After Messi was forced to leave Barca, Barça fell into an unprecedented crisis, not even such a difficult moment in the entire history of the team, but as one of the key figures in Barca's success in this century, Laporta's ability to work is indeed strong. In the just-concluded winter window, Barca have been moving continuously, and although there have been no big transfers, the team has gained a whole new front line, and the effect is quite good. According to statistics, Aubameyang, Traore and Ferrantore, the new trident, have scored 6 goals and 6 assists so far, and Barca have not lost in the whole month of February.
The most worth mentioning is that Barca's cost of bringing in these players is quite small, although Ferrantore's transfer fee is quite large, but most of it is installments, Barca do not have to pay anything now, Traore is on loan, and Aubameyang is visa-free. After signing this front line, Barca's offensive ability has been very directly improved, and Xavi's tactical thinking has been better reflected. In the just-concluded match against Napoli, Barca's counter-attack was very fluid, and Aubameyang and Traore were the arrows of Barca's counter-attack.
Today's Barca team is playing very much like a Premier League team, and their most efficient weapon today is the counterattack from the back, from the beginning of Araujo and even Ter Stegen to launch attacks. Aubameyang and Traore, two players who have recently been unlucky in the Premier League, seem to have opened up after coming to La Liga, perfectly proving their ability, Ferrantores, although not too good, but also has his own highlight moments, and given his age, Barca can expect more. This new forward line coupled with Barca's own young midfielder, barca now seems to be worth looking forward to.
Judging from what Barca have shown since the winter window, this Barca team is still quite competitive in La Liga, although it may be much worse than real Madrid next door, but their squad is young enough. Of all the Labels of La Porta, the emphasis on youth training is one of the most important, and the young players of La Masia's generation are also worth looking forward to, presumably these young players can become barca's new mainstay with the flow of time. And Barca are, after all, one of the best teams in the world, their finances can't be so bad forever, they still have an appeal to the top players, although it is too early to say that they are back to the top, but at least give the fans hope.
