FC Barcelona have now resumed their training as they look forward to some great pre-season games overseas. As you know, Barca will be taking on Dundee United in Scotland very soon and so Frank Rijkaard and his men have begun their preparations with confidence in winning the titles they desire. Most notably, Victor Valdez, the Barca keeper who was quoted saying:

We have the best attack that any team can have

And why shouldn’t he think that when they have the likes of Ronaldinho, Eto’o, Henry and Lionel Messi attacking the opposition goal.

Injuries Force Some To Stay In Barca 

For this trip to Scotland, Barca will have the following players out due to injury or extended holiday, in this case due to the Copa America:

• Gudjohsen (left knee injury picked up from last season)
• Puyol ( right knee ligament damage picked up from last season)
• Messi (Copa America holiday rest)
• Marquez (Copa America holiday rest)
• Milito (Copa America holiday rest)

Ronaldinho and Henry enjoy training which seems to help their friendship even more, but…

It can help their competitive spirit even more, and that translates on the field (Note Ronaldinho’s newer 10R boots)

Finishing off the training session, the team indulge in some head juggling. Fun but effective during matches.
