The club captain believes that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Villa-c10629 back from injury even though he wants to play and seems to be in a good shape.
Barcelona finally received the good news of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Villa being fit to play for them. However, the club captain, Carles Puyol, believes that the club should not rush with the Spanish striker’s injury.
David Villa broke his tibia in December, when Barcelona were trying to win the FIFA Club World Cup. While Barcelona won the cup, it was David Villa who limped out and had a plastered leg.
Since David Villa was missing from their starting line-up, Barcelona struggled in the Spanish La Liga and the UEFA Champions League.
Josep Guardiola had lack of options in the final third, and the Catalan manager had to play the likes of Isaac Cuenca, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristian-c9491 Tello and Alexis Sanchez, even though they weren’t performing at the highest level.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alexis-Sánchez-c4979 was lured in from the Italian side, Udinese, for a hefty amount and even though the Chilean star was expected to perform phenomenally, he was unable to live up to the expectations and soon got sidelined because of an injury.
La Blaugrana then lost the best manager in the history of the club, Josep Guardiola. The Catalan mentor decided to take a break from work and is currently unemployed. On the other hand, the Spanish giants decided to make Tito Vilanova the manager of the
club.
Now with David Villa finally making a comeback from injury, Carles Puyol believes that the club should not rush him into the first team.
Puyol just came back from a knee injury as well, and he believes that long-term injuries should not be rushed, just like David Villa’s.
While speaking about David Villa, Carles Puyol said:
"He seems in good shape, full of desire, hope and intensity.”
"What happens is that with such a long-term injury the most important thing is not to rush.”
David Villa and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carles-Puyol-c8331 are expected to make a return to first-team action when Barcelona take on Manchester United in a pre-season friendly game.
