No coach comes in and changes all the players at once. This off season he has offloaded Sagna, Cabalero, Clichy, Zabaleta, Jesus Navas thats 5 players already do you expect him to offload 11 at once

Before Guardiola came to Barcelona how was Xavi doing? Xavi was actually on his way out because the previous coach told him he was too small to play football
You can lie oh. Before Guardiola became manager, Xavi had just won Euro 2008 and was voted best player of the tournament.

If I ask you what is the lie now, you will start stammering like an Arab commentator after Ronaldo scores a goal

Read below
"Rijkaard did not believe in me. He wanted our game to be based on a superior physical level. He believed that it was the only way to be at the same level as the top clubs in Europe," Xavi told French newspaper L'Equipe.

"Four or five years ago, I was [deemed] terrible and useless. I was Barca's cancer! A player 1,70m tall was simply impossible."
Xavi Hernandez has admitted he was close to leaving Barcelona for Bayern Munich in 2008, ‘but then we appointed Pep Guardiola…
“At Euro 2008, I was told the club wanted to sell me. Real Madrid were winning and us, nothing,” he recalled.

“I go to the national team knowing that if a good offer comes in, the club will sell me. I spoke to my agent and there was an offer from Bayern. Karl-Heinz Rummenigge wanted me.

“But then we hired Guardiola and I had a great tournament. Pep told me not to move, that he couldn’t imagine the team without me, and I’ll enjoy it. I was captivated.”

Barcelona can never sell a player who just won Euro player of the tournament. On the day Guardiola took his first training session, Xavi was the best player in Europe. So stop telling us stories like he was a nonentity before Guardiola. This is how you lied to us that Guardiola tiki-taka style influenced Spain National team when Luis Aragones had won Euro 2008 with tiki-taka before Guardiola started as a manager.

Can you make up your mind, You claimed Barca wasnt going to sell Xavi, Xavi said Barca was going to sell him

Xavi claimed the previous coach told him he was too small to play for Barca

Xavi told us he was shopping for a new club and Bayern actually wanted him

Xavi told us Guardiola came and convinced him to stay

Xavi Hernandez has admitted he was close to leaving Barcelona for Bayern Munich in 2008, ‘but then we appointed Pep Guardiola…’

The former Barca midfielder eventually departed Camp Nou in the summer of 2015 but told Marca that he could have gone to Germany a full seven years earlier.

“At Euro 2008, I was told the club wanted to sell me. Real Madrid were winning and us, nothing,” he recalled.

“I go to the national team knowing that if a good offer comes in, the club will sell me. I spoke to my agent and there was an offer from Bayern. Karl-Heinz Rummenigge wanted me.

“But then we hired Guardiola and I had a great tournament. Pep told me not to move, that he couldn’t imagine the team without me, and I’ll enjoy it. I was captivated.”

Xavi elaborated on the situation at Barca around that time, when the days of success under Frank Rijkaard were coming to an end.

“I played all but one game, which was against Murcia, when I came on and scored late on,” he continued.

“But it’s funny, if you Google it you’ll find a lot of ‘Rijkaard didn’t trust Xavi.’ No! What happened was the dynamic of the environment was negative.

“Everyone wanted us to have a strong double-pivot midfield. They wanted it like the French, with Patrick Vieira and Claude Makelele. They didn’t want us, small and technical.”

http://www.football-espana.net/53968/xavi-%E2%80%98nearly-left-2008%E2%80%99

Xavi, 32, is widely regarded as one of the world's best midfield operators, but felt as though Rijkaard did not value his talents due to his diminutive stature.

"Rijkaard did not believe in me. He wanted our game to be based on a superior physical level. He believed that it was the only way to be at the same level as the top clubs in Europe," Xavi told French newspaper L'Equipe.
"Four or five years ago, I was [deemed] terrible and useless. I was Barca's cancer! A player 1,70m tall was simply impossible."

So what is the point here

Barcelona coach didnt want Xavi again because he felt Xavi was too small,

Barcelona were trying to trade Xavi off

Xavis agent was already in talks with Bayern

Guardiola came and told Xavi he was th core of his plans

I have no problem except your attempt to paint Guardiola as the making of Xavi.

Barcelona can never attempt to sell Euro 2008 Player of the Tournament even if mugu Rijkaard had wanted to sell him before.

The lies you are spinning here are akin to a new manager joining Man City, using Aguero to win league and then claiming he made Aguero just because Guardiola wanted to get rid of him last season. Some dickryder will then come and tell us that manager made Aguero and point to Guardiola trying to get rid of him as proof.

This is similar to your lies that Spain used Guardiolas tikitaka format to become successful when Aragones had already implemented tikitaka to win Euro 2008 before Guardiola became manager.

Stop telling lies and riding Pep dïck.

How do you know Barcelona cant sell him, when the player involved said they were and he was already in talks with other teams

You must have many problems if that is your problem

Xavi said this himself

"Four or five years ago, I was [deemed] terrible and useless. I was Barca's cancer! A player 1,70m tall was simply impossible."

Meaning before Barcelona he was deemed terrible and useless because he wasnt big enough. If you still have further problems then take it up with Xavi

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Griffon:
Once upon a time, KDB was deemed lazy by some sections of Chelsea fans and media, but we all knew who was cooking up those smelly lies.

Xavi could have suffered the same fate. Rijkaard who wasnt a too big fan of his at the time, could have painted an ugly image about Xavi.

A sudden turnaround shouldn't imply Fraudiola made him, the little man has always been a genius, one that wasnt appreciated.

Chelsea have submitted a €100 million (£88m) offer to Juventus for Gonzalo Higuain, according to reports in Italy.

The Premier League champions are desperately trying to sign a new striker after losing out to Manchester United in the race for Romelu Lukaku, while Antonio Conte has informed Diego Costa that he is no longer part of his plans at Stamford Bridge.
Tuttosport claims that Conte is furious with Chelsea’s hierarchy over their failure to land Lukaku ahead of Jose Mourinho’s side, who completed a £75m deal for the Belgian on Monday.
And to make amends, Chelsea’s board approached Juventus 10 days ago with their proposal to sign Higuain.
