XAVI: “IT’S TIME FOR FOOTBALL REVENGE”

The coach of Barcelona, Xavi Hernandezconsidered that this Saturday “is the time for football revenge” against Cadizwhich the azulgranas have not been able to win in the last four league games.

“It will be a rocky and difficult rival, they have complicated the last four games for us. It is time for football revenge. They come at a bad time, but that is worse because they have an opportunity to beat us and get out of this hole,” he commented. Xavi about the Andalusian team, which still does not know what it means to score points this season.

In any case, the technician barca recalled that Nuevo Mirandilla is “a field where leagues are won” and that his team must “park the Champions League”, where next Tuesday they visit the Bayern Munichand focus on “getting the three points” against the team from Cadiz.

For this reason, he announced that for tomorrow’s match “the idea is not to reserve anyone”, when asked if players like Robert Lewandowski or Pedri Gonzalez they could rest thinking about Munich.

“The best team will start, but then there are five changes. Sometimes those who start don’t win. Ansu made the difference in Anoeta with half an hour. Now there are no starters or substitutes, only important players. Understanding this is key for the team “, he pointed.

In this sense, Xavi He described it as a “blessing” to be able to count on such a “large” squad this season: “We have all the positions doubled. It’s what I wanted for this year. The minutes are expensive and the problem is blessed for me.”

So much competition has relegated two of the captains to substitution: the side Jordi Alba and the center Gerard Piquéwith whom he insisted that he speaks often.

“With Jordi Alba I don’t know if the club hasn’t worked out for him. I have been to his face. I am very clear, and with him even more because of the relationship that unites us. He knows that there is competition and that the one who is best will play, and he continues to pull the cart. Look no further because inside there is no controversy, there is no debate, “he commented on his former teammate in the Barça dressing room.

And he also defended the attitude of Pique: “Speaking with him, I encourage him because it is not an easy situation. He was very good the other day (against Victoria Pilsen) at the exit of the ball. He is going to enter and, if everyone is prepared, the successes will come “.

The team trains this afternoon at the Ciudad Deportiva Joan Gamper, but Xavi announced that the last two reinforcements, the lateral Hector Bellerin and Marcos Alonsowill enter the call, and that probably Sergio Robert stay out for some inconvenience.

On the other hand, he praised the performance of Fernando Torres -“the work is non-negotiable and he has it, and we trust him”, he commented on the Valencian attacker- and Ansu Fati: “I see him very well, and he has told us that he is already one hundred percent.”

And finally, he refused to assess the possibility that the striker Antoine Griezmann go back to barca after the Atletico Madrid refuses to pay his 40 million purchase option.

“It’s a club issue, it’s not up to me. The two clubs must talk. There’s no debate, he’s a player of the Atletico Madrid“, he concluded Xavi Hernandez.
