Barcelona s new golden partner is born, Pedri joins Cassado, a perfect match for offense and defense

When Frankie DeJong fell down due to injury, the hearts of countless Barcelona fans were hanging. The huge gap in the midfield casts a shadow on the team's prospects. But for coach Flick, there are opportunities in the crisis. The absence of De Jong will allow another Lamacia star Mark Cassado to start with the team's absolute core Pedri. However, this seemingly temporary partner has an amazing historical record and can be regarded as Barcelona's hidden victory code.

Nature-made combined data will not lie. From the youth team to the first team, Pedri and Cassado have worked together on the court for 36 games. In these 36 games, Barcelona achieved an impressive record of 27 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses, with an astonishing victory rate of 75%! This is no longer just a coincidence, but a nearly instinctive chemical reaction deeply embedded in Lamacia's genes. This data also reveals to Frick a fact: when these two players are on the court at the same time, Barcelona's winning odds will increase greatly. Pedri is the metronome and offensive brain of the team's midfield. His role is the key to determining the direction of Barcelona's game. And Casardo's existence perfectly completes everything that Pedri needs.

1+1>2 Why is the winning rate of this pair so high? The answer lies in their perfect attributes that complement each other functions, achieving the true 1+1>2 effect.

Pedri: With Casador behind him, Pedri's talent will be completely liberated. He no longer needs to retreat too much and spend a lot of energy on defense and fighting. He can appear in the third zone of the offensive with more peace of mind, focusing on sending out those deadly straight passes that tear the defense, and focusing on finding tiny gaps in the opponent's defense. Casardo's existence transformed him from an all-round midfielder to the most threatening, pure offensive organizer.

Casado: Compared to De Jong, who also likes forward and plays more freely, Casado is a purer, more disciplined, and more defensive midfielder. His mission is very clear: to become the most reliable barrier behind Pedri, and to destroy the opponent's attack as soon as possible with accurate predictions and running without hesitation. He is responsible for destroying and interception, and then handing the ball over to the artist in front of him to create. This clear division of labor has enabled Barcelona's midfield to achieve the ideal offensive and defensive balance.

Frick's vision

Frick has long seen through Casardo's unique value. During the summer window, faced rumours of transfers of 30 million euros. The German made it clear that he did not want Casardo to leave. This is not only for the depth of the lineup, but also a tactical reserve. Frick's persistence proved to be correct. A team that aims to win the Triple Crown must have players with different characteristics to deal with different game situations.

In addition to these two, another talented midfielder, Mark Bernard, is about to return from injury. Barcelona's midfielder will usher in the quad-core era of Pedri + De Jong + Cassado + Bernard. These four top midfielders with different styles will provide Flick with the richest tactical combination, and it is also the strongest capital for Barcelona to challenge the top of Europe.
