Calendar of FC Barcelona

One of the more remarkable and important factors that could observe in the victory of the Barcelona in front of the Seville, by 0-2, went the diagram that Ronald Koeman presented for said party. A 3-5-2 that contemplated three head offices deep down, to Jordi Alba and to Sergiño Dest like carrileros and to Ousmane Dembélé and to Lionel Messi in the attack.

Although only it had an only antecedent in the season, produced in front of the Valladolid, in the victory culé by 0-3. The 3-5-2 presented some remarkable advantages in the meeting in front of the Seville. In the first place, the polivalencia that offers Óscar Mingueza, the one who can play like right side, allowed that the Barcelona could defend transforming his diagram in a 4-4-2 with the canterano occupying the right-handed lane, Jordi Alba going down to his natural left side and Sergiño Dest like "interior", collaborating with Busquets, Pedri and of Jong. This allowed the unification of the blocks when the culés had to recover the balloon.

This point contributes also to that Sergiño Dest, the one who has big skills to attack but some lacks to defend, can rid of the turns to the retaguardia when his team does not have the possession of the balloon. To his time, the carrilero American can add with more ease to Messi and Dembélé in the offensive, generating actions of danger, like the balonazo to the stick that the same starred in the second time.

On the other hand, this diagram favours a lot to the fact that Sergio Busquets do not wear out so much, to the not having to mark the spaces left by his mates. The short routes that the mediocampista has to do under this modality of alignment, in which it finds very very surrounded, contribute to that it can surrender more without running so much, being indispensable in the recoveries and in the start of the game culé.

Griezmann, the big sacrificed

The big prejudiced of the use of the 3-5-2 is Antoine Griezmann, the one who does not compete to be positioned in the bands, where Jordi Alba and Sergiño Dest seem to be the absolute owners. The French neither has advantage to play in the attack of this diagram, where Dembélé queen by his speed and ease to win the back to the rival head offices and Messi funge like main generator of game, as it saw in the so much marked by the ex Borussia Dortmund.

Griezmann Was acting in the party in front of the Seville and no ingresó, not even in the second half, when the attack asked to cries a change that gave oxygen to the zone. In this case, Koeman decided by Braithwaite, the one who also uses the speed to his favour and serves like agent of constant pressure when the team blaugrana has to recover the balloon.
