Xavi was been criticized when Barca was facing a little difficulties in winning their matches, and this led to Xavi making conclusions to leave the club by the end of this season. But I must say that, Xavi did a great job to manage the players on ground, and finally brought out the best in them, which led to the current form of the club. I know that Xavi ha e little experience in the coaching job compared to Luis Enrique, but it is going to be a matter of time for us to know the coach that can come up with the proper strategy for his team to qualify to the next round.
It's normal for Xavi to receive criticism, especially when Barcelona's performance is really underperforming. as a coach, he is also responsible for the performance of his team's squad. Regarding Xavi's statement to leave Barcelona, I'm sure it's not just a matter of his team's performance. There are several other issues that caused Xavi to end his coaching with Barcelona until this season, but what we are discussing is not that in this discussion but the match between Paris Saint-Germain vs Barcelona. This match should be interesting, bringing together Luis Enrique and Xavi Hernandez. Both of them have worked together in Barcelona. Luis Enrique as coach, Xavi as central midfielder at that time. Now, the two meet again in the Champions League competition. Luis Enrique with PSG, Xavi with Barcelona.
The point is, PSG is now slowly starting to find its rhythm in Enrique's hands. Meanwhile for Barcelona, their performance was not very stable, plus several key players were injured. referring to the temporary betting market, Paris Saint-Germain is more favored by bookmakers. Maybe, because Paris Saint-Germain has a good record when playing home games. On the other hand, Barcelona is starting to improve even though several of their core players have not fully recovered from injuries. but at least, Xavi will try to do a good job with his squad. I hope this match will present a match worth watching. So, let's just wait.
