Is there any team that hasn't had similar permanent injury crisisis now days? Are there some data that compares ability to field the usual starting 11 from like 10 years back to now. Let's check the vax-tax. And just generally shit food and pharma. There's a reason why likes of Messi and Lewa have their own specific diet, which made them nearly invincible to injuries. Just don't eat shit, don't eat pills or inject yourself with mass produced snake feces.

We have December already and we still didn't play one single game this season with our best lineup, have we? If reports said Rapha, Lamine and Lewy stood recently for the first time since May together on the field and now either Pedri, or Frenkie is missing in the last weeks.

Fielding your top XI has become more difficult than winning a title in today's football. How the fuck do you want to show your best, if somebody is always missing? And even if by some miracle we can finally field our best starting XI, how long it's going to take until one needs to sit out again, talking about getting used to each other for automatisms to work? How many teams have similar problems?

Yet there is no outrage how the sport is being ruined in front of our eyes.

That's definitely part of it, but I also think Flick has no idea what is actually the best lineup. Defense has been shambolic the whole season. It's been too much of a change all the time. It's a mess overall.

I do believe the offense is set when healthy, Yamal-Lewy-Raphy

Midfield spots Pedri and DeJong are set.

Defense Balde and Kounde are set because no other options. CBs no one is set really.

Big chance for Martin. If he makes a good game, he'll stay in the starting XI.

Garcia now accepted as better midfielder than Casado.. interesting times.

Better than de average too, he can actually defend.

Maybe if we started him, vs inter at DM, in the game frenkie "outplayed" Pedri, we wouldn't concede 4 goals, because he actually knows how to position himself as DM.

Garcia > casado & frenkie who would have thought it.

Flick having to rely on Eric in midfield and Martin at CB is disappointing part of Barca affairs. Not to mention Cuba, Kounde or Balde looking nothing like players that would start for any top club.

Oh, and veteran up-front.

Any kind of win here will be great.

Yeah. Garcia should fight with Cubarsi for 2nd CB spot, starting CB signed + Ederson from Atalanta signed as DM or some other physical player. Just two starters in central axis, strong players able to cope with high intensity flotball, and we'd improve. Sell Araujo if possible by some miracle and whoever brings more money from Casado, Fermin, Olmo. Which would be Fermin most likely.

Normally we'd need more than 2 starters signed next summer. But if money are low some good CB and a DM would do for next season.
