resurrection on time in Mendizorroza

When the game was dying with a Barça turned into a lost soul with hardly any direction and practically entrusted to the snatches of Abde and the light of Pedri, a trademark combination of the house, which has been seen so many times in the most glorious era of the club, rescued three gold points in mendizorroza. Jordi Alba hung the ball with a change of orientation, Ferran Torres He narrowly broke the offside by coming off the right flank and with a touch with his right hand full of class without dropping the ball, he served the death pass to Frenkie de Jong, who scored on an empty goal at 88′. The Dutchman scored his second goal so far in League after debuting on 1-3 of Villarreal, precisely the first win away from Camp Nou, already with Xavi.

Very controversial for a campaign that is not honoring the 86 million invested by Barça in 2019, Frenkie ended up being the protagonist of a night in which he joined only for moments to the desire to rebel Abde Y Pedri. After a first half to fall asleep and given by the team, the Dutchman interpreted that the game needed more rhythm and played the role he played so many times in the Barça from Ronald Koeman, even starting from the central position. Without reaching his best version, his breaks offered options to break the wall of which in turn is the least scoring team in LaLiga. Frenkie I needed to rebel. It was known under the magnifying glass behind his poor Classic as a starter in the Super Cup coming out, yes, of an elongation, which cost him the substitution in the Cup in Bilbao.

Xavi gave him in Vitoria another chance, ahead of Nico Gonzalez again. A sign of his confidence in a footballer to whom he always praised when he trained the Al Sadd Qatari. “I have to improve but it is not a disaster either”, he claimed Frenkie after the game, without showing his chest but feeling somewhat hurt for being the target of criticism within the irregular general performance of the current exercise.

His top scorer is still low (he scored three goals in the last league) but his aim to save the Barça it is total. In addition to the passenger 0-1 before the Villarreal this course, the definitive 2-1 to the Real society, 0-1 in Huesca and the first from 0-2 in Elche runs a campaign. Frenkie, in search of its role in the gear of Xavi like many others, he is not ready to throw in the towel. You can call the Chelsea or the Bayern that at the moment he does not think about leaving. In Vitoria it caught air but it’s time to continue accelerating until May. And then more.
