A completely different person! Barcelona s heroes form declined: only 1 goal in 10 games

Barcelona was forced to give up the top spot in La Liga after a 1-4 defeat to Sevilla in this round. In this game, Olmo performed mediocrely under Sevilla's fierce defense. After playing 10 games in the new season, Ormo only handed over a plain data of 1 goal and 2 assists, which is far from his performance last season.

Although the impression that Olmo has left is that he can organize, assist, and determine the direction of the game. He can wander between two lines and act as a fulcrum on the front line, with both shooting and vision. But this season, he has almost "evaporated from the world". Against Sevilla, he had no sense of existence: he had neither a series of cooperation nor a breakthrough to try to break through the defense line, and even when the team needed someone to stand up the most, he did not take responsibility. The broadcasting camera can't capture his breakthrough or key passes at all - because there isn't at all. At the physical level, Ormo appears very fragile and is not at his best. This kept him away from what Frick expected: Barcelona attacked the "brain". The German head coach has always been interested in Olmo's talent and even called him the "smarest player" in the team's offensive area. But now, this trust has begun to be discounted. At the beginning of the season, Frick had already suggested that Olmo was not 100% in form: he prefers to use Fermin and even tries to let Rafinia play an attacking midfielder.

Felmin was injured in the game against Getafe, which opened the door for Olmo to start consecutively. After that game, Ormo said: "I need game time to get back the rhythm", and that game was also his only game that flashed through the sparks. Although he has played continuously since then, he has not seen any significant rebound. 1 goal and 2 assists in 10 games, this data is really bleak for a player who is highly expected to change the situation in La Liga.

lost to Sevilla 1-4 away, and Barcelona has lost the lead in La Liga: after breaking the unbeaten golden body, they gave up their first place and trailed Real Madrid by 2 points with 19 points. In this context, any excuse seems pale, and players like Olmo must stand up and contribute goals and assists when the team needs it most.

Olmo has always had excellent offensive abilities in his career. In the summer window of 2024, Olmo joined Barcelona from RB Leipzig for a transfer fee of 55 million euros. He played in 39 games in his first season and contributed 12 goals and 7 assists, making him one of the heroes of Barcelona's La Liga championship. But now, Olmo's form is declining, and Flick may consider adjusting his tactics to inspire his form. If Olmo cannot quickly get his best, Barcelona will have to re-evaluate his positioning.
