One of the great novelties of Atlético de Madrid this Sunday at San Sebastian is the presence of Pablo Barrios in the beginning eleven of Simeon. As long as the tests conducted by the Argentine coach on Friday and Saturday have been completed. In this way the youth squad will leave from not calling against Benfica to be the direct owner.
Something that may come as a surprise as he will not have a break-in time after more than a month away from the playing field. The last time he played was on August 31 against Athletic. That day, he played 90 minutes, after leaving with the U-21 team and returning for less than a minute because what appeared to be a muscle overload turned into a muscle tear. It is very good that they saw Atlético to enter directly into the starting eleven, let’s remember that this season they are taking care of the special physique of footballers to avoid the plagues of injuries like in previous seasons.
The truth is that Atlético de Madrid he is needed. In the last games, the Cholo must be used koke there is a dropper because the captain is very touched. The only one at this time that has the ability to replace it with guarantees is the Moratalaz. In recent games he has tried to put Llorente, De Paul or even Javi Serranobut the only ones that reached Vallecano’s level were Neighborhoods. And he knows that Cholo.
We should not forget that at the moment the main deficit of the squad Atlético de Madrid It is at the core. They only have six players who can play as pivots. The problem is one Lemar who hasn’t played a year and the other is Marcos Llorente who usually plays as a right winger. So the Argentine has De Paul, Coke, Gallagher and Neighborhoods who was injured last month. That’s why he hasn’t been able to rotate as much as he would like in the middle of the field.
This season, the Cholo made headlines Neighborhoods when he arrived from the Olympic Games. He is new Villarreal He’s played from the beginning, and that’s it Pablo He came one march further than the rest of his companions. In the first part of the campaign he was fundamental, and in the second he was sorely missed. Because of this, after a month in the infirmary, he went straight to eleven. Something that may come as a surprise as he has never had that much importance in the squad, but he is only 21 years old.
