I am very impressed with Barcelona struggle to get out of their downturn this season, they were knocked out of the top four positions due to poor performances which resulted in them losing a lot of points. However, Barcelona was able to show its identity as a big team in La Liga, now they have managed to re-enter the UCL Zone by occupying second place. The decline in performance of Atletico and Girona provides an advantage for Barcelona, although it is a bit difficult for Barcelona to reach the first position now occupied by Real Madrid, they can try to secure the runner up position until the end of the season.
All of Barcelona's current struggles cannot be separated from Xavi's struggle, who wants to leave Barcelona with a good impression. He doesn't want to leave Barcelona in a slump because that will make it difficult for the coach who will replace Xavi. I really appreciate Xavi's success while he was coaching a club like Barcelona even though the club he was coaching did not have good financial resources and he also couldn't recruit the players he needed, but in fact Xavi was still able to provide a good performance with the players that Barcelona currently has. Even though they experienced a decline, Barcelona was able to quickly recover and improve its position and is currently in 2nd place just below Real Madrid.
It's great to see Barcelona returning to its best version, the decline of Girona and Atletico Madrid gave Barcelona a golden opportunity to overtake them and finally Barcelona was able to successfully pass them. I hope Barcelona continues to appear consistent in the remaining matches this season because the clubs below them are not too far away so Barcelona must be able to make the best use of this moment by becoming 2nd place in Laliga. With Barcelona's more confident condition, I think he is ready to face PSG in the Champions League and can eliminate PSG in the quarter-finals.
