The FC Barcelona begins to assume the exit of Xavi Hernández that has announced that, when it culminate the season, will abandon the team so that it can begin a new stage. It has determined that it is the responsible maximum of the sportive crisis by which cross the culés and that the most favourable is that he of a step at the side. It announced it after the defeat against the Villarreal, in press conference, before warning him to the staff, that has remained 'sunk' by the decision of the egarense.
This Sunday, in the return to the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper for the session of recovery after the varapalo against the 'yellow submarine', produced two 'meetings' in the changing room in which Xavi Hernández and Joan Laporta have taken the word to give explanations, justify and, finally, define the leaf of route for the next four months. It is not a secret for anybody that the situation in LaLiga is complicated -to eleven points of distance of the leadership- and that the team would have to give an important jump of quality to compete in the Champions League, but do not want to remain without trying it.
The trainer egarense has had to expose the reasons that have carried him to take the decision to abandon the ship after two years and half. It does not want to be a problem for the Barça and understands that it can not be the one who 'solve' the problems that drags the club. The tension already is quite strong and wanted to more tranquility, for the players, directors, fans and for him same. In his speech have accompanied him all the members of his technical body and could receive 'feedback' of the staff.

Sergi Roberto, for all the changing room, has appreciated the work that comes exerting from November of 2021 when 'collected' to a Barça 'broken'. They have been many the curves that have confronted, but the players remain with the vicinity of the trainer of Terrassa, the support inagotable and the confidence showed at all times. Besides, the captain insisted in that the players also are 'culprits' of what is happening, a message that already had entonado Frenkie of Jong, Joao Cancel or Ronald Araújo after the crash in front of the Villarreal.
It has been the beginning of the end for the Barça of Xavi, but has asked that it keep the illusion in the next four months and that insist in competing and litigate by the trophies that remain in dispute, although right now it sound like something descabellado by the crisis of results. It was a message that repeated Joan Laporta after the training, accompanied by the 'heavy weights' of the club: Rafa Yuste, Deco, Soler, Bojan, Echevarría and Masip.
The message of Joan Laporta to the changing room of the Barça
The maximum Barcelona mandator has confessed to the changing room that "would not see a situation like the current with another trainer during these four months but yes with Xavi by his commitment and feeling culé", as they explain from 'Sportive World, and has devoted to promote to the players to how face the next commitments. The environment will change, probably, but from the club expect that it was a moment that propicie the union and maximum commitment by part of all in the Barça. It is the only form to surpass the 'varapalo'.
