Criticism is Xavi's way out of trouble at FC Barcelona
Although the exclusion was assumed from the day Barcelona drew in the Camp Nou against Inter, the European failure of Xavi's team was completed on Wednesday, not only with the farewell to the round of 16 of the Champions League, also with the picture presented by the team against Bayern Munich , which is to give up a new win and make clear that the project still lacks the ability to compete with the greats of European football
Once the failure is complete, it is time for conclusions, but it is better not to leave Xavi alone and criticize himself if he wants his team to continue to progress and reach the title this season, a goal that the club set for itself when it decided last summer to activate up to four levers to strengthen the team with many deals
Xavi has to ask himself why in so many matches what he wants is not reflected on the pitch, for example, let him ask about the intensity and pressure, you just have to see the first goal of the Germans and since Musiala does not have any Blaugrana footballer around him, he made a pass Deep into my mane in complete comfort
The exact opposite happened by the Bayern players, every time a Barcelona player received the ball he had one or two Germans breathing around him, not letting him turn around and some of them making mistakes if necessary
Xavi should also ask himself why Barcelona have so many problems defending against big teams, and why are they attacking so hard in these matches? Why is a team disorganized when things are not going well, poorly positioned on the pitch and facilitating the opponent's attacks
And another question, is it worth insisting a lot with Dembele? He is the least balanced in the team in general, as well as insisting on Busquets in the big matches, only with self-criticism can the group develop, which is what Xavi must stop at
