The new Messiah) of the FC Barcelona: Monster

FC Barcelona has finally made it: After a surprisingly tough negotiation crime of faltering football giant brings the legend Xavi home. The expectations for the 41-year-olds are huge. Can he meet them?

All those people who mean well, it was good to very with FC Barcelona is likely to be care less than one might be piquant detail to return home from Xavi Hernandez is still missing. After the euphoria is far too great about the fact that the legend will save this proud club now (not less expected) than that one wants to deal again with the dramatic financial situation of the Catalans. Known to be terrible. What is quite cute formulation in the face of debt close to the one billion mark.

Now, before it s back to euphoria and relief that debt needle pricks again in one of the gaping wounds of FC Barcelona. Of these, the club has several, however. To Xavi, they call him, bring home, the Catalans apparently had a release of five million euros to the Qatari giants (it will be even spoken) transfer Al Said. For a legend, this sum appears in a business (the football world market), which is completely caught up by earthly conditions despite all humility visions as a friendly service.

But the thing is just so: For the FC Barcelona, ​​which was anything but cautious in recent years with detaching and salaries, rather megalomaniac five million Euros now one no longer stemmed board. The deal with the legend, who could not fail threatened to fail. Because Barça have the payment clearly initially rejected, it said in Spanish media. Concluded the agreement came anyway. Thanks, Xavi! For the 41-year-old who absolutely to his home, really wanted to switch to his club, participated in the payment to his current employer, took half. The other pushed Barcelona.

Xavi answered the crisis issue

But do Xavi actually what he was getting into here? Of course, he knows that. He has a medium perform miracles. Barça crashed. Financially (see above) and Xavi Hernandezy. The Flagrant are currently best a footballing followers. Not only in the Champions League that could be in great pain might still endure, but also in the domestic league. Under the unfortunate coach Ronald Woman the team bungled by the Spanish stages, afforded it too often inconveniences that were condemned as embarrassment. But the question is: How much debt is really assign the Dutchman?

An answer will be Xavi. If he wants or not. Because a right to remain silent does not exist in the new responsibility. If successful, Woman is as exposed haphazard at the end. If he does not, the situation is getting worse in Catalonia. For, Xavi, if you will, the new Messi (as). Failure is not provided. Because a plan B, C, D, does not exist very likely. And if there was him, then he would certainly be too expensive.

The problem of the matter is: Failure is a (unfortunately for Xavi) not totally utopian scenario. Because the complications are enormous. Without the eternal superstar Lionel Messi, who studied in Paris St. German desperate for his good fortune, the club is different. A weaker. For a man who is always there and always a good to very good solution found itself in brisantesten moments that no longer exists. Memphis Delay, who was signed as a replacement, is a reasonable footballer. But not outstanding. And certainly not a savior. Even further away from Luck de Jong is that one even knows Playback times.

The gaping wound Messi

Curing this Messi-wound is the largest operation that Xavi now has to work. Means in his gigantic truth: He has FC Barcelona implement a new game idea. That he can, that he has ever been proven. Not as a coach, however. As a player, he was the brains of the legendary Wiki Take generation. Together with Andrés Invest, he orchestrated it for almost any opponent grueling passing game. The memory of the dominant periods were crowned among others with four triumphs in the Champions League, feed the hype and the expectations of the new, old man. But the question, and even concern that resonates: Can a brilliant strategist in the field, a brilliant strategist on the sidelines to be? His work in Qatar serves as little as resilient scale. While he celebrated there title and was playing a fine attacking football, but Qatar is just Qatar. And that means in football: Qatar is a developing country.

Well, so screaming, so scary, the presence of the Catalans is, so Xavi Hernandezy is the future. For as so often, the legendary Talentschmiede La Asia again brought players to start the delicate dreams of golden times. This is of course Pedro, who had provided impressive moments at the EM in the summer for impressive moments in the Spanish national team. And there is Gave, who is already considered a new miracle boy of world football. Both are still very young, 18 (Pedro) and 17 (GAVE) and both play in the central midfield. Like once Xavi and Invest. Possible comparisons should be prohibited. Dreams but not.

And front, there is an ANSI Fate. Also, such a promise. A man who can find very good solutions in Brian situations. Of course, a Messi is not. And will not be that either. At FC Barcelona, ​​where else, you know how unique your Argentine was. But hopes are not forbidden like dreams. However, the 19-year-old left outside already has a remarkable violation history. All those people who think it s good to the FC Barcelona, ​​which is likely to be aware. Xavi is there now (so he comes this weekend). And he will save them all. He must. Because failure is not an option.
