With a chamber of the season finished, is moment to analyse which of the four players that arrived to the Camp Nou in the summer has showed better performance
The FC Barcelona has had a beginning of campaign very irregular and unexpected. The culés occupy the ninth position in LaLiga Santander and completed the worst start in the domestic competition in 33 years. In the Champions League, by his part, showed a big level in the first five parties, butto nte the Juventus the history was very distinct and finished yielding the first square of the group, what leaves them in a very complicated situation of face to the draw of the eighth.
To day of today, are more the doubts that generates the approach of Ronald Koeman that what backs to the Dutch technician, but is not the only. Some players, as Leo Messi, have gone down his level and already concerns to all the barcelonismo. In theory, this was a full season of changes, after the shameful defeat in front of the Bayern Munich in Lisbon, and thus it changed of trainer and fichó to several players to change the course of the team.
With the phase of groups of the Champions League finalised and with LaLiga in his last days of the year, is necessary to analyse the paper that have had the two signings of the Barça in summer, Miralem Pjanic and Sergiño Dest, and the incorporations that the team closed in January, Pedri, Trincao and Matheus Fernandes, although the last only has played a party.
Pedri, determinant and key for the Barça
Pedri González has been maybe one of the best bets of the Barcelona in the last years. The culés concretised his traspaso during the month of January and from his debut has not done more than impressing to to the barcelonismo. With 18 years, has turned into one of the players 'fixed' of Ronald Koeman and in a key player for the team. It has played 15 parties and marked two goals to date and has known to answer -and surpass- all the requirements that comports to dress the T-shirt of the Barcelona.
The ex of The Palms has showed the best that knows to do: game asociativo with big rhythm and spectacular control of the balloon, that has not overlooked for Koeman. Besides, it participates constantly in the defensive work. In front of the Osasuna, when it accompanied to Frenkie of Jong in the double pivote, rindió and showed his quality.
Dest, the right side of the future
It was curious that in the first time that Sergiño Dest played with the Barcelona did it by the left lane, although of course it exerts by the right. It has showed his polivalencia when being able to fulfil by the two bands and be key for the defensive and offensive game of the team. With the injury of Sergi Roberto, has seen an opportunity of gold to be indisputable headline and does not have it desaprovechado.
Dest Is powerful, fast and gives to the Barça a very necessary amplitude. Up to now, the feelings that has left are more than positive and there are a lot of probabilities that his big level turn it into the new Dani Alves, as he wait. It has played 12 meetings and in front of the Ferencvaros premièred like goleador of the team.
Of Trincao expected more...
Trincao Landed in Barcelona like one of the young promises of the Portuguese football, but in the Barça has gone of more to less and his presence in the field has not become determinant. It is true that has not had a lot of opportunities to be headline, because Koeman sees it like a revulsivo, to the equal that his trainer in the selection of Portugal, Fernando Santos.
It has played 15 meetings, but never has been headline in LaLiga. In the Champions, by the rotations, yes has had the opportunity, but always has remained without being determinant. Has a lot of quality, but does not finish to fit in the team. Still it has not marked neither it has given assistances and, worse still, has lost efficiency in the dribbling, when it was one of his best skills.
Pjanic Still no despega
The midfield player bosnio said in an interview to 'The Gazzetta dello Sport' that does not understand reason finds in a so complicated situation in the Barça, where does not finish to surpass to Frenkie of Jong and to Busquets for the double pivote. Pjanic Has played all the parties of Champions and, in front of his ex team, the Juventus, in the party of gone was one of the most important players for the victory of the Barcelona in Turín.
His talent is indisputable, but the competition that has has carried it to have to see the majority of the parties from the bench. In the beginning of campaign, had prejudiced him his physical state, that was not to 100%, but has remained without having a sufficiently good paper that attain to convince to Koeman to seat to Busquets or Of Jong.
