In the club very bad financial condition, of course, it is difficult for a coach to maximize their target of winning the championship trophy, but not so with Xavi who was even able to give the La Liga trophy to Barcelona in his first season in charge, even with limited finances like now Xavi is still able to lead Barcelona to compete as a challenger for the La Liga title and of course reach the quarterfinals of the Champions League is It was good performance by Xavi this season at Barcelona, but he was sacked without respect after all the successes and achievements in building Barcelona on the verge of bankruptcy so far.
Barcelona disrespectful dismissal certainly did not dampen the interest of other teams to sign Xavi, many football clubs today have indeed recognized Xavi capacity and ability to coach, but reportedly now Xavi may be resting before he will coach a new club, Chelsea and Xavi have indeed established intense contact about the possibility of working together, But somehow the deal did not happen and now Chelsea will actually make Enzo Maresca as their coach next season because currently Chelsea and Leicester City are in the process of finalizing a deal.
This season is one season Barcelona fans wants to forget in a hurry as this season have been one of their down seasons coupled with the financial issues of the club. Club’s finances is always a big worry especially as it’s not going to help the club be able to get the proper signings they need. This is one challenge the club has faced this season and as such have had to manage with the injured players and the available players.
Managing with both sets of players seems to be real tough and this can be troublesome especially for the coach. And i feel because of the trouble and all Xavi decided to depart the club at the end of the season. The win against Mallorca was a boost for them especially as they were headed into the UCL game against Napoli but they just weren't able to scale through up to this moment. You can see how they’ve managed to fight all hard with their injury crisis.
Xavi has been a good manager at the Spanish side, even though they've had some shaky situations, they've just found a way to cover up lapses and make necessary coverings to the loopholes. It's very much good that they were able to put in good effort regardless of what they lacked to good team building. Nonetheless, Xavi would have still done better than he's already done.
Well, his days with the team are technically numbered and he's got some commendations which he definitely deserves. I don't know what to say about his intended replacement but all I'll say is Barcelona as a team has work to be done and I'd love to see the new Barcelona in seasons and games to come. It's just too late for Barcelona to draw back up to the right track.
