FC Barcelona’s 3-0 win over Atlético de Madrid, which came on the heels of finally moving past the first knockout round of the UEFA Champions League with a win over Napoli, have put a different perspective on Xavi’s time as manager.
Despite all the injuries and playing with a few teenagers in the lineup, Barcelona played with confidence and put the capital club to the sword.
Xavi announced he would leave at the end of the season when the team was reeling after disappointing results, but things have changed now.
There are many within the club and outside of it who think Xavi’s done a good job, and should be given another year at the helm.
