“Me? How can I enjoy the moment? I’ve been here for 4 months, and 3 of them have been very difficult. Coaching is a very unforgiving job. It’s not easy, but we do have some separate moments that we can enjoy a lot,” Xavi said after the Osasuna game.

“I’m a perfectionist, I go home with a thousand things on my mind. The situation the club was in was very hard, but we’re trying our best to be able to enjoy things again.”

When Xavi took over, Barcelona were sitting in ninth place in La Liga. In his first months, the coach had to deal with multiple injuries and COVID-19 cases that made Barca’s already-bad squad situation even worse.

However, he found the way to turn things around and now the Catalans are third in the league and on an unbeaten streak of 10 games.
