On a day in Sports City marked by the call for the selection with Iñigo Martinez as a novelty, Xavi He took advantage of the session to outline a starting eleven with some questions still to be answered. Two have already been resolved: the absence of a De Jong still to recover and with the forecast of a return for the end of this month of November before the Vallecano Ray and the ownership of Pedri after two games entering the team as a substitute against Real Sociedad and the Ukrainian team. Just four days and three training sessions to address the Barça- Alavés post debacle in Hamburg before the Shakhtar.
The lowering of Gavi due to suspension, the second match lost of the 16 of the season (the other also due to yellow cards against the Shakhtar in Montjuïc), forces the Egarense coach to rebuild the midfield. Until now, the youth player had helped strengthen the midfield, either as a second pivot or as an interior player. Xavi guess again to place Oriol Romeu, who will accompany Pedri. The sensations, whether you feel tired or not, will decide if you enter Gündogan oa Fermin. It is unlikely, although it cannot be ruled out, that he will opt for the four midfielders.
In defense he has a choice. I cancel He could rest after 12 consecutive games as a starter and his position would be occupied Koundé, relieved to play center back and committed to occupy the position. Araujo, Iñigo and Christensen The other positions would be distributed, with Balde returning to the left back. Marcos Alonso He has only played four starting games and never two in a row.
The possible return to the Classic drawing with the three forwards, essentially because it has more troops in attack. Joao Félix would regain ownership, Lewandowski I would continue at the offensive end and the other end will be disputed Raphinha, Ferran Torres and even himself Lamine Yamalwho has not started in three games, four in the last five games.
