People will put all the blame towards the Spanish coach, but Barca have continuously played this 19 year old kid for a long while now.

Surely at that age minutes should be managed more sensibly instead of relentless playing time?

Seems the norm in current football, Barça is pushing literal teenagers to their limits and De La Fuente already pushed Pedri further to the point that he can't stay in the field at the age of 21.

RM has a similar issue with injuries but Camavinga is already 21 and the rest of their injured players are older. But in general, teams are being over reliant on teenagers and players in their very early 20s, what makes me guess if those players will be healthy in 10 years.
