Barcelona’s changed line up after news of eight-week Messi injury.
Barcelona look set to be severely under-strength for around eight weeks after the blow of the Lionel Messi injury picked up at the weekend, so here’s a look at how Luis Enrique’s side can line up without the Argentine…
GK: Marc-Andre ter Stegen
Seemingly ahead of Claudio Bravo as Barcelona’s number one this season, German starlet Marc-Andre ter Stegen is a solid choice in goal for the Catalan giants.
DR: Dani Alves
The experienced Brazilian right-back may miss combining with Messi on this side, but remains an influential and dangerous attacking player.
DL: Jordi Alba
Another superb attacker from the back for Barcelona, Jordi Alba’s energy going box to box will be key for Luis Enrique’s side in the coming weeks.
