Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez is trying to turn the page after his side's 2-3 defeat against Antwerp in the Champions League and is focused on his next La Liga encounter against Valencia.
"Xavi's team does not have a game pattern," howled the Catalan newspaper 'Sport', normally a diehard cheerleader for Barcelona. "It is disoriented, the players constantly make childish mistakes and, on top of that, they are vulnerable in defence. In other words, nothing works. Nothing at all."
Another defeat on Saturday against 11th-placed Valencia and, for sure, the pressure will rise even more for Xavi and his players. Barca go into the match in fourth place, seven points behind Girona who close the 17th round of La Liga on Monay against 12th-placed Alaves.
Valencia possible lineup: Mamardashvili (GK); Correia, Mosquera, Diakhaby, Gasiorowski; Foulquier, Guillamon, Pepelu, Perez; Lopez and Duro.
Barcelona possible lineup: Pena (GK); Kounde, Araujo, Christensen, Cancelo; Pedri, De Jong, Gundogan; Raphinha, Lewandowski and Felix.
