Compared to Dembele, Raphinha may be a bit behind. Because Dembele has been in good form this season. But it cannot be said that Raphinha is very weak. He is quite talented. But he missed a lot of opportunities. Every chance is very important in such an important match. And so Xavi needs to fine-tune his match strategy. If the match strategy is weak, it will not be possible to defeat the United team.
Raphinha should not be looked down on by United players even if Dembele is not present. Xavi is well aware of Dembele's absence in that game, and I'm sure he has a backup plan in place by now. His main focus will be breaking through Manchester United's defense, and he will go to any length to do so in order for the team to win.
Raphinha's back up for dembele. Raphinhas has been replacing dembele in the previous matches. Xavi has been starting to test alternative formations once dembele will not able to play against manchester united. Barcelona must be focusing on the match against manchester united.
MU will not even let barcelona attacks go through defensive line. Im really aware that sabitzer may be playing against barcelona. I hope that if the full squads of MU will be playing especially casemiro which has become the main defender for united.
I hope that rashford will be making some goals against united.
