I can't imagine Busquets and Alba lifting another Cl cup. That would be just too surreal to be true. LL would be possible even with last years squad.

No way can a club with Busquets starting at DM in 2022 and Alba at LB be considered 'arguably top 3', atleast imo
This season I can see us playing beautiful football but when it really matters, the usual suspects will undo the good work and let us down.

I don't think you think.
Liga is must win. The only opponent is Real. Atletico, i think they are not getting stronger than last season. And there is no new powerhouse in Spain. So only Real stand on the way.
UCL is very tricky. But it is also must win (at least to media). But i can see another early loss.

CL is not a must win. Make it to top8 is a good start imo. I'd be shocked if we beat City/Liverpool/Bayern or even PSG.
I think we need some learning.

Xavi seen we needed better CBs so that's why we brought in Christensen and Kounde. Our attack got upgraded big time with Lewan and Raphinha to go along with the likes of Ferran, Fati and Dembele being renewed.
But He still hasn't figured out the Midfield or the main issue with it. We got some interesting pieces but, the issue is he's hell bent on trying to have Busi the center of everything there, that may have worked years ago when he was much younger but not anymore.
Having the likes of Kounde, Araujo and Christensen as options will help at least cover up some of those deficiencies but again we are putting too much work and faith in the idea those guys would be able to cover up all the massive holes. Considering Jordi Alba and our current RB options are not good enough right now.
We are going to have games where it's basically Araujo-Kounde/Christensen against the world, I guarantee it at trying to keep us in the game because they ain't getting much help from the fullbacks nor the Midfield.

Busquets played well in the first half against Juve ..

That is his choice, he's fault.
Perharp. That's why Liga is must win.
Many Barca players will play WC too. But of course no excuse for not winning Liga.
