Mission Impossible

The data was revealed by Mr. Chip on his Twitter account and it reveals the situation in which Barcelona is in this League championship, which is already becoming an impossible mission for the Blaugrana. The AS collaborator explained that in the entire history of LaLiga there has not been any team that has been able to overcome 12 points with respect to the leader of the competition.

At the moment, Atlético de Madrid distance Barcelona by 12 points, both teams have played ten games, two less than those marked on the league calendar.

The circumstance also occurs that Barcelona has stumbled again at the first exchange when you have found the simplest section of the calendar. A circumstance that led the Blaugrana coach to publicly declare that the team's goal to get hooked on LaLiga was to win all the games that remained until the end of the year. It is assumed that if he said it in public it is because he had previously spoken in the dressing room with his players, who failed him at the first opportunity perpetrando an unpresentable match against Cádiz, a recently promoted team against which they made serious individual errors that ended up costing three points that returned Barça to the starting box. The one in which the season started after the 2-8 against Bayern Munich in Lisbon.

It seems clear that Koeman cannot start his project, in which there are too many doubts that outweigh a technician fighting all the elements. To begin with, against injuries and then against the volcanic situation of an entity in which even the president of the manager, Carles Tusquets, has revealed himself as an internal enemy.

The performance of what should be the key pieces of your team is, to say the least, uneven. Dembélé or Coutinho continue without clearing the doubts that they sowed since they arrived at the club and the burden of the controversy with Messi, who in August asked to leave Barcelona, ​​continues to drag on, making it clear that the wound is not seared.

After the defeat in Cádiz, the start of Barcelona's domestic season is bleak with a eighth place after having played ten games of which he has only won 4, two draws and four defeats. Away from home, the numbers are for a team from the lower zone of the table, with only one victory, one draw and three losses.

A performance that contrasts with that achieved in the Champions League, where Barcelona's record is immaculate, just as it is in the group stage. However, the march in LaLiga can influence the performance of a team that has not seen itself in such a situation for many years.
