Is Ter Stegen more than he has made a mistake after defending Barcelona for 10 years?

Unknown to me, Ter Stegen is already 33 years old and has been in Barcelona for 10 years. Perhaps it is time to leave. In the past 10 years, except for winning the triple crown in the first year, Ter Stegen has only once reached the Champions League semi-finals as the main goalkeeper.

won 6 La Liga championship trophys, but only 4 and a half times were used as the main goalkeeper (before the injury this season). His characteristics at peak were that he went to the ground quickly, had a quick second save response, and had a high level in the goal line, which could change his shortcomings that were not tall enough.

The most impressive thing is the three consecutive saves in the goal line in the La Liga, and the two goal line rescues when the Triple Crown champion faced Lewandowski that year.

At the same time, in terms of attacking and handling high balls, Ter Stegen is also above the level and has no particularly obvious shortcomings. Although the short pass ability is average, the long pass power is good, the power is fast, and the vision is wide, so there are magical assists.

The most criticized Barcelona's crushing defeat in the Champions League knockout season actually has little to do with Ter Stegen, especially in the two Champions League knockout matches between Rome and Liverpool at home, Ter Stegen both made beautiful saves.

And in the second leg of the away game against Roma, Ter Stegen also saved the risk many times, which performed better than at Anfield.

can beat Liverpool 3-0 at home, and Ter Stegen contributed several very important saves and was the hero of the team's ability to win in the win in a clean sheet. In the away game, Liverpool lost 0-4, it was not easy for him to save Henderson's first shot. However, after the defense line collapsed, Barcelona needs to score goals on the offensive end to play momentum, otherwise the defense line will only get worse and worse.

Barcelona played well in the Champions League this season, but he still scored goals in adversity. Frick is much better than Valverde. Only when Barcelona can play their offensive characteristics can they have hope of winning. If you don't score goals in the frontcourt, Barcelona's defense will only lose more and less goals, so Ter Stegen does not need to bear too much responsibility for several miserable defeats in the Champions League.

However, this goalkeeper is already 33 years old and has suffered serious injuries. His characteristics of going to the ground to quickly react quickly will gradually become weaker. In particular, Ter Stegen is not a high-large goalkeeper. He relies heavily on ground reactions, and future landslides can also be predictable.

Barcelona's replacement of a better goalkeeper is the right choice, but it should be fair to Ter Stegen's past contributions and evaluations.
