Nice article.
I just like to point out that if a team get relegated the reverse team will automatically be relegated to the lower league tier.

Last season and this season, attendence has only been above 10,000 once against Betis this season.

I agree with you on Gerard Deulofeu, I also think Marc Bartra will become a good player but I didn’t include them because I didn’t
want to just make a list of all the prospects in the squad.

This article could have provided more.

First team and B teams will never play in the same division, Even if Barca were relegated and Barca B finished top in Segunda,
Next season, Barca will be in Segunda and Barca B will forced 1 division further down, they can’t swap so to speak.

About playing style, its similar but also different, different in the way that the tempo is much much higher and they play more direct, bringin the ball much much quicker from the back to opposing box, hence they don’t have 70% possession stats and also end up loosing the ball a lot too.

Abut the attendance, sometimes attendance is greater than 10,000.

On new prospects, i am amazed you didn’t mention Deulofeu, this guy is the next big one of world football.
Watch out for him.
He’ll debut with 1st team some time this season.
