In September, Lionel Messi injured his knee in Barcelona's 2-1 win against Las Palmas in La Liga. According to media reports, his recovery has suffered setbacks and he will not be fit for El Clasico — Barcelona's clash against fellow La Liga titans Real Madrid — on Nov. 21.
This Luis Suarez goal vs Eibar is what soccer fans expect from Barcelona. We all know the style that Barca plays with. They execute crisp passes, everyone seems to always be in the right place, and they are miles ahead of their opponents. This goal was no different as they equalized the match at 1-1.
Well, the MLSB playoffs are still going on, and the Detroit Tigers aren't in them. Because of that, Tigers' slugger Miguel Cabrera took a little trip to Barcelona, where he met all the Barcelona superstars. The Miguel Cabrera Barcelona adventure included, obviously, a lot of pictures. And they're on Instagram.
Thing we learned: Miguel Cabrera is much larger than Barcelona's players.
Another thing we learned: except for Gerard Pique.
Barcelona are limping through the season, without Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, relying on depth that might not exist. The roster looks very different, and so do their jerseys. That last bit could change yet again if these leaked Barcelona kits are to be believed.
They are their national team's’ biggest stars and Barcelona’s strongest weapons.

His contract is already worth a lot and will be worth more in the coming years. He makes a ton in endorsements, and is sure to continue that trend. But how much is Neymar's net worth right now?
Neymar's net worth is about $60 million (€52,710,182.40)
Luis Suarez is just doing everything for Lionel Messi these days.
Messi, unable to play due to a knee injury, had Suarez shuttle him to and from the Barcelona training facility for rehab sessions. Suarez, being a good friend, happily obliged.
Now, Luis Suarez has given his good buddy Messi a present: some pajamas that Messi appears to be thrilled about.
It’s easy to predict that, without Lionel Messi, even for just a couple months, the 2015-2016 Barcelona season may be in jeopardy of falling short of expectation, nevermind silverware.
We thought he was in the clear. We really did. The Lionel Messi tax evasion case moved forward Thursday with the news that a request from the prosecutors on the case to drop the charges against Messi had been denied by the judge trying the case, the BBC reported.
