While Barcelona have battled as of late, the most recent 25 years or so have been the best in the club's set of experiences - and they've been driven by a few phenomenal players in that time.
The Catalan goliaths have partaken in an ordinary stream of prizes and a phenomenal football for sure. Some case that the 2009-12 group, oversaw by Pep Guardiola, is the absolute best ever.
Each extraordinary group needs extraordinary pioneers and Barca have been honored in such manner as a portion of the main players of their age have worn the armband at the Camp Nou.
We've positioned the eight commanders of Barcelona starting around 1997 from most exceedingly terrible to best.
8. Sergi Barjuan
Barjuan, at present mentor of Barcelona B, was commander for the 2001-02 season however just showed up in all contests.
The right-back had been at the Camp Nou for very nearly 10 years when he was given the armband however his administration couldn't save Barca from a disheartening fourth spot finish in La Liga and rout to Real Madrid in the Champions League semis.
Louis van Gaal offered Barjuan to Atletico in the mid year of 2002 and delegated Luis Enrique as commander in his place.
He was a strong master, yet Barjuan doesn't actually contrast with different names on this rundown.
7. Sergio Busquets
Extraordinary player, and one of the main defenders of football's dull expressions, however Busquets has actually captained Barcelona since the previous summer and keeping in mind that they mobilized to complete a decent second spot in 2021-22, it was anything but a memorable season.
He might climb the rundown on the off chance that things work on under Xavi's administration in any case, for the time being, the midfielder scarcely warrants a higher putting than this.
6. Luis Enrique
Barcelona in the mid 2000s weren't the juggernaut they'd before long turn into.
Genuine Madrid were the association's most glamourous group, Rafa Benitez was making all the difference at Valencia, and northern Spain was all around addressed in Europe by Celta Vigo, Deportivo La Coruna and Real Sociedad.
Also, Barca began the 2002-03 season amazingly, ending up drifting over the transfer zone before Van Gaal was sacked in January.
In this specific circumstance, it was difficult for Enrique to match the progress of his replacements. Yet, the midfielder, who as director drove Barca to the Champions League prize in 2015, supervised a recuperation in 2003 and was in charge during the undeveloped Rijkaard/Ronaldinho days the accompanying season.
Enrique resigned in the late spring of 2004 and is recalled affectionately at the Camp Nou.5. Pep Guardiola
Barcelona's best administrator was likewise one of their best at any point skippers.
A sturdy of the club's midfield all through the 1990s, Guardiola was immediately delegated as the club's new chief in 1997 by Van Gaal, supplanting the active Gica Popescu.
He remained skipper for the following four seasons, lifting the La Liga title in 1999 and having a significant effect from the focal point of the recreation area.
Yet, Barca were trophyless during Guardiola's last two seasons as captain and he was offered to Brescia in the mid year of 2001.
Thus, shockingly, we can't exactly rank Pep any higher than this.
4. Lionel Messi
Indeed, he's splendid. Indeed, he's the most notable figure in Barcelona's set of experiences. Indeed, it's as yet bizarre to see him wearing a PSG shirt.
Be that as it may, as the club's solitary unfamiliar commander, Messi managed a few pretty contemptible acquiescence in the Champions League - notice Anfield or Bayern Munich to see any Barca fan turn out in hives.
Messi actually drove the side to the La Liga title in 2019 and won the Copa del Rey in his last season in Spain. Also, it's significant his propelling years and the club's downfall while the Argentina worldwide wore the armband.
He was hamstrung by situation, yet Messi the chief wasn't exactly at the level as Messi the player.3. Andres Iniesta
Iniesta is ostensibly one of the best midfielders ever, yet the vast majority of his prosperity at club level preceded he took the skipper's armband in 2015.
Taking over from Xavi, who left the club toward the finish of the past season, the World Cup champ drove La Blaugrana to two La Liga titles and three Copa Del Rey wins.
In his last season, the 2017-18 mission, Barca won La Liga by an incredible 14 focuses and who could fail to remember his exhibition in El Clasico two years beforehand?
Iniesta scored one objective and made one more in a 4-0 triumph over Real Madrid and he turned out to be just the third Barca player to get a thunderous applause at the Bernabeu.
Iniesta left for Vissel Kobe in 2018 subsequent to showing up for Barcelona.
2. Xavi
The unbelievable midfielder just drove Barca for a solitary season, yet what a season it was.
Led by the amazing MSN forward line, Barcelona cleared all before them in the 2014-15 mission and won the second high pitch in their set of experiences.
Xavi was reaching the finish of his vocation right now, and frequently kept out of Luis Enrique's XI by Ivan Rakitic, leaving for Qatar after the Champions League last triumph over Juventus. In any case, in spite of not wearing the armband previously, he'd continuously gone about as an on-field pioneer.
Be that as it may, even his single season as commander is sufficient to land him second spot here. Like Guardiola before him, a firm safeguard of Barcelona's Cruyffist values and playing style - we're not shocked he's made a promising beginning to life in the burrow.
