Xavi talks Fermin Lopez, Robert Lewandowski and Frenkie de Jong ahead of Granada

Xavi has been chatting to the media ahead of Barcelona’s trip to Granada in Sunday in La Liga.

The coach spoke about the match, Barcelona’s injuries, Fermin Lopez and why it’s so demanding being the manager of the Catalan giants.

Here are the best bits:

Xavi on Granada

We have important players missing but we are fine after two hard-fought wins. We face a difficult opponent, the most physical in La Liga, an opponent that will play a direct game with great offensive potential. We have to control their direct football.

Xavi on Fermin Lopez

I have said it several times: he is a player that I like.
