Xavi will consolidate his commitment to Christensen in the center of the field

Andreas Christensen seems that it goes to have a very distinct role to the that is accustomed in what it subtracts of season. Except that no of the level in the next parties of the FC Barcelona, the plan of Xavi Hernández goes through to do of the Danish the mediocentro of the team from now. The trainer egarense already did his first 'experiment' in Vitoria against the Alavés, obtaining very good results, and everything aims to that will consolidate this bet in front of the Granada this Sunday in Montjuïc.

The technician carries quite time testing in the trainings with the Nordic of pivote to prepare his 'debut'. Always it has said that it was an interesting option by his good deal of balloon, but the one of Terrassa has not wanted to risk until not to have it worked in the sessions. Once adapted to the midfield as 'anchor' to give him more freedom to Frenkie of Jong and can advance to Pedri and Gündogan, did not doubt in taking out him in Mendizorroza to put in practical all this.

The true is that Christesen gave a good level does a week in front of the Alavés, playing easy to one or two touch and having criterion with the ball. But in Vitoria happened something even more important that his good individual performance, and was the very that seated him to the team and to his mates of the midfield that he went the pivote. The 'vikingo' balanced to the group and gave him more solidity with and especially without ball, that is just what was missing and what Xavi looked for putting him here.
