    And he continued: “As a coach, you suffer 3 times because they make you responsible for everything. It’s not fair to say “League Xavi”. This is a team effort between President Matteo Jordi, the coaching staff, the players and everyone else.

    And he stressed: “This league is very important to me, because Barça’s training puts a lot of pressure on you. I was criticized a lot, but I was excited. There were difficult moments: relegation from the Champions League and the Cup, but we got together with the players and everything changed from there.

    And he concluded: “The worst moments are when you feel that they do not believe in you. The Catalan club environment is very harsh. The solution to improve the team was to change the system, put in 4 linebackers and avoid rebounds, and I think that was one of the most important keys to the season.
