The Copa del Rey is a unique competition. Strategically located in the Ecuador of the season, it has a special magic that makes it able to change the dynamics of a team or decorate a bad campaign. This happened, for example, with Barça in 2018. With the Barca team, campaigning with great sorrow and little glory on the Spanish and European clues, the club opted for a change of coach. Sito Alonso left the bench and Svetislav Pesic went to the rescue. Nine days later he conquered the cup against all prognosis, coincidentally in the Gran Canaria Arena. An example that, with a small mouth, grabbed this year in the entity to straighten the course a little but this time the fat will fall into another place.
Barça is still undressing. A few days it comes out expensive and other cross, but regularity is not in the menu and that, in decisive times, is impossible to manage. The defeat against Tenerife in the quarterfinals has caused the Peñarroya team to touch background. Continues to make the same mistakes as at the beginning of the season and the injuries have reduced their potential. Nothing goes well and no solutions are glimpsed. “I have many doubts that a coach change could better, I don’t think it’s the solution as the team is now,” says Argentine Juan Domingo Lizard De la Cruz (71), twelve seasons Barca player and legend of the Palau. “Everyone must take a step forward to get out of this situation,” he adds.
I know it is not easy but now it is time to endure and that everyone takes a step forward “
Undoubtedly, the bad results have placed Joan Peñarroya in El Leivadero. It is what always happens. But those who know about this do not see it as a good way out for Barça, “Who are you going to sign now if there is no one free to change the dynamics of the team?” Asks the Italian Gianluca Basile (50), One of the great foreign idols of the Palau and Euroleague champion in 2010. “Change to the coach would do more harm than anything else. In addition, the club has no money to sign important players, who can contribute and change some things, ”he adds.
There are good players but they lack Barca heart, really love the club “
In the same line, the remembered Roger Esteller (52), Barca Canterano and player of the first two -stage team is expressed. “I don’t think Peñarroya is the problem, it’s deeper, it’s structural. If they are now going to solve anything, nor was it solved when they threw Grimau, ”recalls the Sants tiger.

If someone has been in the position of Peñarroya is Joan Montes (64), former coach of the lower categories of Barça and sitting on the bench of the first team in two different times .. “Changing the coach can work as a revulsive for three or four games but that’s it. The one who is suffering, the one who does not sleep, is Joan (Peñarroya) and is the one who best knows the dynamics in which he is and what players can he answer or not, ”he points out.
I don’t think changing the coach is the solution as the team is “
In addition to a very bad dynamic, with many curves ahead on its way, Barça needs solutions. But there are no magical formulas. “Barça has a lot of talent but when there is no success things get complicated. He lacks cement, defensive specialists or players who know how to contribute playing only 10 minutes, ”says Esteller. “When you lose so many games, and at home, there may be some mental fatigue. I know it’s not easy, but now it’s time to endure and be together. Everyone has to take a step forward, ”says Basile, on the same line as of the Cross:“ There are players who are not giving the level. You have to work and suffer, get everyone to contribute. ”
Montes points one that considers key to understanding the negative context of this Barça: “Missing Barca heart. There are good players who come from outside to win the bread but we need players who feel it, to love the club and spend many years here even if they come from outside. I remember Dueñas, de la Fuente, Nacho Rodríguez … they fought for Barça. ”
Barça has a lot of talent but it lacks cement, defensive specialists “
It is clear that the optimism in the Barca environment does not reign and that Peñarroya and theirs have a mission of the most complex to escape the well. Expectant, the Palau expects you to get it.
