Ronald Koeman made it clear that he was not happy with the performance of the three FC Barcelona captains. The Dutchman, voluntarily or involuntarily, signaled them all by substituting them before the end of the match against Benfica

Calendar of FC Barcelona

To Ronald Koeman did not shiver him the pulse against the Benfica and the Dutch did not doubt in doing the changes that believed timely without mattering him the weight of the players that went to the bench. Three of them were the captains of the FC Barcelona, Sergio Busquets, Sergi Roberto and Gerard Hammered, that were substituted and remained more than distinguished by his trainer against the Portuguese.

The first in going to the bank was the central, that definitely was the one who remained more 'touched' after the duel in front of the lusos. The '3' lasted little more than half hour in the terrain of game and went with the acting in the minute 33 to give entrance to Gavi. The defender was suffering a lot in defence, was arriving late to all the crosses and, besides, shortly before the change was about to to go to the street because they forgave him the second yellow.

Koeman Did not have any objection in substituting to Hammered to avoid that the Barcelona could remain with one less in the first time. The defender, having yellow, was not centred, was not fine and was suffering, by what had not been odd that had arrived to destiempo in some entrance that had cost him another cardboard and that had commanded him to the street. Thus, in spite of the importance of the change and in spite of leaving distinguished to the third captain, had some sense do what did.

Busquets held more in the crash, but after the disastrous second part that was doing the Barça his trainer saw that it was the moment to change him. The one of Badia was having a bad time it in front of the pressure of the Benfica, was very uncomfortable and was not imposing. By all this, Nico González went out by him in the 68, still with 1-0 in the marker and with options of traced back. A 'touch' to the 'capi' of the Barcelona picture, to the that the years begin him to weigh.

The change of Sergi Roberto did not understand

On the other hand, the change of Sergi Roberto was the most incomprehensible of all, since it did in the minute 89 with the already stray duel. Before Eric García went to the street expelled, Koeman already was preparing the replacement. Óscar Mingueza jumped to the field by the one of Reus, that had a night to forget and did not give the level like carrilero. An odd decision in it futbolístico that few understood during the party.

Anybody knows if the fact to change to the three captains along the meeting was a message of the trainer barcelonista or was a coincidence. Only the own Dutch is conscious of why did what did and changed to who changed. The one of this Wednesday could be his last duel like technician of the Barcelona, by what perhaps decided to leave clear who commands a last time.
