The FC Barcelona decided to go back to have a summer 'aggressive' regarding signings and in spite of a complicated economic situation and without the possibility to activate 'crowbars' as in 2022, the culés have marked to turns it of pre-season by United States with big part of the duties done. However, the staff still luce to some of the players that are in the ramp of exit.
Precisely by this last in FCBN review to continuation how finds the team of Xavi Hernández to little less than a month for the first official party of the season, which will contest in Getafe the Sunday 13 August. Like this the things, the goal has to Ter Stegen like headline and absolute owner, in addition to Iñaki Crag that has been renewed to follow like the acting, but a possible renewal of Arnau Tenas could change this in the following days.
Variety of options for Xavi in his defence
Being still in the defensive line find us surely with the most complicated position to analyse of all: the right side. And it is that the Barça does not have right now to a carrilero right-handed natural and title in the staff, but at the same time has 'overbooking' in the position. Jules Koundé and Ronald Araújo, to the day of today, will be the attendants to cover the position in the majority of the parties, but in in the club keeps Sergi Roberto like option, in addition to Sergiño Dest and Julian Araujo, these two last with a foot out of the entity.
The centre of the defence finds to Eric García in a similar position to the one of the American and the Mexican. The defender remained without place the course gone through the big performance of Christensen -beside Araújo-, as well as by the polivalencia of Marcos Alonso. Now, the culés have added also to Iñigo Martínez and this leaves to the ex Manchester City like the fifth option, if we take into account to Koundé and to the Basque defender like the two 'acting' of Xavi, and understanding that Lenglet does not explain in the most minimum.
To complete to the defence arrive to one of the places where fewer doubts exist in all the club when knowing that Alejandro Balde is the left side headline of the Barça and his alternative will be Marcos Alonso, especially to the hour to do rest to the canterano. Like this we arrive to the half of the field and the pivote, where Oriol Romeu positions like the only mediocentro natural and therefore it does not have competition neither alternative to the hour to rest, at least with his own profile.
The 'room of machines' of the Barça
Thus, Eric García could raise the hand like a very punctual option to give rest to the ex Girona, to the equal that would do it Frenkie of Jong and Gündogan. Precisely the Dutch and the German seem safe headlines of the technical body for the role of inner 'mixed', trying add so much in attack as in defence and leaving to Pedri -and Gavi- as the mediocampista more offensive on the field.
With Pablo Tower already yielded in the Girona, the Canarian and the Andalusian will be able to alternate the role of 'false' extreme in a system with four midfield players, having also to Kessié, Sergi, Hill and Nico González like alternatives in the midfield, although only with the captain culé having his continuity ensured. Like this the things at present, seems to be missing a midfield player 'total' more in the case that all the 'descartes' finish going out this summer.
Lewandowski, the only absolute headline in the attack culé
To finalise, but no thus less important, find us with the line of attack. To solve quickly the subject: Lewandowski is the best and the only '9' that has Xavi. With the Pole already knowing and keeping his role -until it arrive Vitor Roque to compete-, the incógnitas are in the extremes. In the right, Dembélé has to recover his headline with Raphinha, understanding that the 4-3-3 will go back in moments very punctual of the season.
Besides, neither the Brazilian neither the French lucen especially playing by the left sector, place where Ferran Torres, Ansu Fati and Abde have to deliver the few available minutes and take advantage of the best possible his opportunities. Any one of the three footballers still could leave the entity anytime, although the two Spanish attackers seem firm and besides offer the possibility to play by the centre of the attack of occasional way.
