so me and a few friends were discussing this but we think xavi has ruined gavi’s goal scoring? because at la masia we all saw what he can do but now it feels like it’s been beat out of him
people are mad that he didn’t shoot that one chance but i get it because if he did and missed xavi would’ve been on his ass for not passing, even though no one else made the run to help him, and it also feels like xavi is just making him recycle the same passes to gundo (and frenkie) instead of going forward himself which we know he can do
idk i’m not usually one of those people that think that xavi is stunting gavi’s development but when he continuously asks for goalscoring midfielders yet gavi seems to not be allowed to play like we know he can it’s starting to annoy me
I don't think Xavi ruined it tbh because it's still very much there. He's already scored 4 goals this season with club and country all different from each other. One a header, one a gorgeous voley, one an amazing strike and one where he did what she should to get the ball in the back of the net. So the goalscoring is still there and so is the variety in it. I think the problem these days has more to do with confidence rather than him no longer being capable of finishing. Like how he could've taken his chance after he absolutely annihilated Zubimendi (that would've been a goal for the ages 😭😭) but instead he passed it and the chance was wasted. Now that I think is on Xavi partly because he should encourage him to shoot more and they should work on it together in training. As for the last chance, I think he could've done better but the finish itself wasn't that easy and the goalkeeper closed the angle for him. I genuinely don't think any of our forwards would've scored that. I think he just needs to work on his confidence a bit rather than the finishing itself.
As for him being asked to pass it to Gundo yeah I noticed that too 💀 I don't know wtf Xavi is trying to do there but reducing his freedom like that is actually insulting to his talent. Gavi is probably our most balanced midfielder with him being equally capable in both defense and attack so using him for his defensive work rate only is a fucking shame. He's much more than that. I wish Xavi would just let him play like he did in the game against Madrid where he had the freedom to roam around both in defense and attack he has all the ability to do so. He's literally so good. Seeing him constantly winning the ball yesterday just to pass it to Gundo like he can't do more was so annoying to me. Let the boy do what he does best please 😭 he's only just come back to midfield and has been our most consistent player this season so far so I don't get what was happening yesterday. And notice how our build up was nonexistent when it was reliant solely on Gundo who wasn't even in his best form? Like dpmo 😭
