Barcelona to rearrange lineup for Spanish Supercup after being hit with two injuries
Xavi’s Defensive Woes in Barcelona
Constant Injury Woes
Injuries have been a constant issue for Barcelona, making it difficult for Xavi Hernandez to maintain continuity and execute his strategies. With Inigo Martinez and Joao Cancelo both dealing with injuries, the team is facing uncertainty in their defensive lineup.
Defenders’ Return and Role
The potential return of Alejandro Balde offers some hope for Barcelona, but with Joao Cancelo out for the semi-final, Xavi’s choices for the wing-back role are limited. Should Xavi opt for a back four, he has several options to consider, but the team’s defensive struggles remain a significant concern.
Defensive Woes Continue
Barcelona’s defensive problems have persisted throughout the season, with little improvement even with changes in the lineup. Inaki Pena’s performance in goal has been underwhelming, and the team’s offensive capabilities have not been sufficient to offset their defensive shortcomings. Without addressing these issues, Barcelona’s success this season remains uncertain.
