What you fail to consider is how the youngsters will fare when facing real competition. Not saying they won't do well, but usually that's where inexperience shows, and poor take-ons and misplaced passes at the wrong time can be costly. Pedro, for instance, is still more accurate than Neymar at passing the ball in tight spaces and maintaining possession under pressure, and there are times that will be the better choice. You don't necessarily want all three attackers taking the same level of risks, or test a youngster in a tight game when you don't have to.

(and, though we know his swag and endorsements will continue to grow, we've yet to see if Neymar's finishing likewise improves in his second season against La Liga defenses)

Most Liga defenses are as poor as Club Leon's. It's only Atletico and Madrid where the true test lies. And last I checked Pedro plays poorly against top teams.

"Pedro has been in hospital for the past days. The winger has a stomach bug and didn't play against Club Leon on Monday. [rac1]"

Wow, didn't know it was that bad? Anyone know exactly what kind of bug he has and how long he will be out? Get well soon Pedro! :)

Wow. Kk. Is he also better passer than Messi? I mean Pedro does do the safe pass back more often it must be true?

Pedro is definitely a better passer in tight spaces than Neymar. Has often been key in buildup to goals around the box with slick silk-glove one-touch wall passes, often with Messi on the right side- including last season, although few people pay attention to anything but key pass through balls and the final touch for an assist. It's a La Masia thing. Neymar is still adjusting to the tighter spaces and better weighted passes required for Barça's play in La Liga. Took Sanchez a few seasons, but he made steady improvement; no reason to think Neymar can't make the same improvement.

Gastroenteritis can have any number of causes, most likely a virus. Most likely won't be match fit for at least a couple weeks.

With the way how Munir is playing, if he can transfer to La Liga level he'll leap frog pedro. If he scores tomorrow Pedro is in a lot of trouble.
