La Liga Round 27: Barca - Osasuna 3-0

[Andresito]

Araujo is in Uruguay's match squad for tonight so it's more likely Iñigo starts with Eric.

What about Raphinha

 

[Messi983]

With Raphinha unavailable I think Lamine will def start this one but he should be on the bench against Girona.

Never in doubt. Can't expect foreign FA's to suddenly drop Barca players based on RFEF ruling.

What should have happened though was after the date was set, all Spanish NT players get option to be recalled from NT.

What about Raphinha

Should be out 100%

 

[Andresito]

Pau Cubarsí is ruled out for the game against Osasuna. Iñigo Martínez and Eric García will be Barça's two centre-backs on Thursday. @fansjavimiguel

 

[JamDav1982]

Pedri and Gavi start in the two but with Pedri the more defensive and linking with the back four and Gavi with more freedom to move and press.

If ahead switch out Pedri for FDJ for last half hour or so and reverse it v Girona.

 

[serghei]

This is a good match for Gavi to start producing better football. His contribution has been almost nonexistent this season, apart from those Arabian Supercup games.

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

This is a good match for Gavi to start producing better football.

Nothing wrong with being optimistic bro

Araujo didn't play but doubt he'll be ready for Osasuna

Araujo didn't play but doubt he'll be ready for Osasuna

He'll take a private jet with Raphinha apparently and land in Barcelona around 26 hours before the game. Maybe they play a bit. Far from ideal though with possible injury risk.

 

[TheStig]

I think they'll be on the bench. Maybe Raphinha enters if the result won't be good.

 

[Barcaman]

Flick: "Araujo and Raphinha WILL NOT play. The journey is too long and they need rest."

 

[Barcaman]

Hansi Flick: "Éric and Iñigo will play tomorrow and Pau will be on the bench. He will have a few extra days because he needs recovery. I think he won't play."

Flick: "Lewandowski is fit and will be ready. Tomorrow we will decide whether he will start or not. His condition is optimal. Ferran is also doing well."
