FC Barcelona | Today Javi will speak
The Barca rollercoaster continues to spin non-stop and things have sped up again. The realistic statements of the Barça coach in the preview of the match with Almeria became an impetus for him just 3 weeks after he was confirmed in this position. Laporta is now considering firing him.
After the win over Almeria, Xavi was asked about the reaction of the Barca president and Deco to the fact that he did not go to support the team, contrary to what usually happens. Mr. Barca did not want to add fuel to the fire. The match had just been won, not without difficulty, and the “hot” moment was inappropriate.
On Friday afternoon, already in Barcelona after a trip from Almeria, Xavi tried to find an explanation and meet with Laporta, but The Barça leader invited him to meet at the end of the season. No one at management or office level has opened their mouth publicly, but the coach will speak again this Saturday at a press conference that has generated high expectations.
Depending on what Javi says or how he expresses it, the roller coaster may already be moving at an unstoppable speed towards who knows where. Barcelona fans are in complete disarray.
What should Javi answer?
Barça will host Rayo Vallecano this Sunday (19:00) at the Estadio Olimpico Luis Companys. The Barça team will mathematically secure second place, and with it qualification for the Spanish Super Cup, if they defeat the Barça team. Inigo Perezwhich, although very close, still do not have guaranteed permanence.
In the press room, the match will fade into the background. Current events rule, and what interests and worries now Civil War’ It seems to have exploded in Can Bars.
The coach, logically, will be asked how he lives these hours, how he feels and whether he understands that Laporta feels betrayed by his statements. Xavi was very realistic and warned about the difficulties that the Barca team will face next season due to financial difficulties. Nothing new that Kule’s long-suffering fan didn’t know, but the president seemed very embarrassed to hear this from his coach.
Deco should also come into play
There are more names in this story than Laporta. Like the board members, although they wanted to project an image of unity, it is common and notorious that some of them do not support Xavi.
Deku’s role is also important. He was “caught by a storm” in Portugal, but no one knows that he is the leading actor. After the 0-2 win over Almeria, Xavi said he was looking forward to planning the next season with the sporting director. Surely his name will also come up at the press conference.
What about the players?
Xavi is the one who will give a speech this Saturday at 13:00 in the press center of Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper., of course, with a large media presence. It will be after the Barça team’s training and the first 15 minutes will take place, as usual in previews, with the doors open. It is scheduled to start at 11:00.
It will also be interesting to see if the players show their support for their coach in any way.
