Ronald Koeman's sweet headscratcher for the run-in

The coach is getting his injured players back soon

Ronald Koeman has suffered a lot of set-backs since arriving. The club did not improve the squad. He had to give up on his idea of a 4-2-3-1. He had to be the one to tell Suarez that he was not wanted. Then to speak to Messi and try to solve the issue of him wanting to leave. Bureaucracy kept the No 10 here.

Ansu Fati exploded but then suffered bad injuries, as did Gerard Pique, Araujo, Sergi Roberto, Philippe Coutinho.

Koeman had to turn to the B team and has worked well with Mingueza and Ilaix impressive in particular. Now the original players are coming back and Koeman has a headscratcher.

When Pique and Araujo are back, De Jong will have to go back to his natural midfield position, leaving a question of what to do with Pedri, who has been one of the best players in the side. Maybe he will move forward in place of Antoine Griezmann. One for Koeman to puzzle over.
