Marcos Alonso came up short again in his umpteenth opportunity to vindicate himself

If already this same Tuesday explained in FCBN that the continuity of Marcos Alonso in the FC Barcelona seems complicated thinking in the next season, after the duel of Champions in front of the Shakhtar Donetsk the situation shows even more dramatic. The defender has received a new titularity, his second consecutive in Europe, and again has remained to owe.

The Shakhtar-Barça has left quite clear why Alonso is the footballer (no goalkeeper) Barcelona with fewer official minutes. If the club decided to force his exit to the market of winter, Xavi would not throw him a lot of less and would win something of limit salarial to face other operations, solving even two problems with a same measure.

The exit of Marcos Alonso in 2024, almost guaranteeed

In principle it would have to Joao Cancel like eventual relief of Balde in the left side, what would maintain a balance of the changing room because the Portuguese is not too good acting. And, second, when having two competent head offices adaptable to the side (Koundé and Araújo), could open them more often in the band and, in this way, recover part of the stray solidity, giving continuity also to Iñigo Martínez and Christensen in the centre of the defence.

Marcos has not achieved, neither by show, incorporate to the attack with the depth that is used to to contribute Balde. It is also very true that neither Ferran has generated disequilibrium in the last third, by what the played by left band have not upset to the Ukrainian saga, but the problem for the Madrilenian is that this is not his first opportunity desaprovechada.

Xavi will have to rotar to Balde even less of what already has done it

As we said at the beginning, in the third day and also in front of the Shakhtar, Alonso had to be replaced by the canterano of 20 years, when showing that his first season was a big tarpaulin to a large extent by his work like head office of emergency. In the band does not seem to deliver what needs the game of the Barça and neither his good hit allows him be determinant with some centre to Robert Lewandowski, that go that it needs them many times.
