Civilianization seems to be the theme of some of this year's big teams? The reason is that they have no funds, of course, some teams are because they have not played well recently, and their ability to attract players is not enough, but there is also a difference in civilianization, in fact, the recent Arsenal and Barcelona seem to be the representative of the civilianization of players, so whose lineup has no stars?
Arsenal's squad looks good, but the lack of stars can be seen, but one thing is certain, Arsenal are not going to attract stars right now unless they can get into the Champions League
In fact, for Arsenal, it is a real problem, recently can not enter the Champions League, even the Europa League almost did not enter, which led to many stars do not want to come, although the Premier League is indeed a good league, but whether to play the Champions League is very critical, playing the Champions League means to get more income, that is, this is why Arsenal offseason rumors a lot of players, but ultimately did not come, because it is not sure whether Arsenal can play the Champions League. Of course, there are no stars in the team now, there are many young people, but they are not stars, and this is the problem now. For Arsenal, who is the biggest player in the current squad? There should be no real big players. Thomas is the biggest player on the team right now? It could also be Lacazette, but there really isn't a core, and that's the problem, so Arsenal are civilian now, but the reason for the civilianization is because there is no Champions League, but Barca is different.
This season is passive civilian, which is very interesting
Barca this season is passive civilian, because the team salary space is not enough, can only let some players leave, after Messi left, this team did not find the real core, this is the key, but this is to clean up the space, Aubameyang and Traore joined that is what happened, are not stars, this team is now veterans also do not have stars, so young people who can grow up is the key, but at least for now, many young people still have not grown, So this season it looks like Barça is civilian, but next season is not necessarily, next season Barca have salary space.
Because next season Barca's salary cap is about 300 million euros, this season is less than 100 million euros, so next season Barça has enough salary to sign new players, this is the key, then next season the team will definitely have stars to join, and should not only have one star to join, this is the point, Barça also hope to participate in next season's Champions League, of course, Barça is still attractive to players, after all, in La Liga, in addition to Real Madrid is Barca's most attractive, And the attraction of these two teams is obviously much stronger than the rest of the teams, so Barca will not be civilian, this season can only be said that for many reasons, need to be civilian, this is the gap, but the two teams should now need to compete for four, to see who can finally enter the Champions League, this is also a point of attention. But Arsenal do feel a little helpless.
