Xavi: “Playing Real is extra motivation”

Xavi spoke to the press today to share his thoughts about La Liga and the upcoming clásico. As usual, Xavi was as elegant with his answers as he is playing football on the field, but he did not avoid hard questions and clearly stated what most culés have been feeling this last couple of weeks: that referees are feeling the pressure from Madrid. The following quotes are from Diario Sport and Mundo Deportivo.

“Referees are making more mistakes against us this year,” said Xavi. ”After the Espanyol and Betis game we feel that way” but he also reckoned that “refereeing is hard. We understand it’s hard to make decisions so quick. But it’s the way it is, we are not complaining, we know that refereeing is complicated“.

The best playmarker in the world also gave his opinion on the next clásico. “I like playing in the Bernabeu,” said Xavi. ”Real is a big historic rival and Bernabéu is a special football field for Barça. Playing them is extra motivation. If this was a one-game thing, then anything could happen. But when you have a qualifying round of two games, then you have some time to show who is the better side. Getting out of the Copa could be a morale blow for the side that loses.”

Barça’s second captain is also aware of the importance and the challenge of the new clásico. “We know that Madrid is a very difficult opponent,” he said. ”We will try to be the protagonists, as possession, having the ball is the best defense.”

In this sense, Xavi has a clear recipe to come home with a victory. “We would not go there and speculate,” he said. ”We will try to play as we are used to, try to have possession of the ball all time. I am not saying anything new here. This is what you would see in every game we play. It’s a qualifying round, so the more goals we get away from home, the better our chances to pass the round. We will go out there and play according to our philosophy and style, we do not know any other way.”

Xavi also spoke about the clásico he most enjoyed over his more than decade long stint with Barça’s first team. “If I had to choose one clásico, I would pick the 5-0 at the Camp Nou. It summed up the excellence of what this team is “, he said, referring to that unforgettable game played in November, 2010.

Xavi also praised his team mate Alexis Sánchez, whose contribution was instrumental in defeating Betis on Sunday. “Alexis gives us great depth,” said Xavi of the Chilean. ”For a midfielder like me it is a privilege to have someone who has the ability to leave his markers behind like he does.”

Watch and learn, Xabi:

Vil benytte lejligheden til at ønske Xavi et stort tillykke med de 32 år!

Må han blive i klubben for altid!

Tillykke med de 32!. Må han blive i klubben til han er 40!. Verdens bedste midt-midt, nogensinde!.

32 år allerede? Hvor bliver tiden dog af!

Hørt! Han må også gerne blive længere end de 40 så længe han er god nok og herefter evt. i en træner rolle el lign.

Dunno. Jeg husker dengang, han blev anset for et talent. Man føler sig jo helt gammel. Dog naturligvis ikke lige så gammel som Skydefinten rent faktisk er.

Hov hov unge mand. Jeg er kun et græsstrå ældre end hr.Hernandez Creus. Men hvis han giver den gas de næste par år, kan han muligvis godt opnå lige så meget på en fodboldbane, som jeg har. (Og nu er min oldboys karriere først lige startet).

Når Xavi engang om en 10-20 år lægger støvlerne på hylden, er jeg sikker på, at han kigger tilbage på sin karriere med bitterhed: Han spillede aldrig i Langå og omegn.

Langå er pisse ringe :D dem har jeg spillet mod. er faktisk tit i gruppe med dem

Små slag, det kan han jo nå endnu

hvis i spørger mig er xavi manden der en dag skal afløse pep som træner i barcelona.

Kæmpe tillykke til vores overblærede, kæmpeseje og sindsygvilde midtbanegeneral!
