By the help of Xavi, Barcelona have entered a new era absolutely. They are reaching a much higher level than they were in the beginning of the season. And this process should be really fun to watch for their fans as well. Barcelona are finally bringing their old strength back again slowly. And as of next season, I'm hoping to see a great team that are fighting for the La Liga championship. And they can do great things in the Champions League too. It has been many years since they last won the Champions League title.
Barcelona players are getting more and more confident every week. Especially the incredible win in the El Clasico must be very helpful for them to focus on their coming matches completely to win each one of them. I just love the way how they started to perform this great and have maintained it for a long time. I think that they will keep this performance until the end of the season and finish the season at the second spot also. And they will give a big signal for next season of the league by doing this.
When teams are in form, confidence is naturally developed; most players will be confident in themselves because they know what their entire squad is capable of. In the case of Barcelona, manager Xavi has constructed a very competent and competitive team capable of creating fear in the minds of opponents. Barcelona's recent performance has greatly impressed me. Madrid are very much ahead of the others in the league table, but this is a game they would want to win, as it is a chance to immediately bounce back from a disgraceful loss suffered at the hands of Barcelona and they can also use the game to show that they can secure wins even without Karim Benzema, something they haven't convincingly done this season. Hopefully vinicius junior or miraculously Eden Hazard can step in and stamp their feet on the team. Madrid will want to win the league as fast as possible and now focus solely on the champions league, depending on how the last-16 tie with Chelsea goes.
Real Madrid are very lucky that Barcelona gave Ronald koeman lot of chance before they sack him and bring xavi Hernandez if not they would have been in a problem because with the form of Barcelona right now they would have won the Spanish League,but I won't underestimate Real Madrid because Barcelona won them four on reply goals I still consider them a good team and they have what it takes to overcome Chelsea In the champions League and go to the semis but they have to improved and stop depending solely on Karim benzema.

When Xavi was brought newly as Barcelona coach at earlier time so many people were saying many things about him because then Barcelona was still performing bad, I understand that he can't start transforming the team immediately and today he has done a great work in Barcelona by bringing the team back like the way the team used to be, Barcelona will become more tougher.
I think it's natural to have doubts for Xavi when he was first recruited as Barcelona coach, and that's because Xavi is considered to be quite young and also inexperienced. But I'm just optimistic about all the management decisions and support their efforts to get Xavi as a replacement for Koeman. What I thought at the time was, Xavi needed to adapt to his players and it's working now.Xavi has sacrificed 2 important competitions since taking charge of Barcelona where he failed to reach the last 16 of the Champions League and also the Copa Del Rey. Currently he is only able to keep his team through to the quarter-finals of the Europa League but it will still be difficult to win La Liga because Real Madrid has won quite a lot of points. As a fan, I expect something bigger next season but Barcelona still has to focus on the Europa League and maintain their form in the league.
^ When Xavi was appointed as the new coach of Barcelona, people thought that he didn't have much coaching experience prior to that.
people of the whole world obviously and sure of what he will be capable of with the Barcelona squad.
But he has certainly changed things around Barcelona and the team is also getting good results right now. people are also giving credit to Xavi for this exceptional comeback of Barcelona.
Barcelona has already entered the top 3 in La Liga. and now if they can win the Europa League title it will be a hell of a comeback story.
Madrid are very much ahead of the others in the league table, but this is a game they would want to win, as it is a chance to immediately bounce back from a disgraceful loss suffered at the hands of Barcelona and they can also use the game to show that they can secure wins even without Karim Benzema, something they haven't convincingly done this season.

-snip- the big win in El Clasico made the mentality of Barcelona players increases.
Barcelona players should be very confident and enthusiastic to play in the next matches. Winning the El Clasico with big scores means they win prestige, which proves the Barcelona team is much stronger right now. Now, every Barcelona player must feel that Barcelona has returned to be a winning team again, they have the ability to beat any team both in La Liga or in international competition.The presence of several new players in the Barcelona squad is able to increase goal productivity for the Blaugrana team.
3 new players who improve the goal productivity in Barcelona are Aubameyang, F Torres, and A Traore. These players adapt very well and they instantly can play solidly in Barcelona attacking line. They deserve to get a high appreciation for the achievement so far.
Xavi has a much better understanding than Koeman. Age difference - generation difference can be a cause of this. But I think Koeman is just too bad as a coach. He failed at all clubs, nobody wanted him. But players often make that mistake. Good players often think that they are automatically a good trainer. It's a good thing Xavi is now at the helm here, otherwise Koeman would have made an even bigger mess of it. Today's football from Barcelona is reminiscent of how Xavi played with his team in 2010 somewhere.
The presence of Xavi is indeed a lucky dice for El Clasico and can end Barcelona's bad luck with Koeman. Koeman could not develop the potential of every young Barca player so it seemed that Barcelona failed to choose young players. In fact, in Xavi's eyes, the new seeds will be very easy to direct and control by giving them a pleasant playing field. This is evident when Barcelona is now under Xavi control which shows that it turns out that Koeman has failed to develop the potential of every player. Barcelona present form is the best in the Spanish league. Xavi's formation and strategy change the whole team. He has experience when it comes to coaching because he was once a player. The young catalans are currently unbeaten in their last 12 games across all competitions. If they continue on the long-run with unbeaten records, they would likely beat real Madrid to the trophy. Their only challenge was the El Classico, which they delivered and Neil their opponent, real Madrid. They won madrid 4 goals to Neil, that was Real Madrid worst defeat this season.
Barcelona is going to be not stoppable in next season again because suddenly they have new energy and motivation after the worst period of this season and Xavi is having the best formation and strategy which working for them ultimately now they are late in this season otherwise surely they are going to challenge Real Madrid title but still know their announcement is great for next season and for current Europa Cup because they are looking for something, and currently it's possible to have this.Now, Xavi is working on some long term settlements, most chances they will complete this in very early part of next season, and they will start next season like they have done one decade ago and having big threat for all clubs in Spanish League.
The change of coach at the beginning of November 2021 brought blessings to Barcelona, Barcelona performance continued to improve during Xavi's time as coach. A big 4-0 win over Real Madrid made Xavi men even more confident when they played against Sevilla in jornada 30. Sevilla must be careful with Barcelona increasing performance, especially since Barcelona are unbeaten in the last 12 match. Barcelona will be victorious again, because Barcelona acted as the host in this match.
Barcelona players learn a way to play even from a young age, and some of the players they got may not be from Barcelona youth team, but the team has enough to make it work. They have pique, busquets, pedro, traore, and some others all of which knew the style. Koeman doesn't play that way and this brought in some problems, he didn't even have a proper style to talk about.Xavi on the other hand grew up with it, made a ton of money and got a lot of achievements with it, and even managed it for like 2 years as well. He just told the players to do that, what they grew up with and this of course in return brought in a lot of success.

To be honest, I would have expected a more competitive season this year. But Real Madrid have just dominated the season so far. And this helped them get far away from the other teams in the standings. And most probably, they are going to reach the title without too much problem. Sevilla seemed to be very promising for a long time but they gave up very early. If Barcelona were this much strong much time before, we would have witnessed a huge rivalry between Real Madrid and Barcelona.
At least Barcelona is preparing for next season. Even though this is a La Liga season that is dominated by Real Madrid. We are really looking forward to next season when the formation between Real Madrid and Barcelona will change drastically. especially Barcelona which is still in the stage of reforming which Xavi is trying to implement. 
Barcelona are playing the kind of football we saw in 2009 under Pep Guardiola, dominating possession, passing confidently. The El Classico scores could have been worse for Real Madrid...could have easily been seven goals. Real Madrid defense was clueless on what to do. It was a very poor Madrid against a well prepared Barcelona

It's a pity that there is still a lot of time before the next round and there won't be any new "food" for conversation yet.
Waiting until April 4th is a long time, while the ingredients to eat will be swirling around in the same place. I know what you mean, LOL. However, there is no need to worry, such as starting to see some information or rumors circulating about clubs in La Liga who are preparing new names that will be targeted as strength enhancers, especially those from Barcelona.Last league match was played on 20th March, and now we have next round from 2nd April which is the worst thing as things are heating up, and they have this break really bore time, but we can't do anything just wait with patience and then start again for your addiction and love with this great game of soccer. I am feeling now Barcelona is not have any desired player for next season, and Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid both are going to strength their squads with some big names in soccer.
It's always annoying when the competition is shut down, but we can only understand that. It is otherwise impossible for players, you are stuck with the planning and playing schedule of international matches. They are working hard to move it all around. And since the Nations League was added, they had to squeeze the competition even more. Players in England already have few days and weeks off in the current situation. Players in Russia will have it quieter, they are no longer welcome anywhere.

I have no words to say about this. Barcelona just erased Real Madrid in front of their supporters yesterday. They obliterated Real Madrid by a 4-0 result and this was a lot to sink in for Real Madrid. I wonder if they will come back stronger after having a very poor result like this. They should be thankful that they are still in a safe place in the standings. But for Barcelona, I think that they are surely going to leave Sevilla behind before the end of the season. Sevilla have started a really bad form and this will cost them their second position.
I would not have believed the rapid rebirth of Barcelona. A few weeks ago, the question was whether they could even qualify for the Europe League, so badly did they play in parts and now they sweep Real 4-0 from the field. Especially Aubameyang and Dembele are the new important axis of the game that play perfectly together.
Didn't it start to happen so fast? I mean that I was waiting for this to happen by the beginning of next season actually. But here we are and we see that they have already started doing very nice things in the La Liga. Beating the leader up by an embarrassing score must be seen as a proof for it. If the point gap was much less than now, Barcelona would have even had a big chance for the title too. But it shouldn't be a problem for them. Because they are surely going to start a new era as of next season.
When I go to this thread, I get the impression that I moved to Catalonia

Barcelona is mentioned more than any other club on every page. Quite interesting given that Real will be the champion and three Spanish clubs continue their performance in the Champions League, but not Barcelona.

The food is that you voted Real Madrid and not Barcelona https://i.ibb.co/S6GGYyM/lol1.png

BTW did you try searching with the term "Barca" too?
Back to the vote, I hesitated at the beginning between Barcelona and Real Madrid but decided that Barca will win it this season so I voted for them. Don't want to mention the embarrassment when you see them somewhere near the 15th spot! But now things improved a lot and there is a chance maybe I could win that vote?
