Please stop there, tell me when was the last time Barcelona didn't qualify for the Champions League?
As far as I know and remember, Barcelona have qualified for the Champions League every season for the last 10 seasons, but they may not have made it to the last 16 last season.

I certainly agree that Xavi wants to bring Barcelona back to the peak of its glory in the Champions League by winning titles. But anyway, it must be difficult even though Barcelona's form so far has been better under Xavi. It doesn't matter how well Barcelona performed last season in La Liga, but the Champions League is very different.
