Busquets out, Dest and Dembele in: Barcelona best XI to attack November fixtures
The Catalans have 5 games this month, we have pick up the best possible line-up, giving all our squad issues.
Here are the games Barcelona will play in November:
vs Dynamo Kyiv (H), November 4
vs Real Betis (H), November 7
vs Atletico Madrid (A), November 21
vs Dynamo Kyiv (A), November 24
vs Osasuna (H), November 28
Here's the strongest starting XI that the Catalans can field for this month:
Starting XI: Ter Stegen; Dest, Pique, Lenglet, Alba; Pjanic, De Jong; Dembele, Pedri, Fati; Messi.
Ter Stegen is expected to receive the medical all-clear already this Wednesday, ahead of the Dynamo Kyiv game.
Sergino Dest was the best player against Real Madrid and added the much-needed spark against Alaves: hopefully, he features more often this month.
Miralem Pjanic appears to be better than Sergio Busquets in almost every aspect, as the Bosnian's solid displays against both Juventus and Alaves confirm.
Pedri has been impressive of late, replacing injured Philippe Coutinho as a playmaking midfielder.
Finally, there is a heated competition on both wings but Francisco Trincao and Antoine Griezmann appear to be slightly behind even though the Frenchman finally ended his goalless drought on Saturday.
