5 Factors aiding Barcelona's treble push this season

#4 Balanced midfield

The midfield has also been brilliant

The departure of Xavi Hernandez hurt Barca for a couple of years while Andres Iniesta's heartfelt farewell last season also posed huge threats to the future of the club's midfield.

However, the Blaugrana have been able to deal with these departures efficiently - thanks in no small part to the rise of Brazilian prodigy Arthur Melo - as well as the rejuvenation of midfield pair, Sergio Busquets and Ivan Rakitic.

Utilizing these three players, Barca have been able to dominate games with ease this season, with their combination of decent passes reminding us of the old days under Pep Guardiola.

Moreover, Arturo Vidal has also added a new dimension to the Catalans in the center of the park, with his physicality and aggressiveness helping the club immensely, especially in the Champions League where Barca's priority lies as they move on with their treble ambitions.
