I think the problem here is not only the tactics used by Xavi for his squad. But there were also many mistakes made by players in the back line and midfield. It has always been too easy for opponents to enter Barcelona's defensive area lately. So I feel that the Barcelona players themselves are currently not playing at their maximum performance. Maybe there is some discomfort that has occurred within the club which makes the situation a little awkward between the players or maybe because there are other problems that we don't know about because they may be covered up.

But one thing I see here is that the squad that Barcelona has should be far more than enough to even make things difficult for Real Madrid. But as we can see Barcelona even suffered a big defeat in the Spanish Super Cup Final. Even though in this match Barcelona also had many of the same opportunities, their use of opportunities has also been very poor recently. In this case I can't even blame Xavi. Because blunders also happen quite often in the field nowadays. I think Xavi should rebuild the players' confidence and continue to support them no matter what happens.

Just let him to leave from the club. There are so many great coaches available to be recruited by barcelona. Xavi acts like he was not responsible with the bad result acquired by barcelona.
If he was really saying like that and i would call him as a childish coach. People aware if head coach was fully responsible with the result achieved by the club. I don't like him caused by he was not even willing to learn from the new era.

Xavi is still using the old philosophy owned by barcelona to coaching the current club. This is main reason barcelona is performing so badly caused by xavi is really harsh as a coach. He was not able making barcelona play better after he had been spent a lot of money.
Laporta is not feeling happy with it. Barcelona is always getting problem related to the financial probelm by the club. This is so crazy to see that how there were barcelona fans who believe the club will get la liga this season.


Barcelona has been facing setback in scoring goals. The club can only score few when it was facing a weak club and nothing to be expected from this club. I remind you that barcelona has a very poor defensive as well.
So, what's to expect from this team? i expect nothing from barcelona. The club keeps playing so badly. This is the main problem faced by barcelona caused by it was always bottling any matches.

According to the starting line up when Valencia defeated by Celta Vigo yesterday i can see Valencia at least used 3 reserved players into that match and some of their key players also was replaced in the middle of the game so this proven Valencia didn't give their priority to Copa Del Rey match because Valencia manager Ruben Baraja wasn't targetting the trophy from that competition so i think he will considering the match on Laliga is more important than Copa Del Rey match moreover Valencia is quite good on Laliga currently because just like you said they now can occupy 8th place which this is good position if compared to their position last season

According to their schedule Valencia will gets hard opponent this weekend because as a host they have to fight against Bilbao so i assume Ruben Baraja have to ensure all of Valencia players in the good fitness before this match so that's why Valencia looks not too serious for the match against Celta Vigo yesterday and we all know Bilbao was very strong this season this because from 14 matches in all competitions Bilbao can gets 11 wins and these results also makes them can able to occupy 3rd place and i will looking forward to see the outcomes from this match but i feel like Bilbao will being an the winner of this match

Sorry to hear about your 10 match coupon. I think they were all small matches that should have come and frankly, I was very upset at the time when such coupons were lost from one match or one goal. Know all 9 matches and let your whole coupon go to the last remaining match, obviously these kind of problems happen. When I usually play such coupons, I don't bet very heavily because cup matches are more open to surprise results, and if I do, there are few matches.

Such threats wouldn't be effective in making his team perform any better so I think that was a wrong approach if he wanted to actually help the team get better because there maybe a few amongst them who may want him out and this will be their best opportunity to seeing to that working and playing out as the wanted not minding if it's at the detriment of the teams progress. Barcelona is currently doing poorly , their performance isn't like it was even last season and it's normal the coach is the first person to blame so it will be cowardly for him to just chicken out because the team is currently performing poorly.

If xavi stays a little longer with good tactics and addition of new players who will replace the old, Barcelona can get back on their feet and become even better than they are now.

I lost my ticket of 10 games only because of them and I had them even to qualify and I thought that when they scored to 1-2 most likely they would turn back the result in the second half.It is exactly these type of results that are unpredictable and hurt more than others when you lose you truly get sad.I assume the same to be felt by Valencia fans during such loss especially when they were prepared to win that game and move to another leg.Valencia played better but Celta were more pragmatic as they translated their chances to goals.

There must be mutual trust in the team, otherwise there will be no result. I don’t know if Xavi should tell the players that he can leave the team, I assume that the essence of the conversation was that if they cannot improve the results, then Xavi will be fired, this seems more likely to me. Moreover, there are rumors that Michel could replace Xavi this summer. To be honest, I would not fire Xavi, he knows the team and the players very well, and if there are problems in the defense, then it is worth trying to strengthen it with decent defenders, besides, last season the defense played much better, but the attack should be strengthened.

There is a possibility of player fatigue in the Valencia versus Celta Vigo match. The problem is that the statistics in the League show positive things from Valencia's last five matches, even though this match is the round of 16 of the Copa Del Rey and does not affect the ranking points, it is normal for Valencia to be beaten at home, even though they lost heavily 1-3, there is still a correction in next match so that something similar doesn't happen in the next match, because the next match Valencia will host Bilbao who are in third place in the standings at the moment, so their focus is divided which led to Valencia's defeat against Celta Vigo yesterday.

It might be a sad result for Valencia and an unexpected one for their fans, but these tournaments are played to see the performance of the players and the mistakes made.Teams that don't care usually rotate and try to focus on the league, which they care more about.Celta Vigo, although not doing well in the league, were a team not to be underestimated and Valencia eliminated them by underestimating them.Rafael Benitez's team didn't have much difficulty in reaching the next round because the team that scored the goal won the match.

I actually heard another rumor with Xavi threatening he would resign from Barcelona if indeed the players were not sure of the performance he was doing at this time but indeed things like this are a little difficult when talking about Internal because surely things like this are only based on rumors without any clarity because it is unlikely that a club will leak their Internal problems because this will be considered a disgrace for them.

The current situation is not very good actually for Barcelona but indeed the key is now only one, namely mutual trust between coaches and players because if something like that is not done then it is the same as they dig their own graves deeper because their performance is getting worse over time and indeed this must be emphasized because after all until now Xavi is still very trying to give a different performance but when the situation does not match expectations then this also cannot be forced because after all what is happening for Barcelona at the moment is very difficult to be resolved in the near future by Xavi alone.

Xavi you can leave now, the door is always open for you to leave xavi. Barcelona is not suitable club for you to stay. you can get a new club as soon as you leave from the club. It seems the players were starting to distrust you.
Finally, xavi has been releasing a statement related to the his future in the club.

Xavi will be doing it right by leaving from barcelona as soon as possible. The club has been trying so hard to defend him but since he was not able helping the club to perform better and i think he will leave from there as soon as possible. Barcelona fans are losing respect toward him.
It can be the right time for him to leave from barcelona and seek a new club to join in. I do support him to leave rather than stay for another season. he needs also to get experience by coaching other club as well.

Barcelona gave him a lot of money but he was failed to do that. This is also making the situation even worst for him since barcelona was losing against real madrid in the final. The fans are feeling very disappointed with the performance from barcelona.
That statement from him has proven if xavi is starting to lose his confidence in the club. Glad to see that he will leave from barcelona.

Real and Atletico played a week ago in the Super Cup. In that match Real defeated their opponent 5:3. But I think that Atletico took into account the mistakes of the last game. Simeone's team will be able to impose a fight to their opponent. Atletico had time to rest after the Super Cup semifinal exit, Real on the contrary continued to play. In addition, Atletico is playing in their own stadium. Real Madrid is the favorite in this game. However, I bet on Atletico to win.

Yesterday Xavi confirmed in an interview that if he does not win a major title this season, he will leave at the end of the season. He said that in the first season he had the task of second place, in the second season the La Liga title, in the third season he needed to win a major title. It turns out that he indirectly confirmed what was already in the leaks: any two titles for this season (apparently one major = two minor ones like cups). Considering that the Super Cup has already been lost, the choice (and the odds) are slim, so it is likely that Xavi will be sacked at the end of the season.

According to what I have observed, problems arise in defense. Barcelona has a defensive problem that it cannot prevent. If the opposing team's offensive line is even remotely good, it can easily put them in a difficult situation. In the final they played with Real Madrid in Saudi Arabia, Vini could easily get behind the defense. If they cannot prevent this, the biggest problem awaits them.

Girona advanced to the next round by winning against Rayo with its great performance in the first half. It seems like they are forgetting the bad match they played against Almeria and moving on. They may experience critical losses again in the league. The cup match was very important for this not to happen and they did it. The next thing to do is to wait to see who their opponents in the next round will be.

My thoughts on Valencia's current form are divided. Their 8th-place La Liga finish is promising, but that loss to Celta Vigo was painful. They had the potential to win at home, but the game didnt go their way. Celta's proximity to the relegation zone makes it surprising.

The big picture is hard to ignore. After their Supercopa success, Real Madrid's Copa del Rey derby tomorrow will be exciting. Valencia realizes they play in a league where even the heavyweights struggle. Valencia still hopes to finish in the top 6. They just need that edge, especially in important moments.

It must be girona will not be giving up easily against real madrid. We do know how strong real madrid right now. Real madrid was able humiliating girona with a lot of goals. We shall not even feel worry about that. Im thinking that if real madrid is trying so hard to defend its position right now.
Barcelona and atletico madrid may be leaving from the title race caused by they keep to perform so poorly in la liga. Im not expecting barcelona to compete with girona caused by the club was so weak. It was consistently getting bad result and that's it.

Barcelona is unfavored to win la liga this season. This is the fact. Barcelona lost against girona in the last game which has proven that how weak real madrid is right now.

Many of the players you compiled as very talented and played for Barcelona and Real Madrid respectively made very great effort to make it what it is today. One thing I want to draw your attention to is that these players were signed from many different clubs at very high prices then, hence why they were excellent amidst the competition within and outside the team.

Currently what Barcelona is going through is not because they don't have creative players, they want to use the once they have grown at home while managing their finances. Same for Real Madrid also, else they would have made an instant swoop for Mbappe, although it's still not late, but his fees will have increased when they come back to sign him.

Girona and the other clubs have more than maintained a consistent calibre of players while improving on their tactics and style of play.

Does Xavi think the threat will really change anything from Barcelona performance i believe every club have their shinning moment and at this moment is not for Barcelona and from last season their performance was looking weak am not surprised at what is currently happening now. People that watched how they played last season should be able to know that they got lucky last season. And understand that Xavi is frustrated but still does not mean he should make such statements and they actually conceded too much goals but thats football and they will even find it difficult to catch up  now. The defence is bad and also need to improve but their improvement won't really change anything like that.

Girona will be hosting Sevilla in their next match. Although Sevilla's performance yesterday against Getafe in the Copa De Ray was very impressive, which ended 1:3. I was surprised with the outcome of the game because we all understand that Sevilla is not in good form this season, they are currently in 17 position with 16 points falling back into the relegation zone. Girona won their first match 1:2. Therefore, I still expect Girona to win in their next match against Sevilla. Football predictions are usually difficult to make, but given Girona's strength from the beginning of the season, with their Copa De Ray match win against Rayo Vallecano, I think they will win.

Almeria's last match against Girona was tough, as they didn't give them a single chance to score any goal for the entire ninety minutes. However, that won't be an issue against Real Madrid, i believe Almeria will try to pull off a surprise victory to move out of their current position. Real Madrid, on the other hand, is in good form, they need the three points to take the lead of the table from Girona. The match will be very easy for Real Madrid to win.
