Valverde charges five cracks of Barça to pay Coutinho

The 'Txingurri' has a lethal plan to win the triplet

Pep Guardiola won the treble in his first year as coach of FC Barcelona . Luis Enrique also achieved it the year of his debut. Ernesto Valverde does not want to be less.

The Txingurri knows that Leo Messi in his team can do wonders if the other players accompany. The key is to have happy and motivated the Argentine star.

That's why the signing of Philippe Coutinho was so important . Because the costumes-some members, not all-were asking for it. Especially Luis Suárez and Messi himself .

Now, Valverde has a very solvent owner team and wardrobe background. It has been a long time since Barça is remembered with so many variations.

Dembelé was a player longed for by the coaching staff regardless of whether Neymar was on the team. He was tried to sign a year earlier to be a substitute.

With the departure of the Brazilian, the French striker could not be the direct substitute. Coutinho arrives to have that role. But the best of all is that they can be complementary.

Multiple offensive variants

Counting that Messi and Suarez are untouchable, different very interesting variables are presented. A 4-3-3 with Iniesta and Coutihno on the left, for example, and without Dembelé.

Or a 4-2-3-1 with Iniesta resting in La Liga and Coutinho resting in Champions , but with Dembelé in the right hand.

And then there is the center of the field. Busquets is immovable, but Paulinho and Rakitic will rest more from now on. The minutes will be divided and they will play depending on the needs.

The madness of Valverde

This club full of variants has cost a high price: 145 and 160 million euros for Dembelé and Coutinho -variables included- plus 40 million of Paulinho.

In total, 350 million of euros in three players called to have a specific weight in the team. But they will not even be permanent holders. It seems crazy.

The other price that you have to pay is sports. And so has Ernesto Valverde , who with the calls of José Arnáiz has made clear who does not want on the team.

The designated

Gerard Deulofeu and Aleix Vidal have to look for life. And they join the already discarded Arda Turan , which is expected to leave for Besiktas.

To these three players we must add Rafinha , who will have practically impossible to play. He even has Sergi Roberto ahead .

Denis, however, will remain on the team with the aim of being the future relay of Iniesta , if he endures the price of playing less and less. The manchego intends to continue for a long time.

Paco Alcácer saves himself

Nor will it be easy for André Gomes , who will be the alternative to Iniesta, Rakitic , Paulinho and Busquets. To little that it can, the Barça will sell it this January.

And the one that seems that it is possible to be saved of the burning, although it will play little and less when it recovers, is Paco Alcácer. The Valencia striker will be the relief of Luis Suarez as long as Valverde does not choose to put Messi as reference above.
