Xavi has certainly laid down the law after arriving back at Barcelona, and not before time it must be said.
For far too long, a perceived ‘holiday camp’ atmosphere has pervaded, with, if rumours are to be believed, favouritism towards certain players.
That’s apparently going to stop immediately, and as a result the playing field will be levelled.
In order to achieve the set-up he desires, Xavi is believed to want to implement the following rules:
- Players must arrive for training at least an hour and a half early.
- Staff must arrive at least two hours early.
