In 2022, FC Barcelona has the great challenge of leaving the bad feelings behind and fighting, until the end, for the two titles it disputes: LaLiga and Europa League. For this, Xavi Hernández has seen his squad strengthened
The FC Barcelona does not want to surrender so prompt and will litigate by the two titles that are still in game: LaLiga Santander and Europe League. The way is slope up and the Barcelona arrive with a lot of disadvantage, but is not impossible to surpass. The illusion keeps in the team and in the Camp Nou trust that the reinforcements that have arrived in this market of wintry signings help to the team to give a hit on the table and resurgir from the ashes.
The Barça had wanted to concretise more signings, but the situation with the 'fair play' financial is more than delicate, considering that as it exceeds the limit salarial, the club has to generate too much income to be able to inscribe to players in his staff. To fault of a day so that it close the market of wintry signings are three the reinforcements: Dani Alves, Ferran Torres and the recently concretised Adama Traoré, those who aim to be very important for Xavi in these last months of competition.
So much Alves like Ferran come being headlines with the Barça and everything aims to that Adama Traoré also will be it, something that will brake, for example, the progression of Ez Abde in this season, the one who came being an important piece for Xavi in the last parties. Like this then , they are few the interrogantes that can exist with the alignment of the Catalan picture for this 2022 after the wintry market.
XI renewed of the FC Barcelona for the 2022
- XI of the Barça: Ter Stegen; Dani Alves, Gerard Hammered, Ronald Araújo, Jordi Alba; Sergio Busquets, Of Jong, Pedri; Adama, Ferran and Gavi.
They can have a few variations in these alignments, but this aims to be the base for Xavi Hernández. Marc-André ter Stegen is a fixed under the three sticks and, after his last parties, is a good news for the Barcelona. It has gone back to be determinant and recovered the confidence, by what is between the players that will be keys in this season.
In the defensive saga, there are some options. It seems sure that the option by which will opt Xavi, at least of beginning, will be the one of Alves by the right side, the couple of head offices of Hammered and Araújo, whereas Jordi Alba will split by the left band, but there is alternative. By the right could play Sergiño Dest or Òscar Mingueza. In the axis, is the doubt of what will happen when was available Eric García, the one who in theory would have to split to title beside Araújo. Alba does not have competition in his side.
In the centre of the field also there are variations, but Sergio Busquets, Frenkie of Jong and Pedri González can be the fixed headlines, as it already happened in the past season. Xavi trusts they, to the equal that Ronald Koeman. It can play Nico González, the one who had a big beginning of season, in case that Of Jong no 'takeoff', as well as Gavi in his natural position.
However, the one of Palaces has showed that it can play as false left extreme and to keep his -deserved- titularity could split in this position, where will develop a similar role to the of Andrés Iniesta in his starts like Barcelona. It will be accompanied by Ferran Torres in the centre of the forward, whereas Adama Traoré will split by the derercha.
To the margin of the lesionado -on a long-term basis- Ansu Fati, Xavi will have options for rotar. They will expect in the bench to have his opportunity in the forward Memphis Depay (when it go out of the infirmary), Martin Braithwaite and Luuk of Jong, as well as the canteranos Ilias, Ez Abde or Jutglà. They would not have to have excuses... Because there is staff to litigate by the titles.
