True! Xavi really took over this broken and somewhat disjointed team that looked like they will be fighting not be relegated and gave FC Barcelona a spot in the top four. With the right addition to the team they will be able to compete for trophies.
That's make sense. I think at this moment La Liga is not just about Real Madrid and Barcelona. Now there are Atletico, Sevilla and Real Betis which even though their points are very different from Barca and El Real, but we can assume that apart from Barca and Madrid, Laliga has several teams that can compete with each other with a point difference that is not much different.
Even Sevilla and Betis looked convincing at the start of the season. unfortunately, they do not maintain the consistency of their game. thus losing focus in a long La Liga season.
but I have faith, that next season there will be more surprises for us to see from these teams. Barca and Madrid now have their competitors.
