I HAD NEVER DECLARED SOMETHING LIKE THIS BEFORE: The harsh self-criticism of Xavi Hernández after the defeat of FC Barcelona against Almería

Xavi Hernandez He was especially self-critical following the defeat (1-0) of the FC Barcelona once morest Almería in the Spanish League.

Teacher It was very clear: this Sunday was Barça’s worst game so far in the 2022/23 season.

There was a slight improvement in the plugin, but they lacked everything. They lacked fluidity with the ball, they lacked attitude, they lacked intensity. And that is something they mightn’t afford knowing that Real Madrid had just dropped points once morest Atlético de Madrid.

Although it is true that they came from a hard blow (elimination from the UEFA Europa League) and have been accumulating fatigue, there are no excuses. Today they failed. They were bad. And that is why he considered it prudent to apologize to the fans.

XAVI’S HARDEST SELF-CRITICISM SINCE HE ARRIVED AT FC BARCELONA

«Very pissed off because I think we played the worst game of the season, from my point of view, especially in the first half. We have lacked circulation, we have lacked intensity, we have lacked rhythm. And today was a day that we might not fail, especially in this. We have not shown passion to win the game. In the second part, yes, but you’re already going to the trailer and they defend the area very well. They have wasted time, they have played with the result. It was difficult for us, a difficult game. Hard day for us. But, well, we’re still in the race, it’s the positive, we’re still leaders. But today, for our part, we have not been. The worst game of the season »released the Spanish coach, in an interview for Movistar Soccer.

«I think we have noticed a little fatigue, the trip. That’s why we’ve done a lot of rotations, we’ve played a lot of games. That might be where the fatigue came from. A golden opportunity has been lost. We knew that, we had discussed it in the talk. It has not been. It’s been a bad day for us.”

Sorry to the fans: «We have failed, I offer an apology to the fans because today was an important day. Madrid played and we mightn’t play here. We missed a golden opportunity. To win this League we have to change the passion, the desire, the illusion.
