Absolute legend! It has been a pleasure to watch the maestro at work!

Unbelievable player. If I could pick one player to retire at Barca, It would be him. I would not mind Leo playing for Rosario at 35 or Iniesta for Albacete at the end of his career.
But to see Xavi retire in blaugrana would make me shed tears of joy.

This man is a unique piece of art ! You never get tired of seeing him perform on the pitch !I hope he'll join the coaching staff of Barca once he's retired .

Absolute legend. Hopefully he stays for another season So we could see him play for Barca more and more and then he can retire in 2016 at Barca.

Should have won it in 2009 or 2010.

Should have won it in 2009 or 2010.

Apparently he didn't care in the slightest that he didn't win. I read that he cared more about the weather as he was going to go mushroom picking
