Xavi Hernández attended the media before the League match that the Barça team will play at the Mestalla this Saturday from 9pm.
The Barça coach was asked about the reasons for the elimination of the Champions League and did not hide that now they must fight to win LaLiga and the other competitions where they still have options. These are his most famous phrases:
1
“We have to change our minds, turn the page and think about LaLiga. We are fighting for the title. We are pineapples in the locker room and in Valencia there comes a time to react”

two
“In the Champions League it has not reached us, but we have to fight for all the competitions we have left: LaLiga, the Cup, the Super Cup and the Europa League”

3
“The bump in the Champions League is important, everything has happened to us, but we can still have a good season and we have to show the pride and character of the team.”

4
“I noticed the total confidence of the club in the project. Now we have to endure the criticisms and keep working. I think the results will come and if not, another coach will come”

5
“He didn’t give us a chance to qualify, but not because of physicality. We drew with Inter at home in the 92nd minute. We attacked in Milan and in Munich until the end. We competed, that’s the way forward”

6
“If Nico is an option for January? Yes, why not? We will talk to him. There is still time for the market and we will have a break to work on it. We will decide how the team is doing”

7
“I see the clause so that Nico’s game is not good. He’s ours. We trust him a lot and we don’t want him to harm us. It’s a decision we made at the club”

8
“Pedri is right, in many moments we need a pause and calmness. From the inside we have analyzed the matter at Bayern and we know, it is something we insist to the players”

9
“There are a lot of things to improve and we need to find Lewandowski more, although we are trying to give all the tools to get into the area and finish”

10
“We believe that Valencia will be an aggressive and intense rival, they are fun and dynamic, even if it seems that Gattuso will be defensive, it will be a fun match for the spectators”
