Following a successful transfer summer this year, the Catalans now possess incredible depth in their squad and Ernesto Valverde has been doing his best to manage his resources efficiently, giving rest to his key players in certain games and granting his reserve players the opportunity to prove themselves in other ones.
With this method, the manager has been getting the best out of his squad in recent weeks and despite injuries to certain players, the squad still looks alive especially as the reserve players are all impressing whenever they are called upon.
