Xavi Hernández has shown deep confidence in the La Masia players. It is no coincidence that he has given 14 of them the opportunity to debut, assigning them significant roles in the squad, beyond being merely testimonial

The FC Barcelona, partly because of his current economic situation that has done him a bit more complicated the work to do big incorporations, has opted by a strategy that has worked well in the past in the City Condal: 'throw' The Masia. In fact, during the period of Xavi Hernández like trainer of the Barcelona picture, has given the opportunity to debut to 14 players from the quarry.

No only this, the egarense further to having trusted promote to these players and do them debut in the first team, also has had the sufficient confidence in them to do them see action in some situations with high degree of complexity, where these have answered favorablemente to this confidence with good performances in spite of his youth.

A recent example was in the commitment of the past Sunday between the Real Betis and the Barça in Benito Villamarín, where the Barcelonan square jumped to the field with Lamine Yamal (16) and Pau Cubarsí (16), two very young footballers. In spite of confronting to a challenge complicated, both played without pressure and showed his cost. Lamine Was one of the main arms in offensive of the picture culé and Cubarsí showed like all a veteran, staging a remarkable defensive solidity in front of a cast with big offensive arguments like the 'verdiblancos'. Of this way, remains in evidence that the bets of the of Terrassa are very based.

The others 'jewels' of The Masia that have debuted in this season

These two players are not the only canteranos that have had a notable paper in this campaign in spite of his short age. We can not forget the irruption of Marc Guiu (18), the one who debuted with so alone 17 years and left a flawless impression, decanting in favour of the Barça the party against the Athletic with a goal in less than a minute in thefield . This shows that it can turn into a clear reference in the offensive appearance.

In this period also has been hit the bet by Fermín López (20), the one who had a successful cession in the Linares and expected his opportunity to show his football in the Barcelona. Further of his stood out debut in the pre-season with a golazo against the Real Madrid, Xavi has offered him his confidence and he has answered with grow. When the one of Terrassa has needed solutions in the centre of the field, López has left clear why is one of his best revulsivos.

Another case to stand out is the one of Héctor Fort (17), the one who has won notoriety like a valid option to future in the right side. It has been summoned in more than an occasion and already has seen action so much in the Champions League as in the Glass of Rey, showing a big potential like one of the a lot of active in which Hernández has bet and an interesting variant in a zone of the field where the Catalan club has had more than a problem in the last time.
