Calendar of FC Barcelona

After a première ilusionante with 3 goals in his first two parties like titling, the offensive contribution of Joao Félix has dissipated with the happen of the weeks. The Saturday, the one of Viseo kept in the eleven of Xavi Hernández, but could not contribute practically at all in attack in the 70 minutes that was on the green. At the end, the egarense put to Lamine Yamal in his place looking for a reaction that recently arrived in the discount thanks to Ronald Araújo.

And it is that, in front of the Real Sociedad, Félix grieve completed 20 passes, without finish neither occasions of goal generated and with a yellow by a rifirrafe with Brais Méndez in the second part. Although his effectiveness of passes was very high (95 %), the luso was instrascendente, unable to generate danger by left neither to associate with Robert Lewandowski that neither contributed at all while it was in the field.

The Barça begins to miss the offensive contribution of Joao Félix

With the party in front of the Real, are nine the apparitions of the '14' without converting with the Barça and the team begins to miss his offensive contribution, since in the middle of this bad series goleadora the player yielded by the Athletic of Madrid adds 3 assistances, one of them valedora of three points in front of the Seville. Also it had assisted in front of Celtic and Mallorca, two days where the ones of Xavi happened it really bad.

In this sense, also concerns that the mediapunta have been a fixed change in the complement for the egarense. In the Classical, Raphinha ingresó in his place in the cuerto of final hour. In front of the Real, Lamine followed suit five minutes before. By Champions neither completed the 90 minutes in front of Port wine and Shakhtar, two duels where the Barça suffered much more of the expected. Joao Félix needs to go back to be determinant. Of the contrary, with the returns of Pedri and Raphinha, can lose his place in the XI.
