Xavi Hernández

[raskolnikov]

There are no "easy" games (especially when Xavi isn't playing)

Relatively easy then.

 

[Yasaman]

Yeah Xavi should always play rm, he is still clearly better than Cesc and Thiago.
Just bench him in easy games more often to save him for tougher ones.

Exactly. . . .

dat pass to Alves

it seems that Tito doesn't have the same courage as Pep did when he benched him a lot last season. What's worse is that we all know the problem with his knee, but he continues to play almost as much as Messi despite the fact that we have Thiago&Cesc+Villa&Alexis for the league games. I hope he will spend more time on the bench from now on, although I doubt it.

Dissapointing to see that he continues to play so much..and he will probably do the same with Spain also. If he isn't benched against Getafe then all I can do is pray that he won't be exhausted when the CL returns.

He's obviously just saving himself for the big games to activate "beast mode". He's not trying so far obviously. Hurr durr.

Official: Xavi is out for Spain's friendly against Uruguay with thigh muscle discomfort after tests by Spain's medical staff [barcastuff]


He really shouldn't have played tonight (or at least not the whole 90 min) ..hope it's nothing serious.

 

[loozy]

Not surprised, to be honest; he has been playing very much this season.

 

[Semi-Neutral]

That's good, actually, he'll finally be able to grab some well-deserved rest.

In the last 10-15 minutes, it was the old Xavi who was trying to make assists instead of initializing an attack At one point he even went on the RW position himself

Xavi is injured, will be out for at least 15 days. That's what happens when you play too much. Instead of playing all the midfielders at once, rotate them, ffs!

That's good if you look at it in the right perspective, which is that he will get some well deserved rest and hopefully come back stronger and better than before.

Atleast he'll get some rest... I hope they ease him back
