Yes, it looks like Barcelona will have the potential to be firmly in second place in Laliga until the end of this season. and Atletico Madrid, recently their performance has not been stable, and neither has Girona. and Barcelona against Atletico Madrid with a score of 0-3 will certainly make Barcelona fans believe that Barcelona will be superior and be ranked runner-up. until the end of the season and on week to 30 we will see Barcelona against Las Palmas. I think Barcelona will easily be able to beat Las Palmas, but if Barcelona draws or loses it will certainly open up space for Girona so of course Xavi has to be alert even though his opponent at that time is Las Palmas.
Yes, the financial problems that Barcelona has been experiencing for a long time certainly haven't made Barcelona lose its performance because Barcelona is good at shopping for players and Barcelona always gets the right players.
That's what I'm worried about and hope Barcelona can perform better next season, even though for example Xavi isn't the one coaching Barcelona.
I really agree with you, regarding Barcelona will remain in second place in the LaLiga standings. Looking from my perspective, Barcelona seems reluctant to compete for the Laliga Champion title, instead Barcelona is focusing on the Europa League and pampering players and the financial sector which currently has problems. must be done by Barcelona Management in the coming season so that Barcelona's finances are not hampered by buying players with limited money, so there is no problem if Barcelona has to be satisfied with being in second place in Laliga because that is the right step taken by Barcelona and management, if forced then it is very likely that Barcelona will go bankrupt with their limited money to buy players.
For this season, Barcelona will try to catch up even though it is very difficult because they are already far behind Real Madrid who are at the top of the standings, but with their quality which is now getting better I think they will try as hard as possible because mathematically they still have a chance to do that. .
And realistically Barcelona only has a bigger chance in the UCL so now they are also shifting their focus there to give their best performance, now Barcelona is in the quarter-finals so their journey is not long, even though it is difficult.
