Luis Enrique has chosen 18 players for Wednesday's big game
The next Barcelona match is upon us! The Blaugrana have a massive UEFA Champions League match against Manchester City on Wednesday, and coach Luis Enrique has selected 21 players to form the squad for the game at Camp Nou:
Goalkeepers: 1. Marc-André ter Stegen, 25. Jordi Masip
Defenders: 3. Gerard Piqué, 14. Javier Mascherano, 18. Jordi Alba, 19. Lucas Digne, 20. Sergi Roberto, 22. Aleix Vidal, 23. Samuel Umtiti, 24. Jérémy Mathieu
Midfielders: 4. Ivan Rakitic, 5. Sergio Busquets, 6. Denis Suarez, 7. Arda Turan, 8. Andrés Iniesta, 12. Rafinha Alcântara, 21. André Gomes
Forwards: 9. Luis Suárez, 10. Lionel Messi, 11. Neymar Jr., 17. Paco Alcácer
No surprises from Lucho, although he has to drop three of the players on the list to form a definitive 18-man squad. This is probably just some mind games; Lucho doesn't want to give Pep any idea of his plans, and leaving out someone like Denis Suarez or Rafinha would make it easier for Guardiola to predict a certain lineup of tactical option.
