5 reasons why Barcelona could end up trophy-less this season

#1 Messi reliance

King Messi

The thing with Lionel Messi is that he is perhaps the only player in the world that doesn’t let you down, in most cases, when you rely on him. He is, however, human. Yes, people think that he is a God—and when he plays at his best, it does feel like that—but even his body ha limitations.

The Argentine has played the most minutes for Barcelona among the outfield player and ranks second only to Gerardo Moreno in La Liga in that regard. Playing so much football is bound to make a player feel jaded after a while, which can affect his performances.

So far, Messi has done incredibly well to save the team countless times. However, Barcelona look like a heavily disjointed team where Messi connects the dots. If, however, he falls, he takes Barcelona with him.
