Barca's injury crisis shown in lineup

Sergi Roberto has joined Barcelona's injury list after picking up a muscle problem.

Roberto's injury means that Barca have at least one senior player injured in every department on the pitch, except goalkeeping.

Here's a lineup pic that puts Barca's injury crisis in perspective:

The injury to Roberto means there's no backup for Joao Cancelo at right-back since Kounde is also injured.

There's also a gap in midfield with Pedri and Frenkie De Jong missing through injury.

A solution being explored by Xavi is to dig into Barca B to make up the missing numbers. On Wednesday, the entire Barca Athletic squad trained with the senior team. Both Xavi and Barca B coach Rapha Marquez watched the boys closely.
