Sergio Busquets

Started all but 3 games so far this season. Only ones he didn't start were the 1st game against Napoli (playing 25min), the 1st game against Gala (playing 45 min) and the la liga game against Mallorca in January where he was suspended.

Playing full 90min almost every game, 47 games 4000+ minutes.

Turning 34 this summer, contract currently running until 2023. Really wonder what the club is planning there, renew and keep playing him every second until the day he decides to retire? Sounds good.

We were lucky Betis didn't go 2-1 on that header in 82nd minute when Busquets got r.aped and didn't even jump.
Neto looked furious.

Another 90'. We wont get rid of this guy ever.

Just checked:

La liga, out of 35 liga games he started in 34(against mallorca yellow card suspension)
He was substituted in 4 of them:
Matchday 1 against sociedad at 83'
Matchday 4 against granada at 74'
Matchday 14 against espanyol at 78'
Matchday 26 against bilbao at 87'

He didnt played for 38 minutes out of possible 3060 minutes.
He's 7th ranked in whole liga by minutes, only player who played all possible minutes is le normand for sociedad who's cb and is 24 years old. All other players from top 10 are goalkeepers, first player older then 30 is at 26th place dani rodriguez with almost 300 minutes less.

He played supercopa for 120 minutes( extra time against madrid), copa del rey in two possible games he played 210 minutes( extra time against bilbao)

Champions league 6 starts subbed of against bayern at 59' and against benfica at 68', that leaves him without 53 minutes out of possible 540 minutes.

Europa league had 4 out of 6 starts, played in all and out of 540 minutes played 401 minutes.

Overall 4240 minutes for ancient one out of possible 4470 minutes, 4560 minutes if you put that mallorca game when he was suspended.

OH. MY. GOD.

Every manager has played Busquets extensively ever since he supplanted Yaya.

Not just a Xavi thing only.


21/22 4240 minutes out of 49 games

20/21 total minutes 3518 out of 50 games
19/20 total minutes 3265 out of 43 games
18/19 total minutes 4333 out of 54 games
17/18 total minutes 4164 out of 50 games
16/17 total minutes 3928 out of 48 games
15/16 total minutes 4422 out of 53 games
14/15 total minutes 3550 out of 46 games

Ancient one is benjamin button, as he grows older he plays more minutes.

Only season where he played similar amount like this year was when he was 28 years old.

I mean, are you guys insane? At Dm?

Xavi said today that Barcelona does not have player of type like Busqets and they need new players to some positions.

It is obvious that they don't count De Jong on CDM.

Maybe they will bring new CDM?

If we look for someone the same as Busquets then we will be bringing Busquets back in 2028- like we done with Dani Alves.
