Barcelona manager, Xavi has come out to admit that the club is trying to emulate Girona’s style. This is coming after their humiliating 4-2 defeat in La Liga, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, his team clearly lacked effectiveness on the pitch, and the avoidable errors in defence is taking its toll on the recent results.
Xavi added that Girona being seven points ahead of Barcelona on the La Liga table is well deserved.
His words, “The match was even, it is decided by details. If Barça won today we would also have said that it would have been fair, I think we have shot 31 times. We have lacked effectiveness and perhaps the errors in defense have taken their toll on us. Even at the desperate end, we had it 3-3.
They have a proposal similar to what we are looking for. Girona has a lot of merit in what they are doing. They are the leaders of the standings and have a seven-point advantage over us. Much deserved. I think the work that both Míchel and the Girona players are doing is spectacular. Congratulate them.”
