Xavi Hernández still is looking for the 'key' so that his team show the best offensive version possible. And it will be an arduous task because, playing with four midfield players, loses a square in attack and more than once Robert Lewandowski has felt uncomfortable with the drawing. Against the Getafe, went a clear example. It is thus that the entrance of the revulsivos, especially in this first stretch of the season, can be decisive for the FC Barcelona.

Raphinha, that was being the most dangerous of the Barcelona, was expelled before the rest and Xavi sacrificed to Andreas Christensen to reinforce the attack with Ez Abde, the one who dinamizó the attack and printed desborde in the field of the Getafe... But it was not sufficient and the trainer egarense had to follow throwing of youth from the bench and entered the 'novelty' of a Lamine Yamal that already it is doing a gap in the plans of the blaugrana.

Lamine Yamal 'seat' to Ferran Torres in the bench

The attacker, of 16 years, already had left very good feelings in the minutes that had played in the Trophy Joan Gamper. His desparpajo, speed and capacity to escape of the rivals has not happened unobserved in the Barça and aims very high if it follows to this rhythm. It went in to the 76 minutes of the party, before that Ansu Fati or Ferran Torres that it remained in the bench in the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez.

Although the Barcelona were not especially hit in the visit to the Getafe, the player of The Masia had sufficient time to leave several details of quality. Xavi wanted him to try desestabilizar to a very compact defence and that was not leaving spaces to attack neither test to David Soria. Yamal took seriously the task and contributed a different rhythm to the team. It appeared, first, to assist in depth to Pedri González and shortly after commanded a good balloon so that Ansu Fati tried to beat to the guardameta local, but was desacertado.

The Barça improves with the youngsters

As it happened against the Tottenham, in the trophy Joan Gamper, the Barça had more offensive resources when the youngest players went in in the field. Although they were not many the clear occasions, in front of the Getafe were much more dangerous when Lamine and Ansu were the companions of Robert Lewandowski in the attack... And it will cause that Xavi can replantearse a lot of things, especially in the day that comes, in which it will not have Raphinha by sanction.
