Xavi urges the fans Barcelona always be compact. According to him, Pique has always maintained his attitude in the locker room.
“In pre-season I asked for unity,” Xavi said ESPN. “This is a time to come together: the squad, the staff, the management, the fans, the media. Whether you play or not, the only thing I ask of Pique is that he be an example in the locker room, and he is a great example. “
“I say this because he deserves it. He never shows a negative attitude (when not playing). He is an example as a captain, and the fans should know this.”
Gerard Pique is no longer a pillar of Barcelona’s defense after being almost irreplaceable before. The former Manchester United player has made just seven appearances in all competitions and has only started four times.
“I don’t know and I don’t care much,” he said Xavi to the question if Pique’s mistake against Inter made him the target of fan anger Boat.
“He is an example in the locker room and trains very well, that’s for sure. The atmosphere in the locker room is also fantastic. We have a great team, one of the best I’ve ever seen in his career,” he said.
