Our squad is too short first of all. Some injuries and you have to play players like Fermin and Yamal, that last season were playing junior football probably. Kids with no experience that should play 15-20 mins at the end of games when the lead is cozy.

Probably City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Bayern and Madrid in no order. 6-7th best, which is still pretty good, considering other teams spent much more than us.

Funny how winning 'second most important trophy' or whatever you claim La Liga is only applies to Xavi.

Yet when it comes to players doesnt mean much and other teams are better.

Lamal is a Spanish international who was starting when whole squad was fit at times.

But much to make out just relying on kids when he forced his way in on performance.

Fermin Xavi chose to keep in squad while letting more experienced players like Kessie and Nico leave... again cant claim that is Barca being forced to rely on 'kids'.

The opposite is true...the fact Barca have these players coming through is a huge plus for the squad.

With everyone fit, our squad is probably equal to Liverpool, maybe Liverpool's is better because they have more top level proven players in recent years.

And their front 3 is way better than ours.

If we met Liverpool in the CL, solely based off starting XI, taking both coaches out of it, I'd put my money on Liverpool.

Liverpools front three bar Salah has not been that great.

Would fancy Barcas midfield v Liverpool. They lack balance at times.

Maybe Liverpool due to Klopp would be favs slightly.

Very rarely is everyone fit. First 11 is top 3-4. Squad is lacking behind.

If everyone is fit, then we can compete with anyone. But how many games have we played vs a top team with the main 11 all fit? Almost none.

That's fair, but we also have the depth to absorb in defense and midfield at times.

For example got Gundogan, Pedri, De Jong and Gavi midfield already, Kounde Christensen Araujo for centre backs, so there are some top level backups there too.
