New Era: Koeman’s Barca revolution begins

The Ronald Koeman era kicks off tomorrow night as Barcelona host Villarreal amid a tumultuous time at Camp Nou. Following the infamous Champions League exit at the hands of Bayern Munich with an embarrassing 8-2 loss, the club sacked Quique Setien and battled to keep its talismanic captain, Argentine Lionel Messi. They will begin their 2020/21 La Liga campaign against Villarreal in what could be a difficult fixture on paper for the new manager for obvious reasons .

Villarreal have started well and are just two points off of the top two clubs in La Liga after Matchday 2. Based on the early season table, it is possible that La Liga could finish in a very unusual style. Villarreal conceded a 50th -minute goal but came back with two strikes in the final 27 minutes of the game as Gerard Moreno and Paco Alcacer both found the back of the net.

The Blaugrana won 2-1 at Camp Nou with all three goals coming in the first half. Antoine Griezmann and the recently departed Arthur scored in the opening 15 minutes. Villarreal scored through Santi Cazorla in the 44th minute but that was as close as they got. Koeman has so far proved a particularly flexible manager; his approach is determined by the qualities of the players at his disposal.
