FC BARCELONA "OVER POPULATED" MIDFIELD

Spanish Sports daily "Mundo Deportivo" highlights an interesting dilemma for FC Barcelona, the current "over population of midfield players". Ironic really, while 98% of World Football Clubs would consider this story a blessing in their case, Clubs like FC Barcelona & Real Madrid may see this a problem. 

While there has been much speculation at Real Madrid with their saturation of midfield players with their latest signings (Kross & James Rodriguez), Barça also has apparently too much manpower in the centre. For example the right side of midfield has potential 4 players bidding for that particular spot.

Although it may sounds "alarming" the Spanish Football season is a long one, a period full of uncertainties that calls for a solid squad full of players that can fill in gaps when called for. A list of injuries will be present & could get long, not to mention the need to give players rest. Thus this may actually not be a problem.

I have not doubt that before the end of the summer signing/transfer period FC Barcelona may sell or loan out players, including the names like Afellay & Song, while Xavi Hernandez will have less responsibilities this season.

As you can see, a huge problem for Barça :O)
