Barça faced Alavés in Vitoria in what could be considered a true 'final', not only because of the result and their aspirations in LaLiga, but also because Xavi's work was under the spotlight, and a setback could have led to increase rumors about his possible dismissal

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona has begun with good foot the way for revertir the negative dynamics in which it found sumido in the last days, which has carried to take drastic decisions, like the announcement of the exit of Xavi Hernández, the one who left clear that his cycle in the Barcelona bench will finish the next 30 June. Since, the Barça has attained to impose to the Osasuna (1-0) and to the Alavés (1-3) in LaLiga, what has begun to generate a feeling of stability in the Catalan cast.

Precisely, this feeling of 'tranquility' that has gone fraguando in the Barcelonan picture with these two consecutive victories and very necessary for enderezar the course in LaLiga, surely has relieved also to Joan Laporta. If the group culé had followed accumulating negative results without showing signs of reaction, is very likely that the mandator blaugrana had seen forced to take a hard decision regarding the technician egarense, advancing like this the closing of his stage like trainer in the combined of the City Condal and having to look for to time trial a new preparador to manage the staff to the end of this course.

When restarting the way of the victory, a footpath that could go back firmer considering the next commitments are against the Granada CF (11/02) and the Celtic of Vigo (17/02), two rivals of the low part of the table that theoretically would have to be escollos superables for the Barça, could think that the rumours on the unsteadiness of Xavi Hernández in the Barcelona technical direction could finish to be entirely surpassed.

The FC Barcelona will look for 'finish' the campaign 23/24 of the best possible form

In this sense, the plan of the directive of the FC Barcelona could follow developing of the most optimum way possible. It is necessary to remember that, in this moment, the aim to the that the Catalan picture seems to aim with greater optimism is the Champions League, since recover the advantage of points that has the Real Madrid, current leader of LaLiga, although it was not impossible, seems more complicated. In any case, from the City Condal, the called seem to be that the one of Terrassa can guide to the team to close the season of the most decorous way possible, litigating by titles at least until May. It is evident that, if they lose the aspirations to win a prompt title, already was in February or March, the closing of campaign will go back quite more 'weighed'.

It will be necessary to expect to see how finishes this period 23/24 for the Barcelonan square, that, of the hand of Joan Laporta, has taken a decision perhaps 'risky' when keeping to Xavi Hernández to the end of the season. This decision bases in the prestige and the affection that has him to the egarense by his paper like icon culé. Up to now, the Barcelona mandator has known to keep this decision with templanza, and the results have accompanied him to avoid that it question seriously his election and see forced to destituir to the egarense ahead of time.

To occur the dismissal of Xavi, would generate a small stir that would require to look for quickly a new technician. In this context, a possible option would be Rafa Márquez, that at present works in the Barça Atlètic. Nevertheless, in the City Condal do not seem to see this option like something attractive, since, as they aim from 'SPORT', apparently the picture culé would consider that it would be to burn a letter ahead of time, something that could avoid .
