Sergi Roberto32 years old, and youth player of FC Barcelonaceased to be part of his life team on June 30. The contract ended and was not renewed. In reality the club wanted to continue with him but the difficulties of ‘fair play’ did not ensure that he could be registered and the man from Reus did not want to wait and said goodbye to Barça.
After receiving various offers from different leagues, he ended up choosing for Like 1907, coached by Cesc Fàbregasan old acquaintance of the culé fans and with him in the locker room. An exclusive club in the world that in 5 years went from bankruptcy in the fourth division to being a Serie A team with a stadium by Lake Como.
The hope of Sergi Roberto
In pure sports, the team where the players like Pepe Reina, Alberto Moreno or Nico Paz They have 12 points in fifteen games and are on the brink of the relegation places.
A situation that could have been very different had Sergi Roberto not been injured on 10/25 against Torino. Since then the team has not raised its head. The data is very clear. With the player from Reus on the field the team added 9 points, without him only 3. They played in eight games and missed seven so the numbers don’t lie.
More revealing is the data depending on whether he plays as a starter or not. He started six times, but one of them had to leave the field before half-time due to injury. With him on the field from the opening whistle they won 8 points and lost just once, at the home of Antonio Conte’s Naples. They even managed to beat Atalanta in what was the only defeat for Gasperini’s side in the domestic championship at home.
The Catalan midfielder is the perfect complement to Cesc’s plans. He came to the place as in his best days at the farmhouse. He cuts the lines by passing or driving and he gives the team the necessary strength at all times to know how to manage the different scenarios that a match will present.
Furthermore, next to him on the playing field, the Argentine Nico Paz, who grew up in Real Madrid, shows more of all his virtues.
