About 'about arsenal transfer news'|Arsenal: Latest Updates on Transfer Tidbits and Injury News








               It               seems               that               there               is               no               stopping               FC               Barcelona.

Real               Madrid               has               already               fallen               to               Barça               this               year               and               it               seems               that               the               only               team               that               can               stop               the               Blaugrana               is               themselves,               right?

Wrong!

Culés               need               to               stop               dreaming               about               lifting               the               Champions               League               trophy               in               May               (although               it               does               run               through               my               mind               at               times)               and               consider               the               thing               that               will               ruin               those               thoughts               of               UCL               &               Liga               glory:               our               defense               is               weak               and               will               be               our               downfall               soon.
               Now               I'm               sure               most               Barça               fans               will               say               that               there's               no               need               to               worry               because               we               dominate               the               midfield.

The               front               3               and               especially               the               midfield               are               so               great               that               it               covers               up               the               weakness               that               is               our               defense.

I               don't               understand               why               people               think               that               Barça               doesn't               need               to               worry               about               those               4               (or               3               nowadays)               defenders               in               the               back.

Carles               Puyol               is               still               a               top               defender               and               the               heart               of               Barcelona.

But               he's               getting               up               there               in               age               and               injuries               are               beginning               to               get               keep               him               on               the               bench.

Éric               Abial               seems               likely               not               to               re-sign               and               a               recent               injury               to               Gerard               Piqué               has               made               the               defense               thin.

Andreu               Fontàs               is               still               not               ready               to               be               a               regular               starter               and               Javier               Mascherano               struggles               at               times               playing               an               unfamiliar               position               to               him.

So               what               is               the               solution?

It's               simple:               sign               a               top               true               defender               soon.
               If               we               learned               anything               from               the               2009-10               Champions               League               run,               we               learned               that               Barcelona               can               struggle               once               in               a               hole               score-wise.

Inter               Milan's               3               -               1               lead               after               the               first               leg               of               the               semifinals               showed               us               that               the               defense               can't               step               up               when               the               offense               struggles.

The               offense,               as               great               as               it               is,               can               &               will               struggle               and               it's               up               to               the               defense               to               step               up.

But               as               we've               seen,               they               usually               can't;               they               can't               even               hold               the               fort               down               let               alone               step               up.

Too               many               undeserved               ties               in               Liga               play               these               past               years.
               Some               of               the               names               that               have               been               mentioned               for               a               possible               move               to               the               Camp               Nou               include               Thiago               Silva,               David               Luiz,               Gareth               Bale,               and               recently               Ashley               Cole.

I               don't               know               who               would               be               the               best               fit,               but               any               one               of               those               would               easily               improve               the               back               four.

For               those               who               may               say               money               will               be               one               of               the               determiners               of               who               Barcelona               should               get,               you               are               wrong.

When               has               money               truly               been               an               issue               for               Barcelona               to               get               who               they               want?

The               Cesc               Fàbregas               saga,               you               say?

No.

That               was               more               Barcelona               waiting               to               get               their               man               at               the               right               time:               when               Arsenal               needed               to               get               rid               of               him.
               While               the               additions               of               Fàbregas               and               Alexis               Sánchez               have               been               great,               the               fact               that               Pep               Guardiola               nor               Sandro               Rosell               did               not               try               and               sign               a               top               defender               this               offseason               is               worrisome.

Has               the               Dmytro               Chygrynskiy               experience               scarred               Barça?

I               hope               not.

Barcelona               needs               to               invest               in               a               true               defender.

No               more               Maxwell's               or               Adriano's;               no               more               midfielder/forward               defenders.

The               January               transfer               window               is               coming.

As               a               Culé               and               as               one               of               those               people               who               every               year               dreams               of               seeing               Puyol               or               Xavi               hoist               that               CL               trophy,               I               like               to               think               Barcelona               will               not               buy               into               the               smokescreen               that               their               great               midfield               creates               and               strengthen               their               back               four.

It's               so               simple,               so               why               hasn't               it               been               done               already?
