Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 61459, member: 636"] Barcelona faces a goalkeeper crisis after Juan Garcia suffered a serious knee injury. Polish veteran Wojciech Szczęsny must abandon his backup role and return as the primary shot-stopper. The 35-year-old ended his retirement to join the Catalan club and performed well during his previous stint. Spanish publication AS questions whether Szczęsny can regain his top form. The experienced keeper impressed coaching staff and supporters last season with solid performances between the posts. His strong displays earned him a two-year contract extension from Barcelona management. Szczęsny's long absence from regular action raises doubts about his readiness for the starting position. The former Arsenal and Juventus goalkeeper must prove he can handle the pressure of being Barcelona's number one again. [/QUOTE]
