It may come as a shock but La Liga and UEFA are actually two different governing bodies.So has the transfer window..

Firstly it would penalise teams who have planned their squads correctly to be able to manage injuries.Well personally I don't think it's that unfair as all the clubs in the league will have had to vote for it to be implemented in the first place. I'm sure it's a rule that if you have two players from the same or similar position out for the season then you're allowed to sign a replacement, which I find quite fair tbh and think the PL should implement something similar.
When Pogba and McTominay first got their injuries, we should've been able to bring in a replacement under certain circumstances, ie the player must be a loan and hasn't started a certain amount of games for their club like Llorente. It would keep teams being able to compete and ensure further injuries don't occur to other players due to over playing them because of injuries.
Bear in mind that in Spain only players strictly under 19(when the registration window opens) don't have to be registered. In England, for example, it's players under 21. If I'm not mistaken no one in Barcelona B fits outside of Ansu Fati, so they would have to go to the under 19 team.Doesn’t make sense as Barcelona have a B team who most probably have loads of fit attackers. Thats what any other club would have to do - play the youngsters.
Most people aren't aware of the exemption clause they are using in La Liga, whose to say there isn't one for CL as well.It may come as a shock but La Liga and UEFA are actually two different governing bodies.
Fair enough well then it’s time to blood some U19s in then!Bear in mind that in Spain only players strictly under 19(when the registration window opens) don't have to be registered.

It doesn't. It gives an "advantage" to those who didn't, that's not the same as penalising all other teams who did.Firstly it would penalise teams who have planned their squads correctly to be able to manage injuries.
Imagine having Messi, Griezmann and Ansu Fati as your only available attackers? I bet they also struggle to survive on their diet Caviar and Lobster.Suarez is injured too. Their only fit attackers at the minute are Messi and Griezmann. Ansu Fati too (16 years old).
It is a bit dodgy - as is literally everything Barcelona do - but it does make sense. They have barely anybody left fit. Self inflicted issue notwithstanding.
And they play Getafe next?this is what happens when your league is run by two big clubs who control all the money. the fact that Getafe is third in the table and Barca is trying to take away their leading scorer makes it even worse.
Yes but they might be getting a player who is better than Dembele's replacement in the squad.It doesn't. It gives an "advantage" to those who didn't, that's not the same as penalising all other teams who did.
And it's not even an advantage since they won't be able to sign anyone that's even remotely as good as Dembele, in this specific case.
That's possible yeah. Still, I think it's a big fuss over nothing, better to wait and see if they get someone and if they do, which player it is.Yes but they might be getting a player who is better than Dembele's replacement in the squad.
It's not that whether it's Barca or some other team, it's such a weird rule that can be abused easily.That's possible yeah. Still, I think it's a big fuss over nothing, better to wait and see if they get someone and if they do, which player it is.
The fact that it's a rule means probaby means that all La Liga teams were alright with it, but now that it's Barcelona it's suddenly a big deal. As long as it's the same rule for every team in the league and it doesn't affect international games, it's not that big a deal. That said I think it's a pretty poor rule since it gives some sort of advantage to teams with poor squad management, although it was probably meant for really bad injury crisis stuff.
There is no perfect management of squads when it comes to injuries though, unless you stockpile 3-5 players per position.Firstly it would penalise teams who have planned their squads correctly to be able to manage injuries.
Secondly it provides less chances for a young player to step into the role
Thirdly it penalises teams who cannot afford to bring in an emergency replacement
Lastly if the signings are from within the league only. At least one club is going to get screwed
They have 3 players for the striker position? Its not that much of a crisis that they should go out and get another one in.There is no perfect management of squads when it comes to injuries though, unless you stockpile 3-5 players per position.
In the case of Barcelona, would you feel it's fair putting the onus on a young player to get you goals that'll win you the league? Or would it be more beneficial to bring in an ageing and experienced striker and have the young player on the bench to come on when the experienced striker has got those goals etc?
Barcelona can indeed just go and pay a release clause, say they activate the release clause of the Getafe striker, who's screwing them, Barcelona for paying the release clause, or themselves as the release clause was easily activated, ie a modest amount for an important player?
PL rules for goalkeepers are a special exemption. There's no such get out of jail clause for outfield players.Pretty sure this happened in the Premier League not too long ago. One club was allowed to sign an emergency goalkeeper. Really can't remember who it was
Barca should play some other senior player in attack, such as a midfielder. Like City had to when all their centre backs were injured or out.... In the case of Barcelona, would you feel it's fair putting the onus on a young player to get you goals that'll win you the league? ...
The problem is, they're challenging for the league, PL and cups, say if they don't bring anyone in and those 3 had to play all season and Messi got injured, there'd be a huge backlash from not on Barca fans but the media for not getting that striker option that was available to them.They have 3 players for the striker position? Its not that much of a crisis that they should go out and get another one in.
If he's not now, he probably will be later.Ill bet any money Demebele isnt really out for 6 months
I don't know about Spain but in France that decision isn't on the club but the FAs doctors and it's 3 months not 6.Ill bet any money Demebele isnt really out for 6 months
It’s actually the league screwing them, they knew Suarez whilst the window was open and didn’t get an attacker in, that’s their own problem.There is no perfect management of squads when it comes to injuries though, unless you stockpile 3-5 players per position.

If this is true, all of football should be working hard to veto it. Absolutely unacceptable, and the potential floodgates it opens shouldn't even be on the table.
Yeah, for Barcelona.Suarez is injured too. Their only fit attackers at the minute are Messi and Griezmann. Ansu Fati too (16 years old).

Got to complete his career mode on Fifa21Ill bet any money Demebele isnt really out for 6 months
