Barcelona face one of the most difficult matches in the Spanish Football League, tomorrow, Sunday, when it is a guest of fifth-placed Villarreal, and if the team fails to win, the season may become disastrous.
And if Real Madrid beat Athletic Bilbao before the Barcelona match, Barcelona will enter their match with Villarreal, knowing that the loss will take him seven points behind with four matches remaining.
Barcelona is entering the match and the new star is upset by sitting back up, and their greatest player is the subject of worrying speculation, and their coach is in the limelight as his future with the team hovers doubts about him.
Gerard Pique confirmed this week that they would fight to the end of the season because it is part of the team's DNA, but this only resulted in a 2/2 draw with Atletico Madrid last Tuesday and since then problems have started to increase.
Antoine Griezmann, the team's biggest deal last summer, participated in the match in the 90th minute as an alternative to the Atletico match.
"Is there a problem with Griezmann?" Barcelona coach Kiki Sittin was asked last Tuesday.
"It seems to me that he is doing well. But they cannot play all of them. Decisions must be made," said Sittin.
Regarding the player's late participation in the match, Sittin said: "I know it is illogical to push him at this time."
He added: "I was supposed to push him early, but I saw that we were playing well, and that you should always pay Blunel Messi and Luis Suarez."
Griezmann feels he has not got the position he deserves after the club paid 120 million euros ($ 135 million) last summer.
In response to what Sittin said he would talk to the player, Griezmann's father came out angry on social media.
The images circulated in the media showed that Barcelona players were not interested in Sittin's instructions during the rest period during the matches, and Messi showed himself as he was moving away from Sittin's assistant Sarabia while he was talking to him.
