Thiago will spend his time with the U19 national team, so he isn't listed for now.

this looks like a illegally secret player enhancement facility, especially the last pic lol.

hope at least 3-5 of these guys stay with the club throughout the season. i want to keep barcelona different from other clubs, many youth players in first team and a authentic style of play, MES QUE UN CLUB.

i see dalmau/muniesa/gai/thiago/rochina in the fist team in some years,for this year though they will get their chance in cup games,maybe gai and muniesa will take more time when we are winning 3-0 in other games too

xaviesta said...

Muniesa is my man! wish him all the best this season! hope he can make the step!

Marc said...

Based on what ive seen, i think Montoya is a better RB than Dalmau. But ive only seen Dalmau in the U-17 championship, he didnt played well then.

Ive seen Montoya a cuple of times, great speed and touch on the ball. He also very attacking. Intresting player.

Muniesa will be our centreback next to Pique in 2-3 years time! ;)

Manolo said...

Whats up with Pedro?

Not injured huh?

Jnice said...

Pedro is no longer a youth player.

IBES said...

Looking forward to see Johnathan and Gai. Jeffren impressed me alot and hope he gets more minutes in the copa del rey games.

Supposedly, Johnathan is even more highly rated than his brother Gio and we've all heard the hype about Gai but his injuries have limited his appearances. Don't recall which Barcelona press said it, but Gai might travel but not feature in the UK tour, is that confirmed?

Strange, no Victor Vazquez, is he still injured?

pep said...

He got the green light last week.

Manolo said...

Well look!
there we have the new "Tarzan"
Just look at the body of Muniesa,

When i was 17 i wasn't even close to have that kind of body!

barca4life said...

In 2-3 years strikers are gonna have nightmares about facing pique and muniesa. They are going to come off the field walking funny after coming up against those 2

tero said...

I believe in Muniesa,Gai and Thiago.Is that J.Dos Santos Gio's brother or what? Hope he keeps his feet on the ground for now

barca4life said...

Yeah J Dos Santos is gio's little bro.

Don Luis said...

jonathan is better then gio.

barca nike said...

Hope they impress Pep.

n9 said...

can someone please give an idea of what the starting formation for the tottenham game could be also the list of players that would be missing through extended holidays and injuries.

barca nike said...

extended holidays (eto'o-messi)
break because ofm Confd. Cup (Alves-pique-xavi-puyol-busquets)
Injuries Iniesta and Marquez

Leo10 said...

so, will we play a team that looks like,

- Valdes -

Maxwell - Muniesa - Toure - Abidal

- Keita -

Hleb - Gudjohnson

Jeffren - Bojan - Henry

Im not sure if i want to watch the game if thats the team, what do you think Pep, does that sound about right? Interested to see how much bojan dominates though.

barca nike said...

Leo 10 i dont think Maxwell will start as right back and toure at center when he has enogh youth players to play in those position.

Leo10 said...

who else could play centre back barca nike? pique and Puyol are away, OH i forgot! henrique, my apologies

Xaviniesta said...

this is really cool. hope we can continue with the practice of promoting young players (tho i understand guardiola is just testing out some of them). but anywho i hope our cantera policy will prosper some more with the next managment. rosell's stand can be a bit discouraging but there's time for him to change his mind, that is, if he gets elected.
