The resounding victory of the National Team unleashes criticism of the FC Barcelona coach at the level of several Barça players. What do you do differently at your club?
Spain has thrashed mercilessly in their first match in the Qatar World Cup 2022, but in this country not even with a resounding 7-0 can you stop looking for a designated player. Because Luis Enrique has so much animosity and there is so much division between Real Madrid and Culés that someone had to be pointed out.
As was the case in South Africa, this National Team is made up mostly of FC Barcelona players. Furthermore, among them several they are indisputable holders. Seeing the level shown above all by the midfield trio, Gavi, Pedri and Busquets, comparisons are inevitable.
Xavi the great signal of the victory of Spain
In this way it is that the only one indicated with the victory of Spain is none other than Xavi Hernández. The former beacon of the Selection in the titles obtained between 2008 and 2012 have been rained criticism from all areas. And it is that the performance of several of his footballers with Luis Enrique leave the current coach of FC Barcelona in a bad way.
In that order of ideas, with the 7-0 win over Costa Rica, several of those who shone were Busquets, Gavi, Pedri, Jordi Alba and Ferran Torres. They want to retire Busquets and Alba, Gavi is a substitute and Ferrán does not give the level to play for Barça. The only person responsible in this regard can only be the coach.
The Barcelona coach is not capable of making the same pieces work
Xavi hasn’t come off well and is the big player in Spain’s victory, since in ‘La Roja’, several of their players have a different rhythm. It cannot be that Jordi Alba goes from early retirement to rise up the band like Roberto Carlos. Or that Busquets steals in the opposite field as if we were in 2010.
In the end, Spain is a country of clubs and the debate will always be on the table. But it seems undeniable that Luis Enrique, with his methods, gets more out of the FC Barcelona players than the Barça team itself. And that in Barcelona, those players who stand out in Spain, have figures like Dembélé or Lewandowski to facilitate their work.
