Here’s how Xavi REVIVED a 94-year-old tactic and took Barcelona to next level. Again.
On January 27, Xavi announced he will leave his position as Barcelona head coach at the end of the season. In his firm opinion, this decision was meant to ease the tension around the club, with the manager himself admitting that he had given his best and needed to rest.
As a matter of fact, it WORKED! So far, Barcelona have played 6 matches, winning 4 and drawing twice. In La Liga, the team collected 13 points out of 15 possible, thus keeping the title hopes alive – there are still 12 Matchdays left until the end of the campaign, so they still have a mathematical chance to succeed.
The Blaugrana and some of its performers showed much more confidence than before Xavi’s words, and the coach himself became more relaxed and more courageous in his decisions, allowing himself things he could not have done before.
Today we’re going to talk about one of those decisions which could change Barcelona’s season for the better!
This is the Football Club channel and we’re getting started!

Hi football club channel
still not convincing at all this season his first was phenomenal
Is a 433 normal. With a pivot
Xavi took too long to do this change, Christensen as “pivote” has been mentioned for months, Xavi waited too much
This video ..is a reply to all who thought barca is nothing without messi suarez neynar..xavi is a good manager he deserves one more chance as a manager ..we have just started ..
last year they played Eric Garcia as CDM, and he did great.
off to the new season and Xavi didn't try any of his CB's to play as CDM, until this happens
💙❤️🔥✨💪🏻
He hasn't revived it pep does the same at City with stones as a libero only difference is City have a double pivot but this season even rodri has moved forward more
He got 14 out 18 points in 6 games
Sick of Xavi
Garcia was going to be that CDM solution
There is still a huge problem with the 3-2-5. The 5 players are too high up in the field leaving a huge gap between themselves and the two pivots. As a result, opponents can easily set up in a 4-4-2 mid block and block any ball progression. This was evident in the Getafe game during the first 10-15 minutes. FDJ was absolutely bullied since it was basically 4 vs 2 in the midfield. The 2 8s in the front 5 have to drop deeper to connect the midfield to the attack.
What are the chanches of xavi to change his mind to stay?
He isn't a failed manager mate
Heard this voice on multiple Football YouTube channels since 2020. Missed it a lot, great to hear you again
If barca can't sign a dm they can use Eric Garcia as a dm
You are a fool
He took Barca to a level. I wouldn’t exactly say NEXT level
So what was the 94 year old tactic revived??? You just came here and capped shit that everyone knows😒. Waste of my time😑.
this tactic is the worst. CDM should work box to box and if CDM wants to move forward, the CB and LB RB should follow together. if CDM moves to forward/backward early there's always in the middle. that's why FDJ should work hard to cover the gap.
I hope we win laliga and make to the ucl semis
Toxic fanboys cannot realize that players are not robots, and these “fans” want everything perfect, right now, winning every game and trophy. Xavi is a great manager, winning Laliga in his first full season as manager. Even Cruyff could not do that.
Yes genious. Very intellyjent.
Bro xavi just barely won one game and y’all are hyping him up ? SMH this is why Barca fans are always left disappointed
❤❤❤❤thx ourGod with u efisay ❤
Genius? Lol. Can’t even beat a big club
Barca should sign Nico Williams he is the only player in the world right now that can save Barca.
