The importance of bragging about an idea at Barça

by time news

BarcelonaLooking at the numbers, there is not a single objection that can be made to this Barça. He finished the first round with 50 points in the projection of the best Leagues in history, he has conceded only seven goals in 19 games, which had never happened (the best record so far was nine goals in 2015 and 2018) , and in fourteen games Ter Stegen has managed to keep a clean sheet. The joy, the optimism, are justified because the statistics are magnificent and even more so after the good game displayed by the team in their last game against Betis, but there are those who prefer to forget that only a week ago to be nowhere near as bright on the visit to Montilivi.

They won, yes. As they did against Getafe and Atlético, for example, and with the wins, the lead and the five-point advantage over Real Madrid, the overall satisfaction is reasonable. Is Barça favorite to win the championship? Undoubtedly, but it is also not a bad idea to pay attention to the prudence of Xavi Hernández, who in the preview of the clash against Sevilla presented himself only as a simple candidate for the title despite the shower of praise that has fallen on him in recent days. He has been the first to admit that some triumphs have not come through the game, and he knows the club and the environment well enough to know that embracing results is bread for today and bread for tomorrow. That the how is important, and that’s precisely why he claimed it after beating Benito Villamarín: because he could. Now it just needs to have some continuity. That in addition to the numbers, you can continue to boast about the idea.

In this League of Two, Ancelotti’s Madrid face a crazy schedule and seem to be in good shape, but have already shown a few times that they are adept at defying logic and have the advantage of knowing that no one will ask you for explanations about how. If Courtois stops and Benzema scores it will be enough, so Barça will do well to take advantage of the increase in the fabulous statistics in order not to lose a style, a way, that is considered indispensable. Because in addition to winning, leaving the rivals without arguments is much more enjoyable. Depriving yourself of this pleasure would be a shame.
