On November 1, "AS" reported that some Barcelona players believed that strength training was insufficient, so they did extra training.

Data shows that compared with last season, Barcelona's physical parameters have dropped significantly this season, which is reflected in both training and competition. The club are also aware that this decline in form is one of the reasons why there have been so many injuries in the opening stages of the season, with thirteen players injured in three months of competitive play so far.

The dissatisfaction within the team is obvious. According to RAC1 and confirmed by AS, several first-team players have had to complete their fitness training outside the club's facilities. The main complaint from the players is that there is not enough strength training in the gym, so they have to do extra training outside the Sports City, and in some cases even hire private experts.

In fact, some players have long begun to seek external help to supplement physical and even mental training. Ferran Torres, for example, needed help with his anxiety issues and turned to a personal trainer to break out of a negative cycle of injuries.

In any case, the club’s internal assessment believes that they have one of the best strength training experts in the world, namely Julio Toos, the current head of fitness for the first team, and therefore believe that this situation can be reversed quickly. In fact, if Harvey continues to coach, Toews will also join the coaching staff as the head of strength training.

Therefore, the club has discovered these deficiencies and will make every effort to correct this defect and invest more time and professionals in gym strength training from now on.

In addition, "World Sports News" once reported that Yamal went to a doctor outside the club to evaluate the condition of his pubic bone. AS understands that all inquiries from Yamal are carried out under the direct supervision of Barcelona. In fact, it was the club itself that directed Yamal to seek advice from other experts on resolving his osteitis pubis problem. The advice from all experts is to maintain conservative treatment and follow existing regimens. In fact, as of now, no one has recommended that he undergo surgery.
