Calendar of FC Barcelona

The essence of the success in the world of the football has a lot that see with the changes, work or no the formulas of the past. To the FC Barcelona did not go him at all badly the past season 2017-18 with the 4-4-2 that implanted Ernesto Valverde. It won in stability and in balance, also to defensive level, but lost depth in attack and the figure of goals resintió.

Of face to this next campaign, so that the clubs do not adapt to the system of past game of the FC Barcelona, the 'Txingurri' would look for to contribute something more than mobility and dynamism to the alignments, with the eagerness to find more depth and give a touch more offensive to the team, that has players with the necessary conditions, to technical level and futbolístico, to shut to the rival groups in his own areas.

Ernesto Valverde has thought to use these first parties of pre-season 2018 to put in practice this new training 4-3-3, more flexible. Already it did it against the Tottenham, where could see to a FC Barcelona more direct of face to the rival goal, and with marked extremes in some moments of the party.

Of face to the course of the season, and with the arrival of the key pieces, the trainer of the FC Barcelona would explain initially with Philippe Coutinho for one of the positions of attack, seconding to Luis Suárez and Leo Messi in the 4-3-3. Said alignment, precisely, would be the training type of the FC Barcelona the next season 2018-19, although they can enter variations in function of the rival.

It has fichado to Arthur Melo, a technical footballer and with a big future by in front, and pretends fichar to Rabiot or Of Jong, players with quality but also with physicist, to endow of balance to the centre of the field, where Busquets and Rakitic will be indisputable headlines, waiting for that Arthur, Denis Suárez or the future midfield player that fiche the Barça impogan in the order of priorities of Valverde.

Valverde Will bet by Coutinho in the attack

The case is that the 'Txingurri', at least for now, would not see to Ousmane Dembélé like an indisputable headline to play in attack beside Leo Messi and Luis Suárez. This does not want to say that it do not go to have of minutes, neither much less. In the parties in that it was not headline, probably was one of the first changes of Valverde to revolutionise the parties and finish to the opponents to base of speed and contragolpes.

To day of today, however, Valverde would prefer to Coutinho in attack given the tuning that has showed with Leo Messi and Luis Suárez since it arrived, and also to endow to the centre of the field of more consistency, was the one who was the new signing that arrive to reinforce said zone.

Also abrá that take into account to Carles Aleñá, that could turn into the big disclosure of the season if they give him opportunities. What is clear, are cuales are the alignments of Valverde, is that the Barça will go back to have a staff of the most competitive to struggle by all the titles in dispute. And if 'covered' as Arthur, Dembélé and Malcom explode... That they shiver the rivals.
