The Andalusian midfielder is two cards away from suspension with two games left to host Real Madrid
Xavi has already said on more than one occasion that they are working with him on self-control and emotional management
The football of Gavi -which has taken this course a step forward and has hard earned the label of indisputable in the schemes of Xavi Hernandez– it cannot be understood without its passion or its intensity. “I would give everything for Barça,” the youth player recently said in an interview in ‘La Vanguardia’ that was published the same day he was sent off – with a second card that he could have avoided – in Porto.
With the two yellow cards he saw in Do Dragão, the Andalusian now has six this season in ten games played.
“I think he was controlling himself very well, I think today was an exception to what we had been working on,” said the Barça coach after the Champions League victory in Portugal. “We are helping him mature, I think he has improved since we have been in office. He was competing very well and I think he was sent off for moving the ball, because the foul was not the second yellow card. “There was very little left and the referee could have saved it.”
WORK ON THE TEMPERAMENT
And the midfielder is working, as he explained Xavi, in that self-control and the management of emotions and intensity in matches to minimize warnings. On more than one occasion the Egarense has commented to Gavi that he must control his temperament, although he has also said that “he is like that and it is difficult for him to change,” because if he changes, perhaps he would not be so good. Because he has it in his DNA, it is his way of being and, therefore, of playing.
Against Granada you are warned. Can’t see card. Because it would be his fourth and he would be ready for the duel against Athletic, just after the break and before the classic, with the Champions League match against Shakhtar that has already been lost due to the expulsion in Porto. It is an opportunity for the ‘prince’ of Los Palacios to show his coach, who trusts him so much, that he can be intense and passionate but also mature. Because the rival knows that Barça is more dangerous with Gavi plugged in. And they won’t leave him alone.
