Barcelona have responded to their run of just one win in four matches, failing to beat to either Real Madrid or Inter. Their two victories against Villarreal and Athletic Club had an aggregate score of 7-0 and it has eased fears around Camp Nou.
It has also eased the pressure on manager Xavi Hernandez. The Catalan manager had not faced any serious questions over his management until this October and it was very much he that was receiving the heat during their poor run of form.
However Franck Kessie wanted to pay tribute to his coach for the response. Mundo Deportivo carried his post-match comments.
“After a difficult week the team were affected by the end of it, but [we] showed character and the will to do things well”.
“If we have come back like this, then it is also thanks to Xavi and the staff, who have known how to find the solution, and restore morale and motivation to the team”.
It is a promising sign for Xavi that his less-used players are still on board with his ideas and the direction of the team.
One of the traits that has characterised Real Madrid’s success over the year has been Carlo Ancelotti’s ability to keep the dressing happy and moving in the same direction. If Xavi can manage that, Barcelona will be much more of a force.

what nonsense are you talking about!!! you want him to be like Lewa?
no he's right,first he missed some easy goals,thats fine he's not a striker but he couldn't even control the ball most of the times and he lost possession many times,he literally needs a lot of time to adopt to Barca midfield

this is how Barca will be looking at the champions league if Xavi Hernandez doesn't start rotating things on the pitch. we need two or three formations for a match so when predicted we can do something different. together we stand but divided and we fall. Xavi is dividing the team with his racism. well, Barca forever 💞

It wasn't unexpected actually. He still thinks la Masia is like it was in his time.

One bad run and the season looks almost over. Only hope will be fighting for La Liga but again Madrid looks like they are going to be invincible this season. Hoping for a great fight from our team till the end. Força Barça 💙❤️

Xavi should rest Gavi to avoid any problems against Bayern. That kid shouldn't be injured.
