Xavi dreams of a combat-ready team.
Rumors about Ronaldo to put pressure on Bayern
Agent Mendes has so many great players in his “bondage” that the encounter with Laporta was not sensational. Joan knows this as Xavi and Messi talk on the phone and Lionel suggests a return to Barcelona next summer, his contract with PSG only until mid-2023 the president of the Catalans needs a change in the market.
Otherwise, Xavi will not have a team with which to rush into the battle with Real Madrid. And not in one taken El Clasico. The 4-0 win did not help the team get back into shape and win the Europa League. Barcelona’s crew potential is limited while there are serious financial inconsistencies. Laporta discussed the fate of Leau, Ruben Neves and Bernardo Silva with Mendes, but this is a conversation about dreams.
Only the same midfielder and manager Guadiola allowed Bernardo to leave Manchester City. Josep has moved forward Torres to his native Catalonia, and now the sun of Manchester football is on the horizon. Ronaldo wants to leave. It is clear that Laporta could start rumors about a contract with the Portuguese to step up talks with Bayern over the king of Polish football – Lewandowski.
Robert insists on moving to Spain, but so far the Catalans have not convinced Kahn and Salihamidzic. But the appearance of rumors about Cristiano could motivate the Germans to agree with the Polish striker’s decision. Bayern fans also write that the club does not treat Lewandowski very well. The striker came for free, scored goals and won trophies for many years. We must let go in peace.
Xavi has a decent middle lane
Gavi and Pedri are great guys that Hernandez will gladly spend thousands of minutes on the pitch. Busquets stays, Kessier has arrived. In addition, he named the manager as a reason to leave the Milan champion due to the Barcelona crisis. Xavi is respected. Frenkie de Jong himself is in no hurry at Manchester, although United insists. The Catalans have issued statements relieving them of responsibility in the event of a transfer, but even this is a complicated game.
Laporta understands that money is needed, Frankie is the most expensive of those you can part with. Now the defeated wolves are at the helm of Barcelona. Around Bernardo Silva – it is possible that the Portuguese offer a place on the front wing, not in the middle of the field. Moreover, despite the presence of Fati and the negotiation with Dembele, Usman seems to remain, ready to sign a two-year contract, it will be possible to use both Gavi and Torres on the edges.
Perhaps, in some games, Kessier will ensure Busquets, because nobody cares about setting up a triangle with Pedri in the role of the “tens”. Barcelona Xavi has a young heart. He remains to check the kidneys and limbs. But to “fix” these parts of the team you need money. It’s bad for the club that the people Xavi absolutely doesn’t need on the squad have dropped so much in price, because the release list is longer than the signing squad.
On the list are Griezmann, Depay, Braithwaite and Pjanic, Puig, Umtiti and Lenglet. But if you add them to the two de Jongs, Coutinho and Alves, then you need a crowd of reservists. Laporta is aiming for free agents, but Alonso and Azpilicueta have yet to join Kessier and Christensen. There are great players in the center of the pitch, but the defense and attacking center are weak points. At the forefront are Luc de Jong and Aubameyang, unreliable options for obvious reasons.
Without defense and attacker, tiki-taka will not work.
Barcelona do not need Ronaldo, just as Cristiano does not need the blaugrana. Despite the whistles of individual Real Madrid fans towards him, the Portuguese will not cross himself from the list of creamy legends. The move to the Catalan club will be perceived in Madrid as a betrayal. And Xavi will betray expectations if, without the worst formation that emerges after the transfers, he does not give decent football. “Barcelona” is far from financial well-being, but the reputation allows you to repay debts with new loans. So they live, in parallel dreaming of strong protection. Barcelona are interested in Kunde. Araujo is fine, but Piqué has problems with health, aptitude for work and communication with the club management, because Gerard was in business, a young student with whom he was having an affair, and did not organize small breaks.
In the world of football management, Barcelona fans would like to replace Ter Stegen with a more predictable goalkeeper, but the German isn’t too bad. Rather, the swings in his game reflect the general state of the defense. Xavi needs to work with the team’s goalposts. If the defense starts playing like a regular giant, and in the middle of the attack the passes go to Lewandowski, then Barcelona will tactically become a significant team.
It is hardly worth playing 3-5-2, as there is not yet a great right flank, but the decision to let Alves go speaks of the desire to find a real rival for Dest and Roberto. Yes, and Alba on the left has aged. But just take full-backs, even veterans like Azpilicueta and Alonso, because Xavi doesn’t worry about the flanks, neither in attack nor in defense. It is also important to give the stubborn Bayern a squeeze, without Lewandowski the polenta will be tasteless.
Maybe Aubameyang fans will try to show that Pierre-Emerick is beautiful. But Arteta will argue with you. The Gabonese have had problems with discipline. Already at the beginning of his career at Milan they realized that Aubameyang was a capricious person. Barcelona definitely need a stubborn professional Lewandowski. At the same time useful to Bernard. Portuguese is incredibly confident. If Kessie is brawn and bravery, Silva is like Modric with gaming intelligence.
Bernardo has not exhausted his ambitions in the “citizens”, he wants to become the first violin. And it is significant that the great players still choose Barcelona. It is good to be a team with history and identity in the years of the club’s terrible financial crisis. Lewandowski and Silva would have found more stable teams but are willing to take risks with Xavi. Since the scouts and the school have given a couple of young boys, the new Barcelona will have a chance to surprise.
The subs are holding on to contracts, but Araujo, Pedri and Gavi, if they keep working hard, could become world-class players. Yes, and Real Madrid in La Liga can help the blaugrana. In the last ten years, despite Ronaldo and the European victories, the “creamy” have become Spanish champions only three times. Barcelona have six titles, but the last one is three years old. When Lewandowski arrives, don’t rush to bet all your money on an easy Real Madrid title.
