Barça's 1x1 so far in the 2023/24 preseason

The FC Barcelona returned this Wednesday of his turns of 15 days by United States and now will have of little more than a week to prepare the official start of the new course, having also the Trophy Joan Gamper in front of the Tottenham next Tuesday. Like this the things, already almost all the conclusions seem written for the Barcelona staff, understanding that it still will remain almost a month with the open market.

Already regarding performances that could reinforce or signal to some footballers in the pre-season of the Barça, if it does not remain too margin. Thus, in FCBN present you our 1x1 of what has been able to observe in the pre-season culé, highlighting that up to now the ones of Xavi played only three friendly, in relation to the four that was foreseen to this height of the preparation.

Ter Stegen

The German, that is now the second captain of the staff, kept to zero the goal in the Classical, with a lot of help of the sticks and showed like one of the leaders of the staff, in the personal and in the sportive. It will go back to be one of the pillars of the Barça of Xavi after contesting a party and half of the three, remaining in the bench in front of the AC Milan.

Iñaki Crag

The canterano had the another half of the available minutes in the goal culé and showed in front of the Italians that is prepared to defend the goal of the Barça with guarantees when it need him . In front of the Arsenal suffered a pair of goals, any with responsibility.

Ronald Araújo

The new third Barcelona captain alternated between head office and lateral, to brake to Vinicius and to Leâo. Everything indicates that it will go on doing it when have extremes so desequilibrantes the rival team, being an authentic safe of life for Xavi, although certainly it received a lot of criticisms by a pair of entrances in front of the Arsenal, in a party that kept to the limit between all the players.

Dest

If the past pre-season sentenced to the American to remain without a place in the staff and have to go out yielded, in this occasion has confirmed that it can not keep on being player culé. The defender was late in all his coverages, went always surpassed by the rival attackers and in attack never could contribute, showing much slower of what remembered him .

Sergi Roberto

The new first captain remained exposed like side in the crash in front of the Arsenal, but his versatility did that Xavi used him also of mediocentro and inner, positions where showed much abler and comfortable, by what would seem that they will be his main zones in the field if finally it adds a natural right side.

Koundé

The Frenchman leave good feelings, being one of the footballers of the Barça that more minutes contested. The defender has been very well, especially in his role of head office, having flawless parties in front of the Milan and Real Madrid.

Christensen

Conditioned by the annoyances that did that it abandoned the Barça-Madrid when it was one of the headlines chosen in the eleven of gala, the Danish could not show all his good present, but if it notices his superiority with the option of Eric García. Certainly it seems liable to injuries, but with continuity seems difficult that can take him out of the team.

Eric García

Precisely the Spanish defender was used more than what expected because of the annoyances of Christensen and the injury that keeps to Íñigo Martínez being low. The ex City added almost 200 minutes and fulfilled properly in a lot of them. Certainly it left some error in exit, but has been reliable until the moment, although it seems to be far to be important for Xavi.

Marcos Alonso

The side is in a similar situation to the one of Eric, with regard to that sees him moved away to be able to compete with the headline. Balde Is recovered to 100% and this leaves to the ex Chelsea like an interesting spare, but little more. Certainly it had a lot of problems with Saka in the first party, but in front of the Milan saw him much solider, delivering possibilities to add in attack.

Alejandro Balde

As it happened in the 2022, the performance of the canterano has been more than positive in pre-season. The physicist of the youngster follows going through on of all the one who want to and seems that it will be one of the keys of this new Barça, where the left extreme will be replaced by a mediocampista from the start of the course.

Oriol Romeu

The new mediocentro of the Barça left a big impact from his arrival, especially because it went in to the team of immediate way. Already aa added more than 200 minutes up to now and could show that the confidence of Xavi in giving him a so key place has been very backed. The adaptation noticed already against the Madrid and seems that if there are not injuries will play almost everything with the culés.

Pedri

The Canarian has work a lot in improving his physicist these last months for now yes contest a complete campaign, by what is normal to have it seen many times something reserved of his part, and also of the own technical body. When it has wanted to it left all his quality on the field, although it was missing him Gavi like his partner accustomed in front of the physical annoyances of the Andalusian.

Frenkie Of Jong

Unlike some another culé, the Dutch seems that it no longer has gone back backwards after having strengthened in the XI of the Barça. The mediocampista is being a leader in the creation of game, being besides now one of the four captains. It has taken chevrons and beside Oriol seem the attendants to initiate each possession and attack of the Barcelona team.

Gündogan

The German has showed in this pre-season that has a reading of privileged game and a talent for the game asociativo that fits perfectly with what pretends Xavi. For now, and without any type of injury, will follow adding increasingly to the attack and will try to go back to connect with his excompañero Lewandowski.

Fermín López

Little and a lot to say of the big surprise culé. Simply it has showed that it can be a player of First Division in front of million viewers. Golazo Of left-handed in front of the Madrid and several good minutes in the rest of the pre-season, one that had initiated already surprised to his own new mates during the first trainings.

Raphinha

The Brazilian began had to win the place and could fit even a goal of fault -although with detour-, encarando always without fear, being much more desequilibrante in front of the Milan, where also presionó after loss many times. Now, the attacker remains like the owner of the position and will be able to take more confidence and leadership that in his first year.

Dembélé

The French was of the best of the Barça in front of the Real Madrid, but finally his performance on the field has remained sideways. The Frenchman has decided to leave to few days to initiate LaLiga and will follow his career in the PSG, a decision that has left to a lot of culés with a feeling of disappointment, but understanding that the stage could have been worse the next year.

Lewandowski

The goleador of Xavi put the first goal of the pre-season, as it could not be of another way, but little by little was regulating his efforts when knowing that the project rests largely in his goals. Already surpassing the 30 years by enough, Lewy delivered to the maximum when it was on the field, but hardly surpassed the 150 minutes, a clear sample that it will try to arrive the best possible to the start of the course.

Ansu Fati, Abde and Ferran Torres

The three left extremes of the Barça received the same minutes (102) during turns it of pre-season and seems that they will close the preparation in a similar stage. So much Ansu like Abde raised the hand to be possible reemplazantes of Dembélé, assisting and marking -Fati with a golazo in front of the Milan- and hinting that the continuity of both has to be ensured. Ferran, by his part, marked a pair of so many -the only of the team- and seems that it will be the attendant to give rest to Lewandowski in the centre of attack. All, with positive pre-season up to now.

Lesionados

Iñigo Martínez and Gavi have remained without seeing minutes in United States and does not seem too likely that can be on the lawn in the Gamper. Like this the things, both culés expect to be recovered in this same of August, although the good news is that Xavi does not need to force them so that they are smart of hasty way.

Testimoniales

The technical body carried almost 10 canteranos for United States and many debuted. Only Ander remained without seeing minutes, beside a Lenglet already descartado since I initiate the preparation, whereas footballers very talentosos like Casadó, Faye and Garrido, all with six minutes contested. Besides, Lamine Yamal himself added little more than 30 minutes and left some destellos very important.
