Barça has achieved 3 consecutive victories thanks to a better performance than Messi of the “new Suárez”.
Barcelona was confident of entering the eighth round of the Champions League, but still played correctly despite not throwing the strongest team. They easily beat Ferencvaros in Hungary with a 3-0 win, Antoine Griezmann opened the scoring and Martin Braithwaite and Ousmane Dembele added 2 more goals for Barça to set the score in less than half an hour.

It’s worth noting that Barca’s performance is improving regardless of whether or not Lionel Messi is on the squad. If Messi plays or the game is bad, there is another player who is playing consistently well: Martin Braithwaite.
After 3 main shots from Braithwaite, Barça won all 3, each match scoring no less than 3 goals and conceding no goals. Braithwaite’s individuals in those three games scored all, including a double against Dynamo Kiev, as well as 1 assists. He also won 2 penalties against Barça.
The Danish striker was used by manager Ronald Koeman after Barça lost 1-0 to Atlético de Madrid and, surprisingly, he is still a missing piece for Barça to play better, at least on the offensive front. Braithwaite is a true striker, running and pressing well, which brings Griezmann back to the forward position backstage, Braithwaite from the start also makes Griezmann play better.
Barça played very convincingly in the last three games that Braithwaite started
Barça when Suarez was still calm in the game even though the Uruguayan forward was old and couldn’t run much anymore, but for more than two months they were extremely struggling after leaving Suarez at Atlético de Madrid. They don’t have a true striker to run into space behind defense, instead a Griezmann plays back but is forced to kick or push the wing. Even Messi needs a plug-and-play striker, or else he will have to work in tight spaces.
Braithwaite, of course, has a good kick in Barca’s most cherished matches, but those matches must also be won and the fact that Barca did not win is the reason they lost La Liga last season. Barça lost to Osasuna at home more than 4 months ago and could not beat Osasuna in the first leg of La Liga season 2019/20.
Braithwaite will probably be one of the strange transfers that Barça has made in recent years, players bought in a confusing environment but who end up playing well for a team like Paulinho or Arturo Vidal. So far Barça can find a replacement for Suárez, but at least it’s better late than not.
