In January, the FC Barcelona was deleted of the Supercopa of Spain. Already with Quique Setién in the Barcelona bench, the Catalan team was deleted of the Glass of the King to hands of the Athletic Club of Bilbao. Recently, the culés saw like the Real Madrid raised the title of LaLiga Santander . All this does that the Champions League was the only hope not to close a year in white.
Besides, Quique Setién knows that it plays it to him everything to a letter, since a bad paper in the Champions League could precipitate his goodbye in August. It is thus that, after some months studying his staff, the Cantabrian technician can have in mind the plan so that his team have options to recover the throne of the European football basing, as it can not be of another form, in the quality of Leo Messi.
The FC Barcelona is not practising a big football and, as already it saw in the party against the Naples of the past Saturday, knows that his captain goes to be the differential factor that makes possible the miracle. And by what could see in front of the Italians, Quique Setién seems to have a plan in mind to be able to take out to relucir the best version of Leo Messi to do that the Barcelona group can be competitive in front of a capital challenge as it will be it win to the Bayern of Munich.
In front of the Naples, could see that it advanced the position of Leo Messi to avoid physical wear in the tasks of creation of the game and do that it centre in his facet of goleador. The Argentinian star is a big assistant and a big footballer of team, but the FC Barcelona is a more lethal team when it achieves to approach to his star the most possible to the rival area to do him arrive balloons the further up possible.
In this plan, creative players like Frenkie of Jong or Riqui Puig can have a fundamental paper. Advance the position of Leo Messi supposes to lose a big canalizador of game in the medullary, by what said responsibility recaerá in the boots of the most technical midfield players of the team. His aim: move him the balloon to so that it receive more near of the rival goal and have more options to mark.
More presence in the area of Messi
Against the Naples, already saw to Leo Messi more striker and near to the goal, especially in actions like the goal that marked, the one who cancelled him or the penalti. The fact to have him more near of the area also will do that it run fewer metres and, therefore, that hold cooler during all the party, something that will be important in front of a so demanding rival like the Bayern of Munich. The miracle of the League of Champions can be feasible thanks to him. The one of always.
