It captivates me that, listening to Xavi is like listening to Cruijff and the same as listening to Guardiola. Same concepts, positions, travel with the ball, free man, wingers open, etc etc. hope to see him soon at Barca.
And also what football means to him. He says the ball should be a treasure, a gift to cherish, not a bomb to be afraid of. What beautiful words. Felt like Cruyff was there speaking them.
Yea - all so simple. Yet 99% of coaches in the US are doing their own systems:) Many would say that this style of play can only be achieved with the special players. Yet, if we continue playing kick and run, we will never develop these players. Small guys like Xavi and Iniesta would be cut from MLS academies of today:)
Quite evident that he follows Pep's playing style so much, i remember Busqi, Iniesta, Pique and all the Barca veterans saying that Xavi's mind is made to read and understand games, which is what makes him such an amazing midfielder, and that back in 14-15, his teammates were pretty sure of him managing Barca someday.
Xavi’s philosophy is a combination of Cruiyf, van gaal, Sir Robson, Rikjaard, pep and his own philosophy as a true la masia and Barcelona student then master. Xavi was a better player than pep , let’s see him as a manager in Europe soon, hopefully Barca
Xavi probably knows and understands the best of Cruyff, Guardiola and Luis Enrique's tactics and game philosophy. He could be a legendary manager for barça.
Xavi is the real deal, this man will die with his ideas. In football you have to be brave and this man is ready for FC Barcelona. Vamos Xavi, Visca el Barça!! #XaviNow
I've been a barca fan for almost 2 decades now. I have witnessed Ronaldinho's Bernabeu ovation, Messi's meteoric rise, Henry's sublime finishing and Iniesta's understated genius yet Xavi remains in my favorite all time player. His genius is second to none
"The most important, the most beautiful, the most precious thing in football is to have the ball and to attack and dominate the game with the ball." Guardiola's style...
it's actually rinus michels' style.. from him, it was passed down to cryuff.. from cryuff to la masia and pep... and now from la masia and pep to xavi..
Watching Xavi explains tactics, makes me so happy and is like he is explaining my style. I thank my God for letting me wo witness the beautiful football of Barca. I don't want my team to win without beautiful football. I know he can brings this to Barca and I trust him
You can just tell that he wants to play after the same main principles as Guardiola does... and he understands the tactical side perfectly from his days as a player. It seems like he is also able to teach and explain that to his players.
Usually these videos are very basic tactically. Don't get me wrong, they are very good, well produced videos, but ones that explain very basic tactical concepts. (Like Mourinho explaining a winger tracking the opponent's full back) But man, this one is in another level! Xavi explained everything that is his Posicional Play. The free man concept(or the 3rd man run) explained in different situations, and different types of numerical and qualitative advantages that his team looks to achieve through Posicional Play. Brilliant video!
Cruyff laid down the foundation, Pep and Xavi are the top of the crop that Barca has produced since. If only Barca wasn't managed wrong, we could've seen a few rising stars... fortunately, now they have players like Pedri (albeit coming from Las Palmas) and Fati (did come through La Masia).
@@victorrweyendela5345 Think about your statement for a second. He coached Al Saad to become an amazing team that was miles above the rest. What Xavi does amazingly is explain complicated schemes and make them really simple. Barca will be a very interesting team to follow more so than before.
This is how barca literally played under Guardiola. Make the field as wide as possible while 2 midfielders stay between the line of the oppositions defense and midfield. When you watch barca play under Koeman, barca have them all at the line of the defense, with no room to play
one of the footballers i miss watching the most since he retired, a player who knew what was around him at all times, head always on the swivel, unbelievable passer of the ball and made the game look so easy/beautiful to watch, i wouldn't be surprised if he becomes one of the top coaches on the planet with the footballing IQ he has, one of the best midfielders ever.
guessing your talking about style of play or attractive football? because xavi has no business being named with those managers in terms of managerial achievements :) erik ten hag and nagelsman are some more mangers you missed out too btw
Before I press play I must let everyone know I’m going to study this beautiful body of work for hours on end. the maestro himself sharing his wisdom is priceless
@@jjryan1352 according to Victor Font, Xavi would've started Puig if he is manager. Additionally, he's known Puig since he was a little kid. Bottomline, Puig would definitely be getting playing time under Xavi.
11:08 That last player can be Araujo perfectly, he is very fast and one of the best 1v1 center backs, for me the best below Van Dijk. The other CB that rises up can be Eric Garcia, because he has more technical ability, or even a player like De Ligt if Barça can buy it in one or two years.
His coaching style is very similar to pep and I would really like to see him oversee Barcelona in the near future, and hope that is tactics really works well in European leagues too
@@theislamicgambit4476 Xavi Pep or Luis Enrique, same style that has made barcelona great! All of them following cruyffs idea thats what we want not just pep
After seeing so many great players fail as coaches I was almost sure that Xavi would too. It seemed like the better the player was the worse they are as a coach, but now I see that he is definitely not one of those cases. He has an incredible understanding of the game and the importance of having a rigid philosophy. I enjoyed watching this from beginning to end.
yes i think he'll be like zizou. One of the best players ever and one of the best coaches ever, not many people created the same legacy as coaches and players
Not anymore wirh stupid money ruein it been lazy when boxers mma get hurt more damage more don’t earn much that’s why I stop watching it to much disgusting money on there weekly wages when it’s not tuff sport when it was back a day it’s gone very soft lazy no motivation cuz off the money that’s why I stoped watching and playing gone tuff business boxing mma how they fight for the family’s cutting weight etc still earn less den regular footballers do
So amazing to see how Xavi is evolving from his own playing at Barca. Thank you for this great segment! Learned so much from a great player and now great manager!
the thing about his tactic is that, the players, especially the goalkeeper and the backs, must have a very good vision and composure to break through the high press and find the free man from the build-up in the back. so, his gameplan will require if not world class players, a superior squad in that one particular competition. the only teams that i think xavi can implement this type of tactic to are Man City, Liverpool, PSG, possibly Juventus, Milan and Inter. no doubt its a good tactic, but if you have a shit squad, this tactic will most likely fail against any team.
Un auténtico genio Don Xavi Hernández. Increíble la de situaciones que tiene imaginadas para sacar la pelota jugada y ofrecer soluciones al pasador. Es como un jugador experto de ajedrez que siempre se anticipa a lo que va hacer el rival. Incomprensible que no esté ya entrenando al Barça, la única explicación es haber apoyado a Víctor Font en las elecciones.
I can literally understand what he's saying from the beginning to the end. Al-Sadd players can understand him and they lift trophy. So, if he managed Barca, but Barca failed to lift a trophy, the club and fans don't have right to blame him.
I understand what you're saying, but a coach is more than well planned tactics, and playstyle. Is also being able to bring the best out of each player, being able to motivate them, prove them that they have worth in the team, a motivated and happy team, will fight for the badge and the coach, not only for the money. That's where some good coaches fail. Let's hope him the best
Maybe the best midfielder of all time with the ball, almost impossible to take it from him, such were his skills to protect it, like a father protects his kid.
some of the philosophies I already I understood but Xavi explain it very clear which makes it more interesting especially the third man and how to solve the low block. This video is like having a ball, a treasure
Never been a Barcelona fan but I love Xavi! He’s a true genius and just because of Xavi, I want Barcelona to better themselves. I want everybody to know how much of a GENIUS Xavi is!
Simple, smart, and at first glance, a great tactic. Xavi's brain is really a few steps ahead in the game. Can't wait for the day he'll be back. That's our biggest fantasy!! After Qatar 2022, he will come. Edit: He's here!!!!!

Welcome home master... to exited to see if you can recover barca now, and i'm sure you can do something to bringing back our barca in the right line #vamosbarca
As much as I am a real supporter I love seeing Xavi showing his vast skills learnt from Barça and pep that’s amazing man.. wishing plenty luck and hopefully we get to see him in Barça
As a United fan, I'd honestly love to have him on the touchline at Old Trafford as soon as physically possible. But seems like his heart is probably set on coaching Barca one day and I can't blame him
Xavi is interested in coaching in the Premier League, but it will be a long time before he does that. I do imagine him being the United coach in the future though
The fact that he explains everything in detail without keeping too much secrets shows how passionate he is about football. Although he surely kept some details hidden just in case. And he always mentions many other good players from many clubs, he really watches most of the games from any league and he pays attention to individuals. Also i like that he has different options based on the opposition. Many managers just focus on their own style without adapting to the opponent's style. Or they completely focus just on the opposition like Mourinho. But Xavi seems balanced in all aspects.
This is why midfielders are genius managers. They know how to dominate and control the midfield, they know how to keep the ball, they know how to regain the ball, they know how to pass the ball, the know how to build an attack sequence or a defensive sequence. If you look closely, all the great managers are midfielders: Cruyff, Zidane, Xavi, Pep, all midfielders.
This was very intriguing, it's surreal how he manages to pick different types of teams apart enforcing complete dominance. I would love to be blessed by his knowledge in the art of coaching 🙏🏾
A little mix of johan, van gaal, rijkaard, Guardiola. I love it! I can’t wait for him at barca. He’s going to have gavi Pedri fati de jong just imagine that
I feel like Chelsa have been doing this this season and the example game was when Reese James had what…. 2 assists and a goal or something like that. My instinct reaction
Yeah i think so too I dont know if he refers to wingers as RM's or LM's and inside midfielders as CAM's or regular CM's...i know the pivots are the 2 CDM's in kante and jorginho
@@jaytripathi5996 Still, that's nowhere the same as being able to comprehend what Xavi has to say in first person, it's just something different. The subtitles are more like a compensation than an alternative, lol.
I enjoy when managers have a specific tactic they want their team to play. I wonder what tactic is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants Manchester United to play? You don’t see the specific style of play.
@@amarnuar674 High fullbacks. Floating CAM with 1 inside forward to play the half spaces and 1 winger to stretch with the full backs (depending on the side). No9 with a highwork rate, that's clinical and he wants to play with a CDM we just don't have 1. He has an obvious style of play but since Ronaldo came in, we can't play it because we can't press from the front.
This man understands the game in a way few people can. It's what made him an incredible midfielder and I believe will make him an incredible coach. Hope he succeeds at Barcelona one day (Hopefully soon).

In "take the ball pass the ball" a pep's barca documentary. Dani Alves also says Xavi will be the 3.0 (1st Cruyff, 2.0 Pep).
He is talking like he’s been a coach for 20 years

Same here. Xavi’s brain was something else

It looks like Cruyff's dream team tactics
Learning from xavi for free. What a treasure to learn about football and enhance footballing education
Welcome back to FC BARCELONA legend! With you it’s “More Than A Club” again! 🔵🔴🤩
Maybe the best midfielder of all time with the ball, almost impossible to take it from him, such were his skills to protect it, like a father protects his kid.
About to become Barcelona manager 😱
The 3-4-3 formation is definitely from Cruyff
Cruyff played with a diamond in midfield, but they were allowed to rotate positions a lot
No I guess. Cruyff played diamond in the midfield.. Xavi likes it as wide as possible to open up the play. Cruyff had it more compact.
Cryuff played a 3-4-3 diamond not a flat 3-4-3 or in Xavi's case it is more like a 3-2-4-1.
The formation was Cruyff the dream team
It work well
some of the philosophies I already I understood but Xavi explain it very clear which makes it more interesting especially the third man and how to solve the low block. This video is like having a ball, a treasure

This is why midfielders are genius managers. They know how to dominate and control the midfield, they know how to keep the ball, they know how to regain the ball, they know how to pass the ball, the know how to build an attack sequence or a defensive sequence. If you look closely, all the great managers are midfielders: Cruyff, Zidane, Xavi, Pep, all midfielders.
This was very intriguing, it's surreal how he manages to pick different types of teams apart enforcing complete dominance. I would love to be blessed by his knowledge in the art of coaching 🙏🏾
A little mix of johan, van gaal, rijkaard, Guardiola. I love it! I can’t wait for him at barca. He’s going to have gavi Pedri fati de jong just imagine that
Xavi is like a pragmatist. His tactics, his ideology are properly suit our players and team. I just hope he come to Barça and make us proud again💙❤️
I feel like Chelsa have been doing this this season and the example game was when Reese James had what…. 2 assists and a goal or something like that. My instinct reaction
Was about to say the same thing. I feel like Chelsea play slightly more direct football though.
Yeah i think so too
I dont know if he refers to wingers as RM's or LM's and inside midfielders as CAM's or regular
CM's...i know the pivots are the 2 CDM's in kante and jorginho
So does he mean a formation which looks like this?
Wng. St. Wng
Cam. Cam
Cdm. Cdm
Cb. Cb. Cb
Gk
Or Chelsea's regular formation under tuchel which looks like this
St
Cam. Cam
Rm. Lm
Cdm. Cdm
Cb. Cb. Cb
Gk
Lol? Tuchel's play style is the opposite of Xavi's philosophy
I came here from RabonaTV, and boyyy listening to Xavi talking about tactic is a bliss
These are the times when I wish I knew Spanish..
Lol I’m half Spanish
There are english subtitles too bro.. 🙂🙃
@@jaytripathi5996 Still, that's nowhere the same as being able to comprehend what Xavi has to say in first person, it's just something different. The subtitles are more like a compensation than an alternative, lol.
I rarely watch these kind of videos... but my god listening to Xavi is engaging and I'm glad I took the time.
I enjoy when managers have a specific tactic they want their team to play. I wonder what tactic is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants Manchester United to play? You don’t see the specific style of play.
Ole tactic. Press the ball high, asking every player to be clinical, and all must have high workrate. Thats all. Basic instruction. Maybe..
@@amarnuar674 High fullbacks. Floating CAM with 1 inside forward to play the half spaces and 1 winger to stretch with the full backs (depending on the side). No9 with a highwork rate, that's clinical and he wants to play with a CDM we just don't have 1.
He has an obvious style of play but since Ronaldo came in, we can't play it because we can't press from the front.
Myyyy coach 🤍🖤🤍🖤🇶🇦🇶🇦
So proud of him
Made our team play beautifully and with such swagger
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks for the great video! It's a video what I was looking for!
This man understands the game in a way few people can. It's what made him an incredible midfielder and I believe will make him an incredible coach. Hope he succeeds at Barcelona one day (Hopefully soon).
He will be a great coach, he is a genius
Xavi is the only hope for the best and for the future of Barcelona but Xavi is one great manager that I can listen all day.
Man i was waiting for this one... love the content guys keep it up!
Xavi Hernandez makes football beautifu,classy and sophisticated like chess
Come back Xavi we want you 🙏❤️💙
I love how determined this man is, back when he was a player and now as a coach you can see he knows exactly what he is doing
I thought I was pretty good tactically. But this video (I'm only 3 minutes in lol) is showing me that there are many levels to this game
GENIUS... one of the best midfielders to ever play the game and I hope he can be one of the best coaches too
Welcome to Back XAVI #FORCABARCA
This video is actually so fucking inspiring and I can't believe we get to listen and see this for free.
