Koeman Is comfortable with the 3-5-2… will be reliable to 100%?

Ronald Koeman tested for the first time of official way this Saturday in front of the Seville by the day 25 of LaLiga, this new diagram of 3-5-2, which decided to repeat it in the turn by the semifinals of Glass of the King this Wednesday in front of the Andalusian picture. That day could detect a change that strengthened the mobility of the front of attack, and in pressure accompanied of the three head offices, that helped to facilitate the exit of the ball.

The sides

The first that can stand out of this new diagram of Koeman are the carrileros. So much Jordi Alba like Sergiño Dest have seen involved with the attack. Thanks to his characteristics like offensive sides, and have all the depth of the band to generate opportunities of danger is a factor that benefits to all the team, especially to Lionel Messi. This diagram also subtracts him weight to the defensive work of Sergiño that, as it has showed it, has lacks in this appearance by what have Mingueza filling up the space that leaves Dest gives him total freedom to the American to attack to pleasure.

The paper of the carrileros in the new diagram of Koeman has remained showed in the command culé by the sides. An example of this has been Jordi Alba, that had a chance clear to mark in the turn of the semifinals in front of the Seville when finishing a surprising volley that at the end did not finish at the bottom of the contrary network. In the start of this year, Alba has seen involved in the offensive of the team, what has helped to the achievement of triumphs of the Barcelona group.

Numerical advantage

Like consequence to have up to Dest and Alba, does that Messi of course was displaced to the centre of the field to receive the round, generating like this numerical superiority with the midfield players, in addition to Messi. This favours to two factors: Fluidity of the spherical in the field and the influence of the captain in the field. The Argentinian star already is accustomed to receive the ball in the frontal of the area and to be decisive in 3/4 of field. Even, in occasions has been able to see to Messi go down to the centre of the field to receive the round, gestando he same the played.

It is not a perfect system

However, this diagram presents a problem that could evidenciar the past Wednesday in front of the directed by Julen Lopetegui. When presionaron to the Barcelona picture, happened a bad while trying go out playing by what in occasions looked for the easy exit: the pelotazo. Although, they could resolve this problem with base in the solid game and mobility so much in the bands as in the centre of the field. Where even Jordi Alba had to go down to support the exit of the ball by the high pressure of the Seville. Meanwhile, definitively evidenció that this diagram has result simultaneously the problems of the team, showing an improvement in the game. It subtracts to observe how it exerts the Barcelona picture of face to commitments highly demanding.
