This will be our first serious rivals of the summer. When offering the fans the option to pick their favourite starting lineup from two options, they went with the one with more regular starters. Here’s what it looks like.
Barcelona XI: Ter Stegen – Dest, Araujo, Christensen, Alba – Busquets, De Jong, Pedri – Raphinha, Lewandowski, Ansu Fati.
However, there are some fans that don’t want to see Frenkie de Jong starting. Instead, they believe that it would make more sense to use Franck Kessie in his position.
Kinglsey Tunechi: “Option 1 is the best, you can start Kessie ahead of De Jong because of his physicality.”
Charlenn Maduquete: “I hate seeing De Jong in the starting lineup, he is destroyed mentally, he loses too many balls, 70% of his passes are ending in our opponents’ feet.”
Ophlatus: “Option 1, but Kessie instead of de Jong. Best opportunity to test what so much money was spent for – playing against Real Madrid.”
