Barca have, at last, found a more pragmatic side of themselves under Luis Enrique, one which arguably makes them favourites for this season's competition. Meanwhile, Ibrahimovic can still infuriate, monopolising the ball in big games in particular. He is, however, a man who gets things done. He has also shown a capacity to be a dressing room leader, rather than merely self-serving, in Paris.
His failed transfer—and despite an acceptable season stats-wise in Catalonia it was that, given his price and the speed with which he was dispensed—asks many questions of Barca in their most glorious period. Fans will hope the days of frivolous and ill-thought-out signings and sales are over, but they might even afford themselves a thought of what might have been when Ibrahimovic takes the field.

Dmytro Chygrynskiy was a mistake from the beginning when he signed with FC Barcelona. According to Sports Illustrated , Chygrynskiy will be remembered as an out of place and position player.
Chygrynskiy appeared to be clumsy and slow when it came to the ball. He also played superficially during the season. Pep Guardiola was willing to assume responsibility for his signing. Chygrynskiy just could not fit in with FC Barcelona. The attempt to discuss those who deserved to leave FC Barcelona was interesting. The compilation in this slideshow is a personal opinion.
I am aware that there may be other opinions about who deserved to leave. Here are 10 players who decided to leave FC Barcelona so that they could once again rediscover their ability to thrive. While he did win eight trophies with Barcelona, including two Primera Ligas and the Champions League, he was chafing under the restrictions of his new role, often openly arguing with Messi while on the pitch.
Zlatan was initially the focal point of the Barca attack, with Messi stationed out wide. Consigned to the bench, the Swede could only watch, fuming, as Barcelona tumbled out of the Champions League on away goals in that famous win in orchestrated by Jose Mourinho and Inter Milan, who would go on to win the competition.
After 22 goals in 46 games, Zlatan left Barcelona to enjoy highly successful spells at AC Milan, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United followed, where he scored a combined times in matches.
Although the Brazilian was ageing at the time, his supreme skills should have done Messi a world of good, and most fans were salivating to see their partnership.
Unfortunately, it was one that was cut short with little room for sentiment. With Xavi and Iniesta coming of age, the individual powers of Deco and Ronaldinho were determined by Pep Guardiola to be out of sync with the new Barcelona.
Ronaldinho was shipped off to a declining AC Milan, where he could never capture the heady heights of his inimitable jogo bonito skills, winning a single Serie A title before stints in his native Brazil with Flamengo, Atletico Mineiro and Fluminense, in addition to two seasons with Queretaro in Mexico.
Sanchez combined South American flair with Native American determination: a characteristic seen in all Chileans, and one that has seen him push himself to the very limits of his physical and mental endurance.
