FC Barcelona B

[Porque]

We lost.

Mingueza spent too much time with the first team. Brought the loser DNA to the B.

Real Madrid Castilla are also out despite a 0-0 draw because of the weird rulings.

We're out.

Feel bad for Inaki.


Also, Raquel

Thank god, no segunda to destroy our cantera development

Lol this PK shoot out is so funny. Opponent's GK makes an epic save last pk.

Does that mean segunda too hard for player development???

For a team full of youth (22 or under) it is really difficult.
Tough to build a winning culture needed while putting priority on player improvement

Right though i think a harder level will make players better.

It's been a nice run. The new Third division format will be more competitive than the old Segunda B.

Besides, I don't think we will have the budget to properly recruit the necessary talents to stay competitive in Segunda while also developing our key prospects. But it is disappointing not to reach the final.

It is probably the end of the road for Matheus, Collado, Hiroki, Rey Manaj and maybe Roger Riera in the B team. So it will be good to bleed in a few of the Juvenil A higher prospects like Gavi and Angel next year. And for that another season beneath Segunda may be the best option.

We'll apparently sign Antonio Aranda in coming days. He's a 20 years old midfielder whose contract with Granada is expiring. Has mostly played for their B team but also made a first team debut in Copa.

we lost Blanco

 

[Messi983]

He probably made the right decision if Frankfurt offered him first team minutes. Will be interesting to follow his development there.

B team stats for this season.

According to Ferran Martinez we're planning to bring 5 players on free transfers.

Two former La Masia kids Adrian Bernabe (Man City, 19, LB) and Kays Ruiz (PSG, 18, CM) could return to the club alongside Ferran Jutgla (Espanyol, 22, winger), Antonio Aranda (Granada, 20, midfielder) and Sergio Carreira (Celta, 20, RB).

Good moves. Bernabe not really necessary considering our LBs but alas. Never seen Ferran, Aranda or Carreira obv but all are in positions we require.

Bernabe was AM originally, but converted to LB at City
La Masia cultist are suggesting he is Collado replacement
