Xavi has bemoaned the lack of revel in within the cutting-edge Barcelona squad when they conceded a final-minute equaliser away at Granada on Saturday.
Barça had long past beforehand in the game way to Luuk de Jong (of everybody), however after Gavi became sent off for a reckless address things speedy unravelled for the Blaugrana.
Having piled at the strain for the final ten minutes, Granada got their aim within the 89th minute thanks to Antonio Puertas.
Speaking after the game, Xavi lamented Gavi's crimson card and the multitude of clumsy errors Barca made in the course of the game:
"It's a shame but it's all the way down to our very own errors," Xavi stated (via ESPN). "It's a loss of experience. The purple card weakens us, however we've lost because of errors.
"We've dropped two hugely critical points. It's down to us, no longer the opposition. We lost stupid balls. The 2nd 1/2 became there to be controlled. We can't pass domestic satisfied after that. We're indignant. We ought to be self-important.
"We didn't know the way to manipulate the sport. We started out dropping lower back when we had to kill the sport off. We ought to create greater to win. We've made mistakes. If we want to grow, it needs to be now."
The draw leaves Barca a whopping 17 points adrift of league leaders Real Madrid, and greater crucially, simply out of doors the Champions League qualification places.
Due to their astonishingly bad economic state of affairs - the club are currently in over £1bn of debt - Champions League qualification alone has turn out to be the minimum requirement.
Xavi and co. Will be hoping that the current signing of Ferran Torres could be the spark wished for a push for a top four end. The forward was signed for £forty six.7m from Man City (nope, we haven't any idea how they are able to find the money for this both), and is set to return from a metatarsal fracture very soon.
