Eric Garcia, on the podium of minutes of the Barca preseason
The center back has been one of the players most used by Xavi in preseason. In contrast, Gerard Pique has barely played more than Pjanic and the homegrown players Abde, Collado and Casado.
After finishing his tour of the United States, Barcelona only has Joan Gamper against Pumas before the official season begins . With a balance of three victories and a draw, the distribution of minutes made by Xavi Herna
ndez elucidates several doubts of the eleven blaugrana.
It is not surprising that Ter Stegen, Jordi Alba and Busquets are among the players with the most minutes on the pitch . Without guarantee replacements, the goalkeeper has played 225 minutes, compared to 214 for the full-back and 213 for the midfielder. The surprise comes with Eric García . The Martorell center-back stands out as the second most used player by Xavi , with the same minutes as the left-back.
