Talking about the bad results that Barcelona has had this season is endless and since Ter Stegen suffered a back injury at the start of last season, it has made Barcelona's goal easier to break down. But of course it wasn't entirely Inaki Pena's fault, but Barcelona's defense was also questionable because it was so weak that the opposing players were very free to kick towards the goal. Weak interceptions and blocks made by defensive players meant that the goalkeeper was also unable to save his goal from being conceded.

I think we already know that since the last time they played against Girona in December last year, the Supercopa final against Real Madrid, against Bilbao in the CDR quarterfinals, until most recently against Villarreal, Barcelona conceded easily and the number of goals was more than 3 goals. This increasingly reflects that they will not be able to win any titles this season. I am very sad to see Barcelona's current performance and again the main responsibility lies with Xavi. After the match against Villarreal, we all know the news circulating that Xavi will leave at the end of the season. Another sad news but actually quite good for Barcelona's future development. However, Xavi is a club legend and also a coach who was quite instrumental for Barcelona last season.

Many people are blaming Xavi for Barcelona's poor performance, but in all honesty, I don't think the coach is at fault because the players are the ones on the field and Barcelona didn't have any other players besides the one Xavi is using to pay for games. So why is everyone blaming the coach when many people don't understand football? In Barcelona's match against Villarreal yesterday, Xavi actually made a good formation and a good substitution that would have won the game, but the players' performance are so bad.

When Villarreal scores two goals, Barcelona leads 3-2. However, before the game is over, Villarreal scores three more goals to win 5-3. The reason for this is entirely the players' fault; the fourth goal Villarreal scores comes from a defensive play by Barcelona player. How can they be playing inside the box when they need to win a match? It's great to hear that Xavi wants to leave the team. We'll see how Barcelona manages to get a good coach, but even if they do, their performance will still be subpar because they didn't sell sell players and didn't sign any new ones.

This performance has been very bad from Barcelona. I think it is actually not a bad decision for Xavi to leave Barcelona. Because if he stays in Barcelona, they might have a very bad result in this season and everything will be blamed on him. Of course, he is not the one to blame. At least not the only one. The authorities of Barcelona are irresponsible and Barcelona as a club has been wasting money. And this is the result they are getting for that. A club cannot survive in the long run if they cannot even register the players that they are trying to acquire.

The current condition of Barcelona is not just due to some mistakes being done this season but Barcelona was decaying from the inside for years. They were doing more politics recently and being Més que un club they forgot how to make a good football club.
Not just the barcagate, Barcelona made controversies on release of both Messi and Neymar mostly because they were struggling to finance the team as they had accumulated huge debt. They would have performed better if they had spent money on players than bribing the referees.
