STRICT: CHECKOUT THE SET OF RULES SET BY NEW BARCELONA COACH LUIS ENRIQUE

Players must arrive one hour before training begins
Players must not be late for meals with the club
Alcohol is completely prohibited during meals.
Players have to be home by midnight in the two days before a game
Declarations from the players must always be respectful
Players must be responsible when using social media like Twitter, Facebook and Instagram
Players must wear official club clothes on club business
Players are prohibited from taking part in dangerous activities, like alpine sports, using motorbikes and diving
Severe acts of misconduct could result in players being expelled from the club
Tata Martino was renowned for being lax and Enrique hopes his disciplinary scheme will sharpen up a squad of stars who under-performed last season.
The players have already reacted well to the new coach's arrival, working hard in training to impress Enrique.
Now they can impress him in another way - not breaking any of the rules which he has imposed.

As reported by Catalan newspaperSport, players will be fined between €1,000 and €6,000 if they break Enrique's laws.
Fines at the top end of the scale are considered very serious breaches of discipline and will then be further punished by at club executive level.
A severe act of misconduct could see a player expelled from the club.

Guardiola used to conduct checks by calling on a player he suspected was contravening his rules but it is not clear if Enrique will do the same.
Given the Asturian's low tolerance threshold for misbehaviour, it seems likely.
Players have also been informed that they must wear official gear on club trips or events.
This could see an end to the likes of Alex Song and Neymar wearing their own branded clothes before and after games.

Sport claim the first fine has already been paid, with Pique receiving the dubious debut honour, while Barcelona train at St George's Park.
It was the lightest possible sanction, for being late by a few minutes.
The defender was regularly in hot water under Guardiola's disciplinary scheme and it seems like not much has changed in that regard.
One area which has not been revealed yet is Enrique's demands over the players diets.
While Guardiola kept Lionel Messi away from red meat, Martino allowed the Argentine to enjoy it, with some claiming that it detracted from his performances.
