How many Barca B players can plays for A team at the same time? Is it 4 or 5?

 

[Andresito]

Will be fun to see the bench players get a chance.

We can take a look at last year's first lineup to get a hint of what to expect:

Cillessen
Semedo - Mascherano - Vermaelen - Digne
Aleña - Gomes - Denis
Deulofeu - Paco - Arnaiz

Bench: Ortola, Roberto, Cucurella, Piqué, Rakitic


Tomorrow I hope to see something like this:

Cillessen
Semedo - Chumi - Cuenca/Lenglet - Miranda
Aleña - Vidal - Denis
Malcom - Munir - Dembélé

Denis I feel is stealing playing time from Riqui.

I miss maybe 4/5 barca matches a year. But these first few copa matches along with a final cl match(if pointless) I always skip on purpose. Expect an easy 0-3.

 

[jairzinho]

Hope we're not playing on a potato patch.

What Gomes?

Two years ago, Barca drew at Hercules in the first round of Copa. The team needs a good-sized win here, so that the core players can rest again during the return leg at Camp Nou.

This is a try-out game for the 2nd string. I think the team is going to send one or two of them away in January. Performing well might lead to more playing time, or preserve their jobs, or make a more attractive transfer possible.

The ones I never skip. Chance to see the bench. Don't know why really but like those.

Similar for me too in past years. Always interested to see youth getting chances to impress.

 

[Daniele]

Riqui Puig?

 

[clemente]

Kinda mad knowing that Malcom somehow won't get full 90 minutes

 

[Andresito]

What Gomes?

How many Gomes' played for Barca last season?

4 B-players can be on the pitch at the same time.
Aleña counts as a B-player.

 

[soul24rage]

hmm only 4 B-players. Then my line up would be this

Cillessen---Semedo, Chumi (1), Cuenca (2), Miranda (3)---Vidal, Bob (captain), Alena (4)---Malcom, Munir, Denis.

Have a feeling Dembele will start vs Betis

Is Samper counted as a B player?
