Claude Puel, ancient trainer of teams like Monaco or Lille, has conceded an extensive interview to 'El País' in which it has spoken on the FC Barcelona, possible signings and solutions to improve the competitiveness of the Barcelona team, that does not work the same in the pressure without balloon that antaño and, in consequence, is used to to suffer more the tackled offensive of the rival teams.
In relation to the hypothetical arrival of Alexandre Lacazette, a forward that is being linked with relative strength with the FC Barcelona in the last weeks, Claude Puel thinks that could fit to perfection in the combined culé. "Lacazette Can be a player like Luis Suárez. It can go down to the midfield to play a bit and ask the balloon to the space. For me, he could do it very, very well in the Barcelona".
Puel Is of which thinks that Luis Suárez has lost "physical conditions" in these last years, and that needs the help of his mates to be able to surrender to big level. Besides, it thinks that it does not favour him the type of game to the that is playing the FC Barcelona under the control of Ernesto Valverde, since the Uruguayan every time touches fewer balloons.
"In a team that do not serve him a lot of balloons, would be in difficulties because it has lost speed to do the difference only. It knows desmarcarse, go in depth and ask the ball, because it is goleador. But it needs something more", has analysed Puel on the situation of Luis Suárez, that since it landed the 'Txingurri' in the Barcelona bench has gone going down progressively his production goleadora.
Luis Suárez needs reliefs in the attack culé
From here that the FC Barcelona was looking for to an able forward to relieve when it do lacking to the charrúa, that to his 32 years no longer can keep the same figures goleadoras that when it landed in the club in summer of 2014, pertinent of the Liverpool.
In addition to Alexandre Lacazette, lately has linked to the Barça with other attackers like Luka Jovic, Swindle Werner or Piatek. The time will say if any of them finish coming, although it is more likely that the FC Barcelona bet finally by the contracting of Antoine Griezmann. The French star, this yes, would not be a direct substitute of Luis Suárez when treating more than a leading second.
