Ernesto Valverde needs to trust his Barcelona squad

The last time Barcelona successfully embarked on a treble winning campaign, they had several similarities to the current squad. Firstly, the duo of Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi, who remain one of the most potent attacking duos in the world of football, if not the most.

Secondly, the team is hungry for success after seeing arch-rivals Real Madrid capture their third successive Champions League trophy.

Thirdly, the squad possesses a depth that many teams would love to have. Malcom, Rafinha, Arthur, Arturo Vidal, Nelson Semedo, and even Clement Lenglet would walk into the starting lineup of most other European clubs.
