BarcaFOREVER

It's not time to play defense and attack on Fans because it's Xavi.

I barely see comments like this when we have past professional coaches who were fired.

Xavi is a club legend don't be blind he have some learning to do..

I believe we will still be playing the UCL if xavi was experience enough..


Read Gattuso statement again he football sense is top-notch. But not his experience level!!!

Offset Dollarbill$,
I endorse your comment. 💯
Can you guess who said this quote recently? 

Take a look: 

"If it was another coach at Barcelona now, dealing with what is happening, there would be a bigger volcano than there is. The volcano would have erupted. But as it is Xavi, it's fine."

Thierry Henry. Yes, you read it right. Our own Henry, and he's not the only one making critical comments. 

If Henry can put this out there, it Tells me what I need to know. 
Scrutiny of the game is the most important feature of support for the club. 
Out here on the platform, the converse is the case.

Offset Dollarbill$, your speech is well noted but remember we never stood a chance to qualify for the UCL last season before this so called “InExperienced” Xavi took over from the Experienced Koeman and changed our fortune.

We probably would be playing in the conference league this season if not for him.

Please try to accord some respect and don’t let your emotions get the better part of you. We were never going to win the UCL this season and we stand a better chance to compete in the Europa League

I hope some keyboard coaches and tacticians hear this from an ex professional footballer and active coach.

Use the mic Gsttuso so they hear at the back of the room 🎤

Nekiamo 

Appreciate...? For where, na God way save  us but with that kind of performances if we didn’t wake up we will all regret this season again... we’ve lost fucus hunger, nd motivation we lack intensity guy wake up oo....
