Xavi Hernández

[Semi-Neutral]

Now I have to wonder if Xavi always does that...

 

[Djab]

Dat face!!

Oh boy, why cant Xavi stay forever young..what he has done for Barca is insane..i dont think we will find a player who can fully replace him...always in the background making other players shine...it would be great seeing him as our coach one day

my thoughts exactly

Xavi, who didn't play with Spain yesterday because he had a bit of a cold, is training normally today

 

[KhaledBarca]

I hope he doesn't play against Valladolid, and start vs Man City!

v Valladolid on Saturday

Valdes
Alves Bartra Masche Alba/Adriano
Cesc Busquets Iniesta
Alexis Messi Pedro

v City on Wednesday

Valdes
Alves Pique Masche Alba/Adriano
Xavi Busquets Iniesta
Messi Cesc Neymar

Jesus look at that distribution, neymar really messed it up a lot though . Pedro would've buried those chances

Xavi's exclusive interview with Jamie Carragher

Yes, it's the Daily Mail, but it's a legit interview. Says he would love to manage Barcelona one day.

 

[Pepe Silvia]

The stakes have never been bigger for El Maestro to pull us through the business end of the season. We need him to be healthy and vibrant/fresh now more than ever.

CARRAGHER: Carles Puyol has announced he is retiring at the end of the season and you are entering the final two years of your contract. What does the future hold for you? Do you see yourself managing Barcelona one day?

XAVI: I’d love to, yes. I’d like to remain in football forever. It would always have to be with Barcelona. That’s where my heart and feelings are, just like you with Liverpool. But that (management) is for the future. Right now, I love to play football siempre, siempre (always, always). When you’re a kid playing, you enjoy having the ball, don’t you? All I ever want to do is have the ball at my feet, bossing the game. I’ve been brought up with that style, it’s my football education. I can’t see any other way to play.

What do you think of Xavi as a coach?

What do you think of Xavi as a coach?

Xavi and Puyi together would make a great combo.... One is technical God and the other a charismatic leader, that's a perfect recipe to make a grat coach!

It's clear that he needs to take a bench role next season. As I've said before, he should only play about 40% of matches next season as well as retiring from the national team.

Amen. It's really time.

Xavi, blaming the pitch again.

I love him, but he needs to wake up. It wasn't the pitch, it was the team playing like shit. This kind of posture is what is bringing Barça down. Not acknowledging the problems, and blaming something else.
