Xavi: ?We have to play better, be more patient and have more control. It has been difficult for us to see the free man, that neatness that we ask for so much.?

Xavi: ?I am NOT satisfied with the way we played today.? #fcblive

Xavi: ?We missed important players like Busquets, Piqu? and Pedri. They are players who make a difference. When they?re not there it?s noticeable.? #fcblive

Xavi's takeaway from today is that we cannot play without Busquets's magical presence at DM, at all :busquets:

Predicted it... he would think missed Busquets when in reality Barca with Busquets lost at home three games in a row v smaller sides for first time in decades only few games ago.

He is deluded.

Barca are becoming a caricature of themselves and Xavi is doubling down on it.

He is correct, and he is speaking pretty well. But it is pretty strange complaining about the lack of a free man whilst doing all he can not to play Puig, instead playing four attackers who are notoriously bad in their decisions and with a very high error percentage.

No he isnt correct.

With Busi at DM they lost three of last four home games and for first time in decades lost three games at home..and against smaller sides.

Yet after 3-1 win when FDJ was best player on park he still harps on about Busquets.

Xavi is deluded.

"So Frenkie, you see you are starting in defensive midfield? WRONG! when we have the ball you will drop back to central defence. And you Alves and Alba, you will become a double pivot."

...

"Gavi, run around alot. But also run alot more near the strikers"

...

"Oh and as always, get the ball to Dembele and hope he can cross it accurately"

...

"Lastly Ferran, do that working hard facial expression, if you can maintain that face, I will be happy with you"

So embarrassing in its truth. God help us.

We beat Celta 3-1, with FDJ doing his part and playing well as DM and there are some good takeaways from the game despite Araujo's scary head collision

Poor FDJ, can't even get an ounce of praise because our manager is too busy having his head so far up Busi's fucking asshole. The funny thing is he's not wrong that we are Missing Pedri, but he's wrong if he thinks Busi is a bigger loss. Because Pedri the 19-year-old Kid is the Midfield, he's the guy that propped that shit up once he came back from injury and we played our best football with him there and he bailed us out with some goals as well.

This current Busi isn't even good enough to shine Pedri's boots right now.

I find it extraordinary that the midfield brain of our greatest team can only conjure up this dross. Without Pedri he seems clueless. It's pass to winger who crosses. Rinse and repeat.

To be fair now with top 4 is secured, Xavi will try to do some experiments. He is right that the team miss Pedri, Busi, Pique. But what is not right is he has not yet thought of Busi's replacement.

Can't replace the irreplaceable one. Better renew him until 2030 soon!

Blaming players and throwing arms in air on sidelines every five minutes.

Needs to take a look at himself and those awful tactics or things will go south very quickly next season with half empty stadium.

Puig wasn't good. But when the midfield played closer together in the second half we were better. And I'm talking of before the sending off.

You can't replace Busi like for like, but we could atleast be a little more adaptable. Has Xavi forgot that he won his first treble with Yaya Toure having more minutes than Busquets. Did the two play the same?
