By the way, the other day even Koeman said that Barcelona lives in the past and the Tiki-Taka strategy is outdated. But as you know, Xavi is not going to give it up.
No, tiki taka is a lot of fun. I really like that, although I understand today football is the end result. I think there is no end to tiki taka, they just need to add variety to dismantle the bus parking and add defenders who are still young so they can kill counter attacks. I think they are still good enough for next season. They are not finished, they have the same chances as other clubs because Xavi came.
I am no longer a fan of tiki taka,  and I agree with Koeman that Barcelona lives in the past. There is no type of football than what Real Madrid and the likes of Liverpool play. Pass the ball forward to your opponent's half and get the goal.
Arsenal was busy with the tiki taka style, before they knew it  they lost both the tiki and the taka.
I know that it's the type of football that Xavi loves and understands, but he should also find alternative.
I even prefer samba football to tiki taka.

I know that the Tika Taka style is a little outdated and right now Football is all about space and pace. One player needs to run beside the defenders and another needs to play through a pass.

The current philosophy of players seems to be, “""why to run at the defenders with the ball? try to show your skills when you can just run beside them without the ball and wait for another person to pass it.”"" and that is really working for a lot of teams right now. I don't know if Xavi is going to adopt that style of football but that seems to be the most effective right now.
