Bartomeu really did kill the barca dna by signing players that didnt fit the system during madrids 3 peat. In addition as good as rackitic was, he could never touch xavi’s boots, this forced iniesta to perform xavis role and messi in turn performed iniestas role and even scored a shit ton, however, when it came to KOs against top opposition, all they had to do was shut messi out and that was it, suarez’s poor form in ucl didnt help either.
