Xavi Hernández

With JamDav on this one. Gap isn't that big. Most of the posters here thought we were the best team in Spain during our mini run and the Real win.

Now we're levels behind Atleti and Madrid.

But I will say, the Summer markets will dictate how far behind Real we will fall. On paper we can't come close to the Mbappe signing.

We are behind when it comes to challenging in Europe. We have no hope of winning CL with current team but Atletico and Madrid could do it.

Winning European cup totally different to winning League or playing well there. Heck, ask Pep..

Ateltico have no chance in CL and certainly not a better chance than Barca next season to go further.

We would never lose to City by one goal. Atletico could have easily taken it overtime and win. Probably deserved too.

Look at our record in Europe. We have been embarrassed for years and now in Europe League.. Even past few years when we had way better team and we still couldn't get it done.

Serghei, delusional is being happy with the results while performing this horribly. When will Xavidembcross relent? When will Torres' infinity leash be shortened? When will Xavi reopen the midfield? When will our best midfielder get playing time? These are very serious questions which continue into next season.

It's inexplainable to me why we stoped playing in the way we player in the xaviball period. Dip in form doesn't explain this. We had nice intricate tiktak passing combined with quick counters and crossing to supplement it. But after the damn break we play like midtable team that can only cross or rely on individual runs. It's as if he's done Setien and succumbed to geezerball, because certain players can't be arsed to train properly.

I don't know what you're talking about. My position on Puig was that he was gonna play more under Xavi, and be a good squad player. He wasn't. That's all. Nothing of the sort of him being our best midfielder or anything similar.

And that was even before Gavi was a thing.

Nah lies.

This season you were claiming Xavi should play Puig same minutes as Gavi/Nico or be unfair to him. Last season was saying Puig was a talent that should be starting ahead of Busquets.

As soon as realised Xavi saw him as just as shite as other coaches it was radio silence.

Were giving off about the 'talent' of Puig when it was being said Laporta was trying to force him into team.

Go dig up some quotes. Probably bullshit. I rated Gavi over Puig as soon as I saw him playing a few games.

There was never any scenario where I rated Puig over Gavi and Pedri.
