Re: Xavi Hernandez Barcelona head coach
You must be assuming that he been ManU Coach, he would have passed up the opportunity of a vacant Barca Head Coaching position.
I would assume it would jave been his lifelong callling to move positions.

Re: Xavi Hernandez Barcelona head coach
this is going exactly like i thought i would.
Re: Xavi Hernandez Barcelona head coach
See haters come out of the woodwork.
Koeman left Xavi a team of unfit players. Xavi whipped them into shape, rejuvenated them and qualified for CL next season against the odds.
Also, remember Pep's first days as Barça coach?

Yes, lost one game (dead rubber champions league match) between September and February.
Re: Xavi Hernandez Barcelona head coach
With a team full of better players and in much better shape.
Where were you when Barça was spelling "XAVI" to qualify for the CL?
Xavi has already met his goals for the season.
And he did it with games to spare.

In the words of Malcom X:
When the master would be sick, the house Negro identified himself so much with his master he'd say, "What's the matter boss, we sick?" His master's pain was his pain. And it hurt him more for his master to be sick than for him to be sick himself. When the house started burning down, that type of Negro would fight harder to put the master's house out than the master himself would.

Re: Xavi Hernandez Barcelona head coach
Important thing for Barca this season is CL qualification, which is just about assured...
Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.
We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp
