There’s no getting away from the fact that Barca’s 4-2 defeat against Girona was down to the tactical ineptitude of Xavi - and that’s something that’s becoming a recurring theme.
Let’s take nothing away from the visitors to Montjuic though for they were fully deserving of their history-making win.
Given that Xavi and his back room staff would’ve been well aware of the expansive and positive way in which Michel has set up his team this season, Barca were far, far too open for long periods of the match.
This from a coach that’s been in the job for two years but hasn’t really improved the side in any way, shape or form.
