Xavi Hernández

[companyofcules]

2. If he has "very very good strikers" and "important" players, Garcia is some God ready to return what are the money needed for?
I mean he is ready to humiliate some brazilian saying he is against world class but then he is crying that he lacks players.
Are we that stupid?

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

Why? If we would let him leave like he first decided then wouldn't have to pay him out last year of his contract. Now that Laporta has actually commited to him for next season and then sacked him a month later Xavi can demand that money. Won't say he actually will but just that it's his right do to so.

Bless your heart.

Also Arteta:

he improved his team every 6 months
Everything else is nonsense talk
He ain't coming to this circus, he is in a great project in the best league in the world

Let's not count the 19-20 season, when he (Arteta) led the team only in the second part of the season.

2020-2021: 8th place in the table. 8th (!!!) place in expected points - 58.

2021-2022: 5 places in the table. 5th place in expected points - 64.

So, over 2.5 years of work (Xavi has currently worked the same amount of time), the progress of Arteta’s team was + 3rd place in the table and + 6 expected points.


Give me the numbers to show that Arteta has made more progress with the team in 2.5 years than Xavi. Your empty chatter doesn't interest me. Show advanced statistics..

 

[companyofcules]

He would not leave, relax. My rants were against his atitudine. Sacking him is impossible and the newspapers are just waging the wars for Laporta who is in the right and probably he is furious.

He offered this excuser the only bet the club was able to make, lots of money from assets to repeat what FR or Guardiola did.
Maybe he has the blame for the dubious transfers too, but that ship has sailed.
The plan failed to produce anything but debt and low revenues if we put the inflation and other factors.

Now it's grinding time for 3 years at least or more reasonable for 7 and Xavi is running out of excuses except attacking Laporta.

"Best league in the world!!!!!!!"

I already quoted the graph for you. Open your eyes and look. He improves the attack (deep entries) every year, and improves the defense (opp. deep entries) EVERY YEAR

You keep citing league position, without realizing you are talking about the most competitive and difficult league in the world
a league where Xavi will be fighting relegation with Arsenal

WAKE UP
honestly, it's because of your deluded lot that we have to suffer the last 2 years

Yes because Xavi is competing in La Liga with an army of elite coaches with lots of money to spend or with old Carlo and Real? If you move half the coaches from EPL in La Liga and gave them half their budgets from England Xavi will be fighting relegation

 

[companyofcules]

La Liga is better at football but EPL has the better coaches and can buy the missing pieces. Imagine having 15 Gironas and Guardiola at Real, Kloop at Bilbao.
Poor Xavi and his old farts

 

[draconifire]

I don't think he is leaving. This is Barca's usual theater.

I think this is more likely now. LOL

 

[Porque]

Almost 24 hours since this story dropped and no official response from the club.

Xavi is cooked. Even if he stays, whole club is in disarray THREE WEEKS after the fake smiles "he stays".

Yeah If the rumors were entirely untrue, one would think the club would have released a statement by now showing support for Xavi.

Give me graphs of these indicators. For both Barcelona and Arsenal. You can compare Arsenal's numbers from the second half of the 19-20 season, the 20-21 season, and the 21-22 season. They improved in expected points by 6.

Money doesn't play football. I don’t think that, for example, the current Athletic Bilbao is worse than Aston Villa.
