XAVI Hernandez is said to have reached an agreement to become the next Barcelona coach. Reportedly on Thursday, November 4, 2021, Xavi Hernandez will be introduced as Barcelona coach.
However, a number of reasons show Xavi Hernandez is not suitable to handle Barcelona. So, what are the reasons?
Here are 5 reasons Xavi Hernandez is not suitable for Barcelona:
5. Take Control of the Changing Room
Xavi Hernandez is predicted to have difficulty controlling the Barcelona dressing room. Because, he will work with former teammates when he was active as a Barcelona player.
They are Gerard Pique, Jordi Alba, Sergi Roberto and Sergio Busquets. Of course, Xavi Hernandez’s homework is to subdue the egos of the four names above who are senior Barcelona players.
4. Hot Relationship with Joan Laporta
Xavi Hernandez is said to have a bad relationship with Barcelona president Joan Laporta. Because, when the Barcelona presidential election in 2021, Xavi Hernandez collaborated with another Barcelona presidential candidate, Victor Font.
If Victor Font is elected president, Xavi will become Barcelona coach. However, Joan Laporta was the winner and the Barcelona coach at the time, Ronald Koeman, was retained.
Therefore, if the results obtained by Xavi Hernandez with Barcelona were not optimal, do not be surprised if Joan Laporta immediately kicked the 41-year-old coach.
3. Lack of Experience
Before dealing with Barcelona, Xavi Hernandez only had experience dealing with a Qatari club, Al Sadd. For two years dealing with Al Sadd, Xavi Hernandez entered the category of success by presenting seven trophies.
However, Xavi Hernandez is inexperienced in dealing with European clubs whose pressure and quality of play are certainly much heavier. So, able to adapt quickly, Xavi Hernandez?
2. Adaptation
Xavi Hernandez had to adapt hard to the lineup of players that Barcelona currently has. Because, a number of players such as Memphis Depay, Martin Braithwaite, Luuk de Jong and Ousmane Dembele do not really know the philosophy of Barcelona’s game.
Therefore, even Xavi Hernandez, who lacked experience, took a long time to adapt to the names above.
1. Excellent Assistant
For this point, it is not the reason why Xavi Hernandez will fail at Barcelona. At this point, it is a solution so that Xavi Hernandez can fly in Barcelona.
Instead of bringing in assistants from outside, it’s better if Xavi Hernandez relies on insiders. There are a number of names that Xavi Hernandez can use as an assistant. These names can be an informant for Xavi Hernandez.
They are Sergi Barjuan, Barcelona B coach who is now a caretaker. In addition, there is also Alfred Schreuder who previously served as assistant coach to Ronald Koeman at Barcelona.
So, willing to bring Barcelona to success, Xavi Hernandez?
