An Su Fati is a player who is good at speed, but he has no excellent physical antagonism. However, as a player in the Spanish youth training, the teenager Fati has a very good level in both technology and passing. As a talented player, Fati was expected to be promoted to the first team. Fati responded to people's expectations with his excellent performance, and his performance in the winger position was even better than that of Gleizman who joined the team this summer. Even whether Dembele can return to the position of the main left winger after injury is a question, and all this is obtained by Fati's own efforts.
At the age of seventeen, he can be promoted to the first team and serve as the starter of many games, which shows that Fati's talent and ability are different from ordinary people. However, at a young age, he was promoted to the first team, and Fati's playing time could not be guaranteed. However, it is difficult for Fati to show himself freely in the limited playing time, which is one of the biggest problems that Ansu Fati is facing now.
As a winger born in Spanish youth training, Fati's characteristics are very distinct. Fast speed, good footwork and good combination of passing and cutting are all advantages that Fati has. Players with such tactical characteristics have an absolute advantage in Barcelona's tactical system. If this advantage can be placed on Coutinho, then Barcelona will not need Fati to come to the first team. However, this tactical advantage is not available to Coutinho. Although the foot technique is good, the cutting and matching are also in place. But Coutinho, who lacks absolute speed advantage, can't meet the needs of Barcelona's left wing, while An Su Fati's tactical characteristics perfectly meet the tactical needs of Barcelona's left wing.
The two wings of Barcelona are the most important attack route of Barcelona since Guardiola's time. Therefore, since Neymar left, Barcelona has not been able to find a suitable successor on the left. Coutinho, as a midfielder, has proved that he can't bring depth on the wing, and Dembele, who joined at a high price, has become a glass man of Barcelona. Gleizman, who joined this season, can't adapt to Barcelona's left attack. So Fati's winger is very valuable, which is why Fati can stand in the first team.
It is true that Fati's talent is far less than that of Neymar and Dembele, who have frequent injuries, and his experience is less than that of teammates Coutinho and Gleizman. However, as a winger from La Masia, Fati can still fit Barcelona's existing passing and ball control tactics well, which is Fati's advantage. However, as a teenager, Fati still needs more experience. It can be seen from several games in which Fati played that Fati's excellent personal ability made him get rid of it easily in one-to-one or even one-to-many situations. But as a winger, Fati lacked many chances in the final cross or in front of the goal. In addition to the ability to break the break point, the winger is more important to turn the opportunity into a goal, which is well reflected in Messi, the right winger, and this is what Fati needs to strengthen.
In the match between Barcelona and Real Sociedad, teenager Fati came on as a substitute for Gleizman in the final stage of the game. Fati performed better on the wing than teammate Gleizman after his debut. In this game, Gleizman, who started on the right, was outside the offensive system of Barcelona's frontcourt. After Fati appeared, Barcelona responded effectively to the left and right attacks.
However, in Fati's attack, lack of experience made Fati fail to make the best treatment. After Fati accelerated on the flank, Messi successfully passed the direct plug and sent the ball to Fati. After receiving the ball, Fati successfully evaded the players who defended him and had a very good chance to shoot. Alba was offside. Fati should not pass the ball to Alba below, but should choose to hit the door himself. However, the inexperienced Fati passed the ball to Alba, who followed up the shot and scored the ball, but was ruled invalid because of offside.
This is the influence of inexperience on Fati. Therefore, although he has been promoted to the first team, Fati, as a teenager, still needs more experience to improve himself, so that he can get a stable starting opportunity in Barcelona's talented first team.
Although valverde promoted Fati to the first team, Fati's ups and downs have been criticized, but as a young teenager, Fati still needs more competition experience to stabilize his state. However, after half a season's experience, the performance of teenager Fati is obviously more stable after the winter break. In such a stable and excellent performance, Setien saw Fati's potential to solve the Barcelona winger problem, so Fati stood in the starting position, which is Barcelona's affirmation of the young Fati's ability.
Fati's outstanding performance did not live up to the trust of the coach and teammates. In the position of winger, Fati has repeatedly brought depth to the team with his excellent speed. At the same time, he also used his excellent passing and cutting ability to create goals for his teammates in the middle of the team. Such a strong and stable breakthrough is what Barcelona saw again after Neymar left. Although Dembele is very talented in the position of the wing, he relies too much on his own personal ability to seek a breakthrough, which is the uniqueness of Fati's tactical thought.
Since Setien took office, Barcelona once again took passing control as the main tactical thinking of the team. Under this tactical thinking, Barcelona needs more wingers who can play in a small range. Just like Guardiola's Manchester City, Sterling and Mahrez are not only excellent breakthrough players on the wing, but also the key to Guardiola's infiltration tactics on the wing. Fati also has such tactical requirements. So in Barcelona's first team, although Dembele's personal ability and talent are stronger than Fati's, Fati is obviously a more suitable candidate for Barcelona's tactics, which is Fati's own advantage.
In addition to being able to cooperate with full-backs, Fati's running position is also excellent, which is Fati's second advantage. There are many excellent players in Barcelona's front line, and Gleizman has become a top player with his excellent running position. However, although he has excellent running position, Gleizman does not have excellent speed, which makes Gleizman's attack must be covered by a center. Fati's running position can't be compared with Gleizman's, but under the same flexible running position, Fati can also have absolute speed support, which enables Fati to play an attack similar to Neymar's. But as a teenager, Fati doesn't have the ability of stable output like Sancho and Mbappé, which may be the only conflict between him and Barcelona's first team.
This is an offensive tactic that Neymar often used in Barcelona. Under such tactics, Barcelona often takes the ball in the middle to attract the attention of defenders. When teammates are heavily defended by opponents in the middle, Neymar tends to accelerate in the ribs. At this point, the midfielder timely passes the ball to Neymar, who will use his personal ability to score the ball.
In the match with levante, Fati staged such offensive tactics. This tactic shows that Fati is excellent in rib coordination and running position. In this attack, Messi dribbled in the middle to attract the attention of the opponent's defense. At this time, facing the unguarded ribs, Fati chose to speed up, and Messi passed the ball to Fati in time. Facing the late double-team of the three defenders, Fati used his excellent personal ability to score the ball. Therefore, Fati's tactical awareness and running ability are excellent, which is also Fati's own advantage and the place where it fits with Barcelona's tactics.
He made his debut at the age of 17 and scored twice in Barcelona. Fati was even better than Messi. Fatima became famous at a young age by playing well on the left in Barcelona, but this situation is not conducive to Fatima's growth. However, many years ago, under the leadership of Ronaldinho, Messi overcame many difficulties and walked towards his superstar step by step.
For Fati, under the leadership of Messi, the first thing Fati should do is to calm his mind and not be overwhelmed by the pressure of growth. At the same time of physical and mental maturity, Fati has to work hard to improve herself. While deepening our own advantages, we should further make up for our own shortcomings through training. In this way, Fati can, like Messi many years ago, walk out of his own football road in the process of constantly improving his experience and competitive level.
So Fati's problems in attack need him to improve constantly. And Ephraim's ability should improve quickly at this level. Therefore, the calm mind is growing steadily, which is the label that Fati and young players like him should have.
Although Fati is regarded as the future of Barcelona by the outside world, at the same time, many fans think that he is Messi's successor. However, if Suarez and Dembele hadn't both been reimbursed for their injuries, Fati might not get many playing opportunities and it would be difficult to get a position in the first team. Therefore, for Fati, who is not yet 18 years old, whether to stay in Barcelona or rent out for training has a great influence on his future career. As fans, we are very much looking forward to Fati's success in Barcelona.
