The Cathedral left the Barça without its two head offices. Piqué’s muscle injury and the direct red for Eric will force Koeman to play with Araujo and Lenglet against Getafe. The problem, then, is not in the starting line-up but in the bench. On it will sit a Mingueza no rhythm of competition after his two injuries at the Olympics. So logic would say that if Umtiti he is in shape, he would have to be in the call for next Sunday in case an emergency arises. But the club dilemma is interesting: is it counted or not counted? Once you have been told that you have to look for life, is it consistent to use it as that glass that must be broken in case of fire to access the hose?

Before playing in Bilbao, Koeman -who has the gift of speaking clearly- acknowledged that “Umtiti and Pjanic it is very difficult for them to play here ”. At another time, he said that the only left-handed center-back he has is Lenglet and thus showed that Umtiti it’s no longer in your head. But the reality is that Barça He offered the letter of freedom to Umtiti and Pjanic on July 4 and, almost two months later, both are still at the Camp Nou. They neither find a team that fulfills their sporting aspirations nor find a club that pays them what they charge here. So, if he has a number and is part of the squad … With the call we will see if the club puts the principles or the three points first.
