There are dozens of very good players in the First and Second RFEF fields. Football players who probably have the same or more quality than many colleagues who are in Primera. But winning in football is complicated. There are multiple factors involved. Luck, injuries, confidence, down to earth, a conducive environment, a culture of effort, knowing how to run away from temptations… and having a coach who bet on you. A year ago now, during the non-negotiable beer after the football 7 matches in the upper part of Barcelona, ​​I discovered that one of the boys I had shared a team with had played for Barça. He was one of those who had been good. Of the chosen ones All his life at the highest level sharing a dressing room with some of the footballers who marked an era at Barça, those of the generation of 87. But the moment of truth came and the coach in turn preferred another. bad season Changes. Assignments. Until he was 30 years old, he had given up football and was playing in one of the thousand 7-a-side football leagues in our country. And like this guy, thousands. Having a coach who trusts you at the key moment can make the difference between making a living and being, say, international or ending up on an artificial turf pitch in front of five hundred fans. Where would Busquets or Pedro be if Guardiola had not refished them for his subsidiary?

Xavi must have his own bets. Create footballers. Model them from youth. His Busquets and Pedro. Xavi’s cottage. Context pushes you to be brave. Last year’s League frees you from emergencies. The group is an interesting mix of established veterans who need to provide leadership and hungry youngsters with the ability to grow. On top of that, financial constraints inevitably lead you to choose this path. Before bringing in a mid-level footballer, who won’t make a difference, Xavi should know how to get the most out of a young footballer from the squad who knows the house and identifies with the club: make him a starter. For now, even though he made his debut under Koeman, Balde has to be credited to him. And the result is spectacular. Obviously, it’s not about demagoguery, neither are they all useful and you can’t have a team made up only of young people from the youth academy. But, anticipating that it will be necessary to tighten the belt, not only because they will come crooked, Xavi should turn a couple of B footballers into first team players. Or at least consolidate Nico and Abde. History tells us: when this model has been chosen, the best results have been obtained.
