Only 1 goal in 10 games this season! As: Barcelona is worried about Olmo, he has no sense of existence on the offensive end

Hupu, October 6, According to Spanish media "As", the media talked about the situation of Barcelona midfielder Olmo.

"As" said that the Spanish international continued to fall into a downturn this season, and his away performance in Sevilla hit a new low since joining the club. However, as the team's frontcourt core, he should have assumed more critical responsibilities in the offensive three zones - as a front midfielder, he needs to connect in the midfield and frontcourt, and play a decisive role in the ending stage of the offensive.

coach Flick always maintains trust in Ormo and values ​​him as one of the most tactical insightful players in the team, especially at the area behind the front line. Players have both superb shooting skills and scoring skills, and combined with their assists and team cooperation awareness, should have become an important fulcrum of the offensive system.

But none of these traits have been shown in the new season. At the Pisjuan Stadium, Olmo even played the bleakest game since joining Barcelona: he did not appear in any threatening offensive franchise, nor did he have a personal attempt to change the situation, and his physical condition seemed out of touch with the rhythm of the game.

Frick has long noticed his lack of form, and the rotation starter between Fermin and Rafinia at the beginning of the season is a clear proof. When Ormo got the starting opportunity against Getafe, his frank statement after the game that "it still takes time to get back the rhythm of the game" further confirmed the dilemma.

Although he has accumulated 978 minutes of playing time (13 appearances and 7 starts), his contribution is only at the level of 1 goal and 2 assists, which is obviously unqualified for players who are expected. If this continues, Barcelona's offensive system will face severe tests, and the team needs it to regain its best form as soon as possible.

Barcelona's concerns about Olmo are growing: Olmo was supposed to make connections and provide creativity in Barcelona's midfield, but now, he is fading out of the game.
