To say this season has been tough for Barcelona would be an understatement verging on the ridiculous.
After the Lionel Messi transfer saga came to an uneasy end there has been a dire run of form, some disastrous financial results, the resignation of club president Josep Maria Bartomeu, the postponement of the election to choose his permanent successor and the leak of Messi’s whopping €555million contract.
But in among the dark clouds of the ongoing football-political shitstorm, there have been a few bright spots, a few little things that Barcelona fans can hang onto with hope for a better future.
Fleet-footed young midfielder Pedri has without doubt been the most dazzling among them, but on Sunday night in Seville, they saw another too, in the shape of 21-year-old Portuguese winger Francisco Trincao.
With Barcelona trailing to Real Betis, Trincao was introduced alongside Messi with an hour gone. Between them, they proceeded to win the game for Ronald Koeman’s side.
