Griezmann was already a starter this season, hom starting again isn't a change.
That is 7 players who are sure to continue being starter.
Coutinho was also a starter during embarrassment against Liverpool. Him back isn't a positive change.

You add that to the fact we are fighting to keep Messi, then all the change is really benching Busquets and moving Suarez out. And getting upgrade over the 3rd midfielder (Arthur/Vidal/Roberto/Rakitic)
It is decent change but not really cleaning any house or even a true rebuilding attempt.

Thank you. I'm about to reply them exactly this.
It is a change. I know this is the most we can do in a season.

But it is not what the board trying to market which I know it's not realistic since I heard it. That is my point.

People fell for Barto PR once again.

Fully agree. After Barto's press conference after the 8-2 , I was certain he was blowing smoke. Afterwards came those Suarez reports that caught me off guard and I thought something might change , nothing what the rat fuck and the media were peddling , but something.

Yet here we are 2 days before pre-season and not a single senior player has been officially sold. Even having these senior players in the team and not being part of the first 11 is just not good enough imo.

Reason I hate national team managers, they will always try to make a club the second version of their national team when there are far better players available. Next 3 seasons are a write off.

Lol, calm down, if we won't have Suarez, Messi, Vidal, and Busquets in the starting team, this is fundamental restructuring. It means every amigo from midfield and offense is gone. Hello pressing and running again.

And when things get tough and there is alot of pressure , they can easily find themselves back in the starting 11 , they need to leave. But that was not my point , pre-season is starting soon and officially not a single player has been sold (this was my point).

They won't leave with the contracts they are under, unless they see they don't play much anymore. What people want is unreasonable.

I reckon that we will just start the season on the 12th of September, no friendlies played? Why haven't La Liga released the fixtures yet? EPL did it ages ago. The season is in just 13 days. Until which date is the transfer window open? So vague.

Depending on the calendar, we could be in for a very rough start.
