Xavi Hernández

[serghei]

Irrelevant to point made.....

Do better and support the team.

Stop telling us how little the league title means as the elite Real just didnt try as hard etc.

Bla bla... Madrid were CL and La Liga winners last season when we beat them to the title. A better team for anyone not blinded by hate towards Xavi.

You can either be a hater or a delusional person. Not possible to be so ignorant towards real events otherwise.

Haha aye and the argument of Barca being up there to match them as favs in league was AFTER they won that league and CL.

Some were wrong...

Some however did not believe in the players or Xavi and had them as years away from being able to win and worse than Spurs/Man Utd.

But 'bla bla' support the team.

Xavi 'hater' and 'team hater' claimed they had no chance.

Delusional.

Have to make up shit about others being 'blinded by hate of Xavi' when believed Barca could win with him and team.

Usual.

Too bad you can take a loss in a dignified manner. You're not a bad poster at all but this one bad ingredient spoils the whole soup in your case.

Still don't understand why so many Barca fans here hate Xavi so much. Doesn't make any sense.

Ok, you had doubts he can get the job done. Most of you agreed the objective was to challenge for the title. And we smashed it last season, did way more than just that. What more do you want at this stage? Absolute madness.

 

[JamDav1982]

Fake news.

I believed that Xavi/Barca were slight favs for league and not 'years behind Real Madrid and worse than Spurs/Man Utd'.

The 'loss' is on the ones who did not believe Xavi/players were capable.

Simple.

Still dont understand why some play down Barcas/Xavi winning league title and gush for Real so much and trip over themselves to make out Real didnt try for that league title Barca won.

Some hate Xavi blindly. Some use mental gymnstics to 'support' him and some argue for and against decisions when see fit.

Irony is you crowing above about how the team is fighting against all odds and how improbable it is for them to win LaLiga, how impossible it is to compete in CL...

Whilst others told you different and that winning league was entirely possible at the time.

Even after the team winning the league you are still downplaying expectations and telling people that league titles are impossible against the mighty Madrid whilst the club prove you wrong.

Imagine you went to Xavi and said, man, you guys are doing your best, but sorry, Madrid are just too good and you probably wont ever be able to win a league against them, theyre just so good, they keep beating Liverpool!

You would get laughed at.

 

[serghei]

What you think I'm saying, and what I am actually saying are two different things. And I don't care to explain it to you anymore.

 

[JamDav1982]

Nah what you clearly said is dont think Xavi/Barca can win v Real for years are worse than Spurs/Man Utd.

Wrong and didnt believe in Xavi and the lads were capable to win.

What you try to now say you said and actually said are two different things.

Even few months back... Barca won league as Real not as motivated, too many young players not at correct age, CBs are injury prone and not as good as Reals, Gundo is over rated and made to look good by City year away from Saudi, Barca have too many inexperienced players, folk over rating Lamal, Barca not better than Real until go deep in CL etc.

'Explain'

Enjoy the team fighting against all odds and delivering precious silverware.

Bunch of moaners... you want to moan about something real, moan about us not being to afford class players due to the shit Bartomeu and his crooks did.

If we had 150m or so to spend last summer like all other big teams Barca could even be challenging for CL title.

It's the same in politics. Everyone that tries to do something good is pulled back by hordes of ... that can't stand but throw shit at everything non-stop.

'Fighting against all odds' 'can't afford class players' 'don't have 150m to spend'

All your posts are laced with pessimism and downplaying what the club can do and sneaking in excuses about having poor players or not being able to spend enough when the squad is outstanding (credit of Laporta).

Coming from the man who says that nobody can be considered great unless they prove it in Europe now discarding Europe as a relevant factor and saying can't expect anything more than a league title.

However you don't rate players like Pedri or Ter Stegen who were vital to that title because 'don't prove it in Europe'.

Just double standards on everything really.

Xavi has done a good job so far and will be rated amongst best coaches if he wins back to back leagues and shows progress in Europe.

What a pity that two of the best brains in the forum are wasting their internet traffic, their lives and the phosphors on the planet to prove who is right. Something that does not help anyone and does not match the principle of fandom and enjoyment of football. Let it go guys.

The fact that at a club like Barca, football matters as well and not only titles is something that is completely absent from Serghei's clownish argumentation.
And that is not by accident. He sneakily ommits that from the discussion to barricade behind Xavi's 'titles', that is La Liga last season. Against a coach that is notorious for not being able to clinch league titles.
And all that to push a shitty apologist agenda

Now, let's write this one more time:
Give Araujo, Kounde, Pedri, Gundo, Felix, Balde, Cancelo, Lamine, etc to Roberto Di Zerbi, just to name one (there are tons).
What do you think happens? Do we have to suffer the shitshows we do week in week out?
Or do we enjoy beautiful free flowing football in 2 months, given that the guy is doing it in the most competitive league in the world with the likes of Dunk Gross Veltman and freaking Danny Welbeck?
Rhetorical questions of course

Didn't you say we should go for ten haag?
Now you want de zerbi after ten haag flopped?

Behave yourself and stop pretending you are a football pundit.

Apologize when league title is won.

To your daddy, Xavi Hernandez

I wanted all the top coaches that play attacking football, and had a proven track record of being able to do that.
Guess what? the master of Xavi-cross ball is not one of them

If De Zerbi had all those players they would all be on the bench every other week due to arguably the most nonsensical rotation policy in the history of football management.

No one seems to be able to address this elephant in the room about him.
They played a blinder at Utd and he makes 9 changes and go get slapped at home to AEK. Evan Ferguson bangs in a hat trick and then eats the bench next game to make way for the mighty Danny Welbeck.

Mitoma gets rotated and they end up losing at HT to Bournemouth. Then brings him on to save the game, but why was he on the bench in the first place? Could literally go on for pages and pages.

If De Zerbi comes here it will take the forum all of a maximum of 3 months to be constantly moaning about his ridiculous and costly rotations.

And yes, Ten Haag is doing a terrible job also.

One of the most delusional posts I have ever read. In my life!
Ten haag is a flop!

But I will let you cook and wait for haters to duck and dodge and tell us why xavi is doing a terrible job after back to back league titles.
