Missing in action

Although camouflaged with a win, Barcelona had another forgettable encounter away from home against none other than Leganés, a team usually in the relegation zone.

Ernesto Valverde's team, have, in general, been hugely disappointing in their away games, and fingers are starting to point towards Griezmann, who was widely expected to provide goals and assists as Luis Suarez' eventual replacement. 

The Frenchman, a fresh summer signing, was once again conspicuously absent and went unnoticed in the match against Leganés.

His contribution in Butarque was minimal, and concern over his difficulties to adapt are growing by the minute. 

Although he is said to believe in himself, the former Atletico player is barely giving hints of the player he is known to be and was for so long in his former team. 

The team is not offering its best version and cracks are starting to appear: although Messi usually provides goals, and Suarez has had his usual stunning performances here and there, Griezmann is missing in action.

Both Valverde and the Frenchman will have to find solutions in order to turn things around and fix the problem before accusations start to grow in the Camp Nou.
