The five aspects in which Barça must improve to return to the top

The FC Barcelona leaves to the second stop of selections of the season in the third position of LaLiga, to three points of the Real Madrid, and adding his third tie in the first nine parties of the season. Although certainly the culés have suffered again with the injuries in this start of course, Xavi Hernández will have to take advantage of the almost two weeks of 'rest' to try give a second break to the team.

And it is that leaving for one moment to a side the heavy drops that the egarense has had in these almost two months of competition, also remains clear that there are some points that in almost any moment have worked of the correct way for the Barça. The first that it can come to the mind is surely the defensive work, which went surely the key for the title in LaLiga the previous season.

Xavi, without a solution for his defence and the one of the rivals

Right now Xavi needs to armour the defence, already was consolidating a line of four as already it did it in the past or looking for alternative so that the team do not remain so unprotected in punctual moments, as it happened in the second goal of the Granada this Sunday. Certainly Araújo was a month in the infirmary, and now Koundé seemed to finish with annoyances, but without both on the field the Barça suffers, and a lot.

Continuing in this analysis, can not obviar that they already are several teams that have left clear that with closing spaces and play in very little field can complicate seriously to the team of Xavi. The Barça needs a lot of more mobility up against enclosed defences, something that to have much more consolidated in his system could have him given triumph in Getafe or Granada, further of the punctual developments of both meetings and the referee's errors of Soto Degree.

The attack of the Barça could be much more flowed and dangerous

Going on down this way, so much the technical body like the own players could try split of a better reading of parties and like this take advantage of better players that give advantages, as it shows increasingly Lamine or Joao Félix, especially in the case of the Portuguese if it achieves to do society with Balde by the left part of the field. Likewise it remains slope that the Barça can recover the pressure after loss of the past year.

And it is that the best Barça arrive like this and this season simply Xavi has not attained to keep this posture on the field. Again it seems to weigh the fact that it do not exist a XI or system by heart, partly by the injuries. In fact, this also has done that another key can not execute more: Gúndogan near of the area. The German has had to delay metres in the field by the drop of Frenkie of Jong, and even being pivote many times, leaving almost in the forget to this mediocampista that assisted to Pedri in front of the Cádiz and that in the Manchester City surpassed the 10 goals the previous course.
