Calendar of FC Barcelona

The Barça has given a twist of 180 degrees until the moment under the orders of Ronald Koeman. The trainer has attained to rejuvenate to the staff and reduce the quantity of greater players of 30 years in the club. The defensive order, the pressure and the direct game have been one of the keys so that the Barcelona have won seven of nine possible points in the parties that has contested in LaLiga.

The 'Revolution Koeman' himself has had a positive effect in the team and begins to give the first results. From achieving the best version of Philippe Coutinho, the one who returned to the Camp Nou after his cession in the Bayern Munich, until finding him a place to Ansu Fati so that it lead the attack blaugrana. It is true that still has details for solving, like the position of Messi and Griezmann, but up to now, the plan has gone out him of wonder.

However, Koeman has to be attentive to each step that gives. The Dutch is conscious that, in the middle of the vote of censorship, his permanence in the club of the City Condal is not ensured and has to commit the lower quantity of possible errors for, in addition to achieving the greater possible quantity of titles, ensure his charge.

Big part of his future depends on what he do. It knows that it can not follow in its footsteps his compatriot Louis Go Gaal, of the one who was assistant during his first stage like trainer blaugrana. The Dutch won in the bench of the Camp Nou two consecutive Leagues and a Glass, in the season 1997-1998, but committed the error of "holandizar" to the staff culé.

The technician asked the signing of eight players of Holland: Reiziger, Bogarde, Hesp, Kluivert, Cocu, Zenden and Frank and Ronald of Boer. With the 'staff' technical and the trainer, the club added 12 Dutch. Although they Go Gaal was the one who incorporated to players like Carles Puyol, Reina, Victor Valdés, Gabri or Andrés Iniesta, have him given so much importance to players of his country happened him bill and did him happen to the history.

In the Barça of Koeman, to day of today, only there is a Dutch player: Frenkie of Jong. The midfield player arrived during the pertinent past summer of the Ajax of Ámsterdam and has won with talent and dedication his place in the first team.

During the window of transfer, the trainer culé tried to carry to the Camp Nou to two players: Georginio Wijnaldum, of the Liverpool, and Memphis Depay, of the Lyon, the one who was near to land in Barcelona. Both players are wishes of Ronald Koeman and are his compatriots.

The of Go Gaal was extreme

Ronald Koeman recognised recently in an interview to 'US' that the presence of Dutch players with Louis Go Gaal was "extreme". The technician recognised that it does not think that "can compare to this the current situation" because now only have to Frenkie, but also to "Alfred (Schreuder) and I in the personnel, are two Dutch, but in that then had eight or nine".

However, to Koeman would like him have to another compatriot in his staff. It recognised that Wijnaldum was in his list but the Barça was not had to pay what asked the Liverpool by him. In the case of Memphis Depay, the one who was near of recalar in the Camp Nou, to last hour LaLiga did not allow the signing because the club surpassed the 'Fair Play' financial.
