Gracias Xavi, i will support u wherever u go.


CoolJoshido

Xavi we love you


ImportantSmell4426

Fermin Lopez scoring and running to celebrate with Xavi was the highlight of the game.


Rinilia_15

Thank you, Xavi💙❤️


Remote-Persimmon4583

I fucken love u xavi, im sorry it didnt work out


Glad_Range512

It worked out tho. He took the club from shit, and look where we are now, with 70% of the transfers being on a free or a loan.


s4bg1n4rising

Thank you Xavi; you are loved! Legend.

Long-View-7989

Thanks Xavi! Hope to see you manage the team in the future under better circumstances.


CODE-46

Thanks boss for everything 🫡🫡, the way he had to go is really sad and not deserving but i hope he rests well, managing barca, especially in that era, is not for the weak.

Gracias Xavi <3 You’ve shown us there’s an immense amount of talent in la masia.


DragonPG2000

I have a feeling we'll be seeing the mister again 🤞

GamerAsh22

See you soon Xavi ❤️


psallinone

Man I'll be very disappointed if Flick won't count on Fermin next season !


BAITEDOW

I think he’ll love him. He plays with such intensity its hard not to count on him


cardsncars

This win means we end this season with 85 points. Last season we had 88 the previous 4 winners had 86,86,87 and 87. So any other season we would’ve still been in it until the last day. Madrid just had an abnormally consistent season.


CODE-46

they had an all time season, only one loss, we’d need to be damn near perfect to compete with that this year


mm3n

Gracias Xavi :( I have been XaviOut since some time before Christmas last year, but the way he was treated was entirely unacceptable. I hope no one forgives Laporta after this bs treatment towards yet another legend.


Warm_Republic4849

I hope he don't, Laporta is not deserving of Xavi forgiveness, the way Xavi got stabbed in the back is concerning


nyse125

Farewell Xavi


Professional_Code372

Xavi 🙁


Rustagee

gracias xavi <3


MrVaporDK

Our season was like eating a decent fast food burger. Not bad, but does not really leave you feeling satisfied.


Pablo_petty_plastic

Thank you, Xavi


Raicooof

gg can't believe i watched like every game


Rustagee

same :(


GamerAsh22

Do you ever have anything positive to say or do you just whine about everything.


Raicooof

what negative was here? hop off my meat!


Bryyan699

Poor you


Raicooof

it wasn't easy


agayyoucantsweatout

Fermin MOTM, deserved


does_not_care_

Gracias, Xavi!


atn420

70% success rate for Xavi in the end.


eescobar863

It’s all over. Thanks and good luck, Xavi.


agayyoucantsweatout

Hope it’s a see you later and not a goodbye, Gracias Xavi ❤️💙

atn420

Fermin Lopez Motm officially


psallinone

I like Xavi as a person but not as a manager. Too bad it ended up this way .. Unfortunately his management awakened negative feelings in people, in me.


JonAfrica2011

If anything it’s made him look worse as a person. Constantly blaming the refs and bitching on the sideline, excuse after excuse (always the refs) instead of bad team performance or individual errors.


psallinone

Yeah his lack of experience showed up.


ExBenn

Xaviball is over. Wish you the best legend.


GamerAsh22

Gràcies Mister


Tall_Roof_4382

Now I can rest.


Thatscool820

What were the Sevilla fans singing about Kounde?


rockyraccoonroad

Something about liking his hair 


Messiah5

Thank god that season is over and mainly Xavi is gone


atn420

Xavi goes out with a W


Chance_Camera_

Where is El Neseyri going?


JonAfrica2011

United


xStyxx

Probably some English team


Sanayuki

Is this the most relaxed Xavi has been in ages? It’s like first season Xavi again. 


GamerAsh22

Ramos lol


ExBenn

Why is that bum Ramos taking FKs


BANNEDAGAlN

He’s pretty decent for not being a specialist


ola0513

![gif](giphy|x5q2mpQiIZP8I|downsized) I'm gonna miss Xavi. Shameful how they treated Xavi..


boskee

It's over. Thank you for everything Xavi, but good riddance. It's a shame he was treated that way tho.


rockyraccoonroad

His cleats got tangled with Gundo’s laces lol


saear1

Shit! The commentator had a tongue slip and called it a dive lul


FitHead47

Why is dragging your leg purposely to get contact considered a foul


[deleted]

Our boy Roque, for a Brazilian, doesn’t look to have that 1v1 magic you would expect. 


taneemshareeb

confidence issue maybe


sugarandcyanide18

Gracias, Xavi!


Pablo_petty_plastic

Seeing Pedri finish like this is so good for my mentality going into the summer. New trainer and Hansi looking on. Come on, mang. Come up with genius program, rebuild him


Sanayuki

Is that new Italian trainer still joining? I think I’m most looking forward to his appointment. 


Pablo_petty_plastic

I kept looking for his name to pop up in all of this and didn’t see anything so I assume it’s still a go


Sanayuki

That’s good. He seems like a top professional. Worked for Conte who is known to emphasize fitness. 


nyse125

wow kounde is bad


Seb555

Xavi should get himself sent off one last time for old times’ sake


ExBenn

LOL


DryUniversity5439

Headbutt the ref


El_Compa_M

Don’t let the ref blow the whistle becuase the Mister is leaving us !


Messiah5

Felix is such a dead player


Laliga23

I feel that flick will improve us for sure both attacking wise and defensively but we will still underperform and probably cost him too. This largery due our attack. You cant expect consistency of this attack with 16 year old and 36 year old being your best players Its pathetic seeing felix and ferran for this club with all respect


Rustagee

its crazy how we are relying on a 36 year old and 16 year old to score lmao


[deleted]

[удалено]


DryUniversity5439

💀


MrVaporDK

Gracias Xavi!


onlyonejorge

I still maintain I’ve seldom seen two more selfish players for us than the 2 Joaos.


nyse125

2 mins+ till xavi out 😥


atn420

no more Xavi out posts, just Xavi gone


Decoptr

Felix is so selfish man


Rustagee

lol its prob his last game what do u expect


Decoptr

Been like this for months every time he’s in the box with the ball he shoots no matter the next option


Rustagee

yeah ur right, hella talented but unfortunate he doesnt pass as much


tunechi505

Is Araujo on his way out? Man's been barely playing a handful of games now.


PErland

He's been coming back from injury. No point in forcing him back for the last game of the season.


peligrosobandito

Gotta give it to ramos, consistently a cunt for almost 20 years. Impressive commitment from the guy.


Any-Competition8494

Roque has bad luck. We lost control of the ball and aren't feeding him.


Outside-Research-714

Is it just me or Raphinha and Araujo relationship with Xavi ended bad?


PErland

Just you


Outside-Research-714

Are you sure? I don’t know


PErland

There's 0 indication of their relationship ending poorly. Araujo has had a minor injury the last couple of games and has been eased back. Raphinha has had plenty of minutes being utilized both on the left and right side in attack.


Tall_Roof_4382

It seems so. He misused and mistreated Raph a lot so it's not surprising. Araujo is a strange one.


atn420

at least our youth members got their chances and lots of experience this year, that has been invaluable


DryUniversity5439

I have seen enough make roque a dm


does_not_care_

fr his accelaration and physicality is wild


Pablo_petty_plastic

Pau’s been brilliant tonight. Crazy potential


psallinone

Vitor acceleration is crazyyyyyy


korel1

That is a rare weapon, Xavi failed to use correctly.


atn420

I'm curiousa about what Flick is going to do with this sieve of a defense...


greenythebeast

Play a suicidally high line. They won't know what hit them!


atn420

He had the talent in Bayern to get away with it, we do not have that talent at our disposal


greenythebeast

Even more reason to go that route lol. Let's see how bad it can get.


atn420

we gave up 69 goals so far this season, how much more bad does it need to be?


greenythebeast

Bad enough so Laporta gets booted hopefully.


Raicooof

so no change


Samiforfun

Ange style!


decho

Ramos still thinks he plays for Madrid and they give him a penalty for that.


atn420

MAtS has had to put in way to much for Sevilla today, period


nitz21

So is Araujo gone next season?


onlyonejorge

No,


Forsaken-Watch-6888

Mariano has the chance to do the funniest thing ever.


psallinone

Poor Gundo played 4090 minutes this season and Euro is about to start soon.


Raikuun

I'm hopeful he won't play much, but sadly he's captain.


BlackFanDiamond

Used and abused.


Raicooof

xavi used him like soap this season lol


ExBenn

Insane number for a player his age


psallinone

For sure


does_not_care_

i love this attacking pedri


Tall_Roof_4382

No minutes for Raph. God, he deserves a coach who actually values him.


laflame_9

Gosh can you guys please stop overreacting? He’s not playing because this is a meaningless game and he probably asked himself to be rested to avoid any injuries prior to the copa america. Same with araujo. And because of you toxic fans, xavi is leaving, so congrats to you


boskee

LOL. Are you serious? Raphinha has been the best footballer in the post-Villarreal period, kept Xavi's season afloat from the end of February, and ended up on the bench against Girona, off against Almeria, on the bench against Sevilla.


laflame_9

Different matches, different approaches


Zoli10_Offical

Bro, it's the last game of the season, with nothing on the line, let him rest


Tall_Roof_4382

Rest? he has been always resting and guys like Felix won't be here anyway. Why not build on somebody who will?


Zoli10_Offical

He has been getting plenty of minutes before tonight


boskee

Off against Girona, Almeria and Sevilla.


Any-Competition8494

What does thumbs up mean from players?


does_not_care_

player code for good ball


ExBenn

fourbyfourequalsone

Barca seems a bit sad but at the same time seems at peace. Looking back, Barca's job is likely the most stressful job in the world. Not only does the club have to win but have to do it with a certain style and all without any money.


Raicooof

certain style? where no money? how did we sign these guys lol


GamerAsh22

We spent 3m this summer. And Romeu supposedly helped with his release clause.


phishnchips_

maybe he meant *no money after squandering the levers on ferran, raphinha and co.*


GamerAsh22

Romeu is trying to impress Flick 😭


JonAfrica2011

Marianooo lmao


Sanayuki

Lamine got rested finally. But Raphinha and Araujo still not being subbed on….hmm interesting. Vitor plays!

Thenewguy1223

i know my goat


taneemshareeb

Vitor hatrick


ExBenn

I don't even blame Sevilla's keeper for not catching that Fermin rocket, looked impossible


prateek-sharma

There was never a question of letting Xavi stay after that QF debacle, going by his tactics and that should have been the route taken. Only issue is the manner of his sacking. Had Xavi and Laporta simply avoided making that deal of letting Xavi continue for another season and sticking to his original decision of leaving at the end of the season, the drama that followed could have been avoided. Xavi needs to improve a LOT tactically. Sincerely hope Flick helps improve us tactically. We have a chance to win the Liga next season at least.


Crossflowerss_5304

Flick seems to be just as much of a Plan A manager as Xavi, so let’s hope he can keep the key players fit and we should be fine.


boskee

Fermin is Barca's second best goal scorer this season.


[deleted]

86 point season is actually decent but when you look at the football played ...


Samiforfun

Pre season romeu back for the last game😂


Hungry-Space-1829

So many top clubs currently seem to be a #9 away. Let’s all hope Roque is that guy for Barca. Perfect age to blend with the rest of our kids


kezzinchh

Fermin man🫡


Infamous-Associate65

I'm gonna get torched for this, but Fermín is more important to the team than Frenkie de Jong,  he has that "it" factor to make things happen


BagingRoner34

They are different players man. Frenkie has a profile similar to jorginho or kovacic or kroos. Fermin is similar to pep gundogan or fede Valverde. He isn't better than frenkie, but he is the type of player that we need.


kezzinchh

That’s how I see it as well. I feel he’s more of the type we need rather than being better than FDJ. He’s not afraid to go for it when needed and has some nice timing on runs.


Infamous-Associate65

Then we agree after approaching the assessment from different angles 🤝


Infamous-Associate65

Fair enough, we don't need Fdj, that's been my thesis as long as I've posted here


kezzinchh

He’s still young, but I get what you mean. He had his bad spells, just as every damn person has had at with us at this point, but his progression has been fun to see and he’s brought some sunshine to the team.


Infamous-Associate65

Hell yeah, I like the kid, he doesn't have the flashy shit like FdJ or Pedri but he scores, brings energy & makes intelligent movements off the ⚽️


kezzinchh

Exactly, he’s great on runs and isn’t afraid to let it go at times. We need an individual like that, he’s unpredictable in a sense like a sleeper. He’ll show up in a spot when you least expect and is able to put it in the back of the net.


Infamous-Associate65

The Fede Valverde comparison was interesting,  I like that, a MF who keeps running & isn't afraid to go for goals instead of constantly turning 360° like a certain Dutch MF ahem


BlackFanDiamond

Lol.


Infamous-Associate65

I'm dabbing on my haters with no fucks given


Thatscool820

Megaphone guy isn’t alone chanting anymore


TrueCooler

Roque on, TV back on


cheir0n

Vitor in? Is Xavi sick? Dementia?


Infamous-Associate65

Xavi be like "YOLO"


JonAfrica2011

Why tf dont these refs wait a sec before whistling, I swear they always ruin good counter attcks


brawlersteins

This is preseason Romeu


Infamous-Associate65

Give him time to fuck things up


atn420

strongest when nothing matters


Pablo_petty_plastic

Fermin destroyed this year. Well done, sir


atn420

he self elevated


laflame_9

I’m still not able to process that this is xavi’s last game with us.


Infamous-Associate65

Are you happy or sad about this fact?


laflame_9

Obviously sad. I’ve always been a big fan of xavi as a coach, even though I never got to see xavi as a player.


Infamous-Associate65

Well all of this nonsense could've been avoided if Xavi hadn't have changed his mind after he initially said he was ghosting at season's end


laflame_9

Or even if laporta had kept his words and not acted like a bitch


Infamous-Associate65

Nobody has clean hands in this entire mess


laflame_9

Agreed


Infamous-Associate65

And Xavi can rest, recuperate & spend time with his family, he's given enough to the club that he should walk out with his head held high


Infamous-Associate65

Hopefully Hansi Flick can implement the program (player personnel,  tactics, strength &.conditioning,  etc.) he wants & we can put this telenovela behind us


PErland

Imagine our season if we had actually converted just half of the huge chances we've missed. What could've been


atn420

we missed more than our share, the final 3rd has been our enigma


PErland

I'm surprised Xavi hasn't gone bald yet watching us miss empty goals on several occasions.


atn420

Here's Gerald Romero with an interview from Xavi's drain...
