GUARDIOLA MADE HIS SELECTION FOR THE CLASSIC

Pep Guardiola’s decision to grant rest to thirteen players for the match against BATE Borisov has served to provide the first clues about what will be the preparation of the starting lineup on Saturday to face Real Madrid in the Bernabeu classic.

The Santpedor has clear main parts in the coming days and eventually to meditate how to fit them to deal a new blow to the whole of Mourinho.

Of the thirteen elected, nine of them seem to have secured a place in the team. Victor Valdes is the sticks, Alves, Abidal and Mascherano form in the defense, Busquets, Xavi and Iniesta formed the midfield, while Cesc andMessi will be on offense.

From this backbone, two positions remain to be decided among four candidates. Puyol, Keita, Villa and Alexis Sanchez will fight for a place in the team’s mission is to revive the options Barca fight for the league title.

If Guardiola does not back down and comply with the plan that has been meditating for weeks, would be input Puyol on the bench. The Guardiola is well aware of the option to play with a 3-4-3 and the three defenders who are in better shape and are faster with Alves, Abidal and Mascherano.

Yes, the captain is always an element to consider in these types of games, as demonstrated last season. Puyol was vital in the semifinals of the Champions at left. The player was sacrificed, despite his sore knee and was crucial to reach the final at Wembley.

In midfield, Seydou Keita has emerged as the fourth candidate for the midfield in case Guardiola opted for the risky 3-4-3. The mall would be the correction to compensate for the core. Would move to pivot when Busquets was delayed to help Mascherano in central defense and would be a solution in the center of the field in attack to secure possession.

In addition, Keita very well defended the actions of the opposing pieces with its powerful air. These are some of the virtues that can lead to Santpedor to place the African in the starting lineup.

The presence of a spot in Keita would be disputed attack that Villa and Alexis Sanchez. The `Guaje Is part with the advantage of always having answered the big races. The best example was at the Bernabeu in the first leg of the Super Cup when he rescued the team in the most delicate moments with a goal or penalty forcing the goal that served to tie last season. Alexis, meanwhile, said more intense pressure.

MISSION POSSIBLE BARCA AT THE BERNABEU

In Madrid have ‘buried’ at FC Barcelona. They talk about end of cycle of crisis, irreparable cracks … They say the Titanic is sinking and its descent into the darkest depths of darkness and is only a matter of time. But they forget that Pep Guardiola’s team only lost one game against Real Madrid. And they have played two or three.Not five. They have played eleven. And he lost the final of the Copa del Rey, was in overtime and after scoring a goal disallowed for offside course. In addition, at his enemy, account wins games (three) and ties (two).

Everyone knows that the Madrid team is a good time, it has gained in strength and effectiveness.But no one should escape that Barca has already taken a title this season: the Supercopa of Spain (2-2 at the Santiago Bernabeu and 3-2 at the Camp Nou). No one can escape it not that Madrid is looking forward to Barcelona by repeated punishment to those before it, but nobody, neither can escape the Catalan team will perform at the target nest battle. To work. To play football and be true to their philosophy of play, which is none other than go in search of victory. The mission, therefore, more complicated enough, or more complicated than it is willing to present the FC Barcelona, ​​not far from impossible. It’s possible. And very possible. There are in the memory of all the fans the 2-6 and 0-2 of the League 2008-2009 and 2009-2010 and the 2010-2011 Champions League 0-2. And in the memory of the team, whose backbone is still the same.

Compelling reasons

In a match of this magnitude, so that’s at stake, anything is possible. True that Madrid will go to two hundred percent, they will try to stop Barca’s streak on home soil and at the same time, to return the little hand that was at the Camp Nou on November 29, 2010 in the league, but neither is also true that Barca will go defeated. Quite the contrary. Catalan team is half the league. He knows that winning 3-point cut the leader and knows that making, can leave you touched and, once again, frustrated at not being able to bend. And at the same time, winning is priceless inject a dose of the imminent moral World Clubs. The team would travel to Japan at cruising speed and a strong bomb-proof soul.

The truth is coming face to face exciting. One of those duels in which a well prepared candidate challenges the champion to argue the throne. A match can be key to the future of the League. The Barça fans can rest easy because, whatever happens on Saturday in the field of Real Madrid, Barca played. Fight. And enjoy (not ‘sausages’) victory. And if you tap defeat, will rise

THE OTHER ’9 ‘ALSO SCORE GOALS IN PAIRS

The Arenys is knowing his new position of striker and went to see goal after five matches

The depth that brings Cesc Fabregas to Barca’s game is one of the innovations incorporated by Pep Guardiola in the summer to gain power producer.

This variant had borne fruit at the start of season with Arenys false no longer acting as center forward, but in many cases embedded as a ‘born again Do among the plants. Cesc had played with the Arsenal midfielder, but has never been a major player in the reference point of attack.

Therefore, despite starting as a shot, I needed a process of adaptation and in the last five games had not seen goal. Yesterday, however, appeared again to get back on track to meet the first two goals of the meeting.

Fàbregas became these two goals in the second top scorer this season, tied with David Villa. Leo Messi is above and behind you all are tied with nine goals on what the `4` 7 Is the club. Seven of the nine goals from Cesc are in the league, becoming the most capped midfielder has scored in the Spanish League. Juanlu, who did not play with the Levant, was six and yesterday was beaten by Barcelona.

The doublet has a special value for Fabregas, since no doubly scoring from the December 26, 2009 in a match against Aston Villa Arsenal. The 2009-10 season was just the most successful player at the scorer. Low forced to move Arsène Wenger and Cesc said position dramatically.

He finished the season with 20 goals, 15 of them in the demanding Premier League. The midfielder is returning to exhibit its clarity to hurt opposing defenses as he did during his time in the Premier League, but was surprised in some aspects such as headers.

Cesc has already sent three header at the back of the net. The first was at the Viktoria and the second in San Mamés. This therefore made on November 6, was the last before that was unable to score any goal against L ^ Hospitalet, Zaragoza, Milan, Lightning and, being in the stands with discomfort in Getafe.

This little mishap in the thigh of the left leg prevented him from being a starter in the last two games and jumped yesterday for the ninth time in the league in the starting lineup. Cesc is feeling well and recovering at the perfection of the little annoyances that Arsenal had led to so much trouble last season. Indeed, the player already has the same nine goals he got during the last year for the club `GUNN.

At the end of the day, became a classic scene and transferred the pressure Cesc whites saying that “Madrid is the team that is now in better shape the world.” The player appealed to the boat to be true to form at the Bernabeu and stressed that “we must do our best football if we win.”

The game against Levante, the player said “was very important to score early because they were very close behind” and defended the alignment of Busquets, despite being apperceived sanction four yellow cards: “The league games are not only which will play at the Bernabeu. Busquets has proven to be a very smart player and very important to us. “

THE HURRICANE ENGULFING THE LEVANT BEFORE BARCA CLASSIC

Five goals and move on. The Levante suffered the ravages of a hurricane named Barca, who prepared the Madrid derby against the n-th ‘little hand’ of the season

When Barca played a test at home before the revelations of the first round, an uprising that weeks ago was cheered by the fans after knocking out FC Barcelona Real Madrid at the Ciutat de Valencia. Granota team has learned to live in uptown, to the delight of his fans and with only seven goals conceded in seven league visits, arrived at the Camp Nou with a lot to gain and little to lose.

That constraint is always dangerous for a boat that would provide six points in two games this week at the Camp Nou. He’s duties to the Lightning and also against Levante. This time, the fast track. When the address pointed to the minute 4, Cesc had already screaming for joy to the nearly 80,000 spectators were rewarded with another win.

SERGIO HOLDERS

Guardiola opened the game without reservation, defying those who thought that Sergio Busquets set aside for that of the dangerous four yellow.The Badia, owner. Depending on how you put the game, this decision was to play with fire, but more should be burned Villa. The Spaniard was one of the booths by the Santpedor and did not play a single minute.

Three defense with Puyol, Mascherano and Abidal. Enough, because the lift only went before Valdes. And if presented, solved with the current creditworthiness of the League Zamora. Because if Barca are unbeaten in the Nou Camp is not just because rivals believe few occasions. Sometimes they are so clear as two that had the Levant. And there was Victor.

The first time was a monologue of those that are repeated in the Camp Nou in this league. Barca, overwhelming and the Levant, shrinking. After the goal by Cesc, an example of direct football, Guardiola all relaxed. For games like this become a competitive basis to outstanding students like Isaac Reus Basin, sassy as ever.

Cuenca has good teachers to the side, as the great Messi, challenging anyone who dares to challenge him. Sure you took note of an action on 17 minutes in which Leo was leaving behind up to three opponents and finally could not side with Javi Venta.

CESC, AGAIN

The only way to stop the wind was hard. The ‘errands’ of sale and of Ballesteros-how strange-forced Teixeira older brother to take the first yellow. It was shortly before that, after a brilliant free-kick from Xavi, Cesc Fabregas celebrate his new hairstyle topped another ball away from Munúa. Two goals from ‘ex’ of Arsenal and rising.

33 minutes and the game was more than solved. The only concern came after a bump between Puyol and Koné which ended with the captain asking for the change. Alves replaced him with caution and the Brazilian was on the pitch and the third night in a fast game show with three key points: a pass from Messi, Iniesta and assistance from the definition of Cuenca.

With the 3-0, got the best chance for the hitherto harmless Levante. Valdo attended Koné and he had two opportunities to Victor Valdes. Neither the one nor the other. No one drill his goal at the Camp Nou.

ALEXIS APPEARS

After the break, Guardiola decided to sit down Sergio Busquets. The youth avoided the fifth yellow, but just in case, Keita went to prop up the team. And the party’s history was written in the same way.Attacks and more attacks, with the appearance of the Chilean star Alexis, who was the first in a good service that came before Iniesta Munúa.

The ‘boy wonder’ tested-and suspended-the assistant referee side of the band when it appreciated his non-existent offside pass from Cesc. Del Horno also intended to test and Gavà Valdés said, with one of his great saves, that there was wrong.

And the roll continued ramming the granota. It was at the moment Messi managed to extend his goal tally to 17. Alves gave him a ball that went gold Rosario. Five minutes later, Leo went to assistant scorer and an assist Alexis decisive. Yet another ‘little hand’ was clinched.

‘MAYOR TEIXEIRA’ AVOID THE SIXTH

The Levant and for many minutes flying the white flag. There were many forward-thirty, and was approaching a major landslide. Guardiola, meanwhile, was break-deserved applause and respectable part of Cesc Fabregas, the benefit of Peter. The canary appeared in the odd occasion, but without success.

The minutes passed and the door was all he saw Iniesta. It was almost the end and Fuentealbilla, offside, was trying to clear a ball Juanfran. The referee Jose Antonio Teixeira Vitienes, of the famous ‘chest-hand’ Higuain in Valencia, thought it was offside and Don Andres was left unmarked, while the public arbiter Cantabrian dedicated to one of the great puffs of night. An action that will cause debate, but ultimately it is the last story of a new bathroom to a rival FC Barcelona at Camp Nou.

Finally, three points. Mission accomplished before facing the expected classic against Real Madrid in the lead aupado weeks ago and succumbed to the same Levante on Saturday returned to Valencia with five goals in the trunk and no options for a hurricane blaugrana makes it look easy difficult.
