I said it from the beginning,that the kind of work Xavi has to do now is much more than the one he did last year because he has more than one team competing fiercely with him for the Lalliga tittle this season,and moreover,Madrid are more serious this season because they don't want Xavi to win the league back to back, especially now that they have a young and energetic team that is willing to do any thing possible to be at the top.Xavi must devise a mean in which he has to deal with this injury crisis before it will be the cause of their drop in performance.
I really love the healthy competition between the teams in the Lalliga now.

Like Real Madrid, they also have many players who are injured. These two teams are the same, they don't benefit from their players playing matches with their respective national teams. In fact, the one who actually has the most injured players is Real Madrid. There are two new Madrid players who have been absent for quite a long time, namely, Vini Jr and Camavinga. If my reference is not wrong, these two players are scheduled to return in January 2024. apart from that, there are other players such as Militao, Guler, Courtois, who are likely to need time to recover.

While Barcelona, referring to the same source, only Gavi is confirmed to be absent for a long time. De Jong and Ser Stegen are scheduled to recover in the next 1-2 weeks. for Sergio Roberto, this player is not very important. Well, looking at this situation, the advantage is actually the other team. it could be for Girona, or Atletico Madrid.
referring to what you said, since the start of the season Xavi has prepared his squad to be more competitive than last season. The problem is, previously several of their players were injured. But now only Gavi needs time and a recovery process, the other players are scheduled to be ready to play their matches, including Pedri. So, let's see which team remains consistent in playing match after match in this competition.

Most of the teams can actually not prepare for any kind of injury situation. And here we are talking about Barcelona who literally does not have any money. So I don't think people actually expected them to prepare for a big injury problem. but still, people are going to be very interested in how they are going to perform. Because regardless of what happens people want to see good performances from their favorite clubs. And honestly, there is no excuse for being in such financial trouble. They could have managed their finances better. but that’s another story. I think if Barcelona players are all available, Barcelona is going to perform well and probably even give a good fight for the title.
