the barcelonismo touches him ilusionarse with what can give of if the team in the next campaign, that will have like aim go back to opt by all the titles.
For this, it will be necessary to learn of the errors committed in the present course, that have been few, but any very important. The Barça has achieved to keep a big regularity in the national competitions to finish carrying the double crown, but were not so well the things in the Champions League, where a bad night finish leaving to the culés without opting to the 'triplete'.
The Barcelona team will have to learn of all this of face to look for the success in the next campaign, in which also it will have to surpass the course of the big captain of the team, Andrés Iniesta. Without a so important piece, the staff will suffer changes, as well as the eleven of gala that will present Ernesto Valverde in the big parties. To continuation, the keys of the Barça of the next season.
The keys of the Barça 2018-19
Lethal attack: arrival of Griezmann
One of the appearances to improve in the present season is the dependency goleadora that has had the team with Leo Messi and Luis Suárez. Both accumulate the greater part of the goals of the team of Ernesto Valverde in the present season, and the figures speak in case same: Messi is the maximum goleador with 44 goals; Suárez the second, with 30; but the third, Paulinho, remains very far, with hardly eight.
A problem that the Barça has to solve, since it can not trust all the weight goleador only in two footballers, by very good that they are. The solution that poses the sportive direction is clear: the arrival of Antoine Griezmann. The French forward is the big star of the Athletic of Madrid, so much by goals as by influence in the game, by what would be the solution to the dependency of the Barça with Messi and Suárez.
In the distribution on the field, the French would happen to form part of the trident beside the Argentinian and to the Uruguayan. Suárez would be the most advanced man of the team and Griezmann him escudaría thanks to his big capacity of surprise to arrive with finish in the area. Leo Messi would play like mediapunta by behind both, with his already usual freedom of movements.
Four 'jugones' in the centre of the field
In spite of that the football of the team will be more direct with the arrival of Griezmann, the accumulation of men of touch in the centre of the field will be key, and more after the drop of Andrés Iniesta. Sergio Busquets and Ivan Rakitic will go back to be the players that award balance in the centre of the field of the FC Barcelona, combining his quality and creativity with the balloon in the feet with the tactical intelligence to recover balloons.
Without Iniesta, Philippe Coutinho will be able to play of fixed form in his favourite position: like left interior. The Brazilian will not be so escorado in the band as it occurs with the presence of the manchego, by what will be able to have much more contact with the ball to help in the creation of the game, although it also will have to offer some defensive sacrifice to contribute solidity to the team.
Leo Messi will split like mediapunta, but also will help to build game going down to receive when the occasion require it. In spite of that no longer it will have players like Xavi or Iniesta, the presence of Busquets, Rakitic, Coutinho and Leo Messi will be key to follow with the philosophy to have the balloon like offensive and defensive weapon.
The importance of the sides
Any of the stars appointed up to now is a pure player of band. All they are footballers that do a lot of damage by the centre by his enormous quality, but now does lacking to find the way to generate them space so that they can manoeuvre with defences more open. It is here where goes in the paper of the sides.
Three key names: Jordi Alba, Sergi Roberto and Nelson Semedo. Both will have to be able to close defensivamente his bands, but also to contribute depth in attack. The fact to form an eleven without pure extremes does indispensable that the sides turn into extremes to force to the rival defences to go out of the cave, generating necessary spaces so that the men of attack luzcan.
The paper of Dembélé
If finally it finish arriving Antoine Griezmann, Ousmane Dembélé will have it complicated to be indisputable headline. It has spoken of a possible cession, but the true is that the FC Barcelona bets by the French continuity like revulsivo: it is the only pure extreme of the staff and will help to the team to desatascar split.
Besides, with his age, has a lot of margin of improvement to turn into the reference of the team in the future. In his first season has had a lot of setbacks: it could not prepare the pre-season, lesionó of gravity twice, was missing him confidence... But it has the certainty that all this will change. The French has quality, desborde and is unpredictable, by what will be fundamental.
Basic wardrobe
One of the problems to which has exposed Ernesto Valverde in the present season is in having an eleven very clear-cut headline and without hardly competition. The fault of rotations by part of the technician extremeño because of the fault of confidence in the 'second unit' has caused overloads it of minutes of the indisputable headlines, that arrived mermados in decisive parties like the one of the Rome in Champions.
It is here where the acting theorists have to step forward. Players like Lucas Digne or Denis Suárez will have to consolidate like solid options for the team when one of the headlines have problems or simply the Txingurri consider that it has to award rest.
