After Xavi became the manager of Barca, it did inject fresh blood into the team, making Barça more aggressive on the road to the fourth, although this season's four are empty, after all, it belongs to the reconstruction period, can get the Champions League qualification next season, even if this season's success, in the configuration and change of the lineup, Xavi has made great efforts, but also gained a lot of surprises, but one thing is certain, stubborn Xavi, when the Barca lineup appears to be extreme, but still go their own way.
Xavi, as a player, is from the La Masia academy, and Messi, has different feelings for Barca, and after becoming a Barcelona coach, he is bent on his work and lets fans see the change of Barca. In terms of tactical configuration, Barca changed the slow heat and chaotic rhythm before. The situation opened, especially in the on-the-spot counterattack and short pass cooperation on the field, which really let the fans see the shadow of Barca in the previous heyday.
This is the biggest change since Harvey's arrival. But any coach has a honeymoon period, when Barca suffer a losing streak, the two-line battle is also declared defeated, the only thing to fight for is the Champions League qualification. This stage is not only an important period for the fight for the fourth place, but also a stage where Xavi continues to change the lineup configuration and tactical play, so that the players can work harder to integrate into it.
Laporta trusts Harvey so much that harvey has a lot of decision-making power when it comes to signings, a competence that Valverde and Koeman could not have obtained in the first place. It is precisely because of this that If there is any difference in the Barca led by Harvey, an important responsibility needs to be borne by Harvey. However, in the case of the extremes of The Barca squad, Xavi still seems to be going his own way.
Xavi's first strong signing after taking office was Ferrantores, who spent 60 million euros in transfer fees, at least for now, Ferrantores' performance is not eye-catching, although many fans still think that Ferrantores is still very young and has a lot of time to improve himself, but for Barca, whose primary purpose is to compete for the title, it seems that it is impossible to waste more time for Ferrantores.
De Jong in the recent period of time, suffered from the interference of transfer scandals, this kind of thing is not empty, since there are media outbreaks, De Jong's father also came forward to admit, it proves that in the choice of midfield, Xavi more trust Busquets, Pedri, Nico and Garvey, the so-called Barca urgently need money, just to cover up de Jong's not to be reused.
After Araujo's contract extension, in fact, Barca's midfield has gradually stabilized, the most important thing at present is the reinforcement of the forward line, in the case of Ferrantores is useless, Aubameyang is gradually aging, Fati can not return, who can take on the responsibility of Barca's attack next season. After making a choice in the transfer market, Xavi still set his sights on the Spanish players.
According to Spanish TV Six reporter lex Silvestre, Barca have rekindled interest in Morata, who may restart negotiations to make the Spanish striker a member of the Rosso Rosso.
Xavi for the choice of players, tend to localization of reinforcements, this is not wrong in itself, but also according to the current situation of the team and the squad situation to choose, to Morata over the years to go to various teams, the performance in the team synthesis, Morata's shooting skills did not meet the requirements of Barca, there is already a Ferrantores, is there also a Morata is hoping to create a frontless formation?
summary
To sum up, Xavi's stubbornness is reflected in the introduction and employment of personnel, each coach has his own coaching style, which is beyond doubt, but in terms of employment, it is also necessary to be flexible according to the needs of the team, in the case of the Barca lineup has been so extreme, Xavi still wants to choose among Spanish players, this kind of self-style approach, may make Barca more difficult.
