The reason for Xavi dismissal is not as you said, friend, so far Laporta is quite satisfied with Xavi performance in Barcelona and even during Barcelona last game we can hear how Barcelona fans continue to shout Xavi yes and Laporta no, which means that the level of fan satisfaction with Xavi performance at Barcelona is of course very high, besides that when Xavi has decided to step down Barcelona, management and also Laporta asked for Xavi to stay at least until Xavi contract at Barcelona expires in 2025, and even before Barcelona continued to urge Xavi to extend his contract at Barcelona, the main reason Laporta fired Xavi was none other than Laporta was angry because Xavi said if: it is difficult to compete with Madrid for the title because Barcelona economy is in difficult conditions at the moment.

I only shared what I read on the media, it is not my own opinion.
However, I think it makes sense if Laporta fired him because he can't win any trophy. Barcelona always set a high target in each season, I think it is normal for a big team like Barcelona. Even in any top team in the world, they should change the manager if the manager can fulfill the minimum target.

If the level of satisfaction is high, Xavi must still stay in the club. It is not only about the satisfaction of the fans but it is also how the satisfaction of the club management. Even fans want Xavi to stay, Xavi may leave if the club management feel unsatisfied. Not sure if the reason to fire Xavi is related to Xavi's statement, no one can really prove it. But if it is true, it is very unfortunate that the club management decides it carelessly.

Xavi remarks triggered Laporta to fire Xavi~

Nothing wrong with Xavi's statement. He said a truth and he thinks realistically. If there is a rumor saying Laporta get angry because of the statement, I think it is just an excuse. What makes it strange is Laporta asked Xavi to stay but he suddenly changes his mind. I think it is about Laporta's mentality that is not suitable for being a club president.

~ when Xavi was blamed for not being able to meet Laporta expectations, shouldn't Laporta be the one who deserves to be blamed for not providing enough financial support to achieve those expectations?

There is no any statement in my post that I blame Xavi. I even supported Xavi to stay in Barcelona. Sure, Laporta is the only one to be blamed because he decides to fire Xavi after he asked him to stay. It is something annoying for me! Roll Eyes
