This is a difficult time for Barcelona, both for the players and the manager. Gavi is an important player of the team, and his presence is well recognised and appreciated. His injury appears to be severe, and he could be out for the rest of the season. These are difficult times for both Barcelona and Real Madrid, as Real Madrid is also dealing with injuries as a result of the international break.
When these players complain about these things, fans, and FAs say they're paid to play so they should play. They'll even point to how much they're paid. Even if a player is paid a billion a week, his body will still break down when it can't go on anymore.
The games are too much, there's not enough time for these players to rest. FIFA and other regulatory bodies just keep adding more competitions and changing the current competitions to include more games.
It doesn't matter how much these players earn, they're still humans.
I this goes on for a long time, we'll begin to see that players can't remain in top form for a long time due to injuries. Gavi might not be the same when he comes back from injury around August next year. That's about 10 months without football. We saw how Fati suffered, Pedri too, and now Gavi.
Vinicius has been struggling with injuries and has not gotten an opportunity to heal properly. It's killing the players and therefore killing the game.
