If the statistics were those that ratify, or not, the work of a forward, David Villa can be calm ... and Alexis Sánchez very worried. The Spaniard achieved against Alavés, in the first leg of the Copa del Rey round of 32, the first goal for Barcelona, ​​which opened the scoring (0-3 at the end). It is the fifth goal he has achieved this season in which he gradually gains prominence after overcoming a long injury. Instead, the Chilean left empty and again signaled by the numbers.


Alexis arrived at Barcelona last season at the blow of his checkbook, but between injuries, lack of adaptation and the Real Madrid jerseys, excuses you can imagine, he has not yet exploded. In his second campaign, all eyes are on him, and he's noticing the pressure: between the League, the Champions League and the King's Cup, he has scored just one goal. Little for the 708 minutes he has played.


On the other hand, Villa, who also came to the Barcelona club for a fortune, has achieved 5 goals in 363 minutes in the same competitions. The difference is overwhelming in favor of the 'seven' Barça, who is showing that he has the goal in his blood, unlike the 'nine', who does not finish starting in the scoring facet no matter how much he shoots on goal.

But it is still worse for Alexis or better for Villa. If the sensations were those that ratify, or not, the work of a forward, the South American has a black future. With him, the feeling of danger is less. He tries, but things don't work out and his shots end in a "whoops!" like the one in minute 37, when he shot and almost found the squad. And when they come out, the referee cancels the goal for an offside that does not exist.


Instead, Villa gets everything. His goal at the end of the first half, two minutes after the chance of his teammate on the attack line, after a great pass from Iniesta, shows that he is in a state of grace. He does find the squad when he shoots and puts the ball into the rival goal. He does seem more attuned to his peers.


Villa started the season as a substitute because he was still recovering from the serious injury he suffered in December 2011, but with his performances he is gaining ownership to the detriment of an Alexis 'Maravilla' Sánchez to whom things have not quite worked out. Against Alavés, he made a decisive contribution to the 2012 barcelona jerseys putting the tie on track.
