I don't actually watch many shows. I will either watch movies or football. I enjoy to watch games in the Premier League and will also watch movies a lot as well. That is how I relax.

More quotes by Xavi
I’d love to be faster. Physically I’m limited, but I’ve survived by using my head.
Xavi
I pass and I move, I help you, I look for you, I stop, I raise my head, I look and, above all, I open up the pitch...The one who has the ball, is the master of the game...Thats the school of Joan Vilà, of Albert Benaiges, of Johan Cruijff, of Pep Guardiola
Xavi
To me Paul is a role model. He is the best midfielder I've seen in the last 15 or 20 years.
Xavi
I think Barcelona and the Spanish national team have been good for soccer because there are a lot of teams that come up playing from the back : with the goalie, the defense, moving up a defender to midfield, playing attacking soccer. I think fans want to see that. They want to see beautiful soccer, a spectacle, and Barcelona does that.
Xavi
I like to read the papers. I make my living from football, and I like to know what's going on.
Xavi
Some teams can't or don't pass the ball. What are you playing for? What's the point? That's not football. Combine, pass, play. That's football - for me, at least.
Xavi
Maybe one small regret is that I never got to play with Paul Scholes - but I was never going to leave Barcelona and he was never going to leave Manchester United.
Xavi
In futsal, you see whether a player is really talented. You notice the small details in quality, class and tactical understanding.
Xavi
In England, footballers are respected more, the game is more noble, there's less cheating. Every Spaniard who goes loves it - and comes back a better player. If I had ever left it would have been to England.
Xavi
Like so many of the players, I started at La Masia at the age of 11. I can't ever imagine not playing for Barcelona, let alone not playing soccer for a career. I don't ever want to play anywhere else.
Xavi
If he continues like this then I think Messi will be the best player in the history of football.
Xavi
I've no regrets at all, but I still think at times that I would have loved to play in England. You live football over there it's a great culture. People respect you more it's more difficult to find respect in Spain. There is more criticism here.
Xavi
There are two types of football - there's physical football and football talent.
Xavi
Iniesta is easily Spain's most complete player. He has everything.
Xavi
Leo [Messi] is the best player of all time - better than Pele, Maradona or Cruyff. There have been some great teams in history - Pele's Brazil, Cruyff's Ajax, Sacchi's Milan - but in the past 20 years this Barcelona team is the best.
Xavi
In football, the result is an impostor. You can do things really, really well but not win. There's something greater than the result, more lasting - a legacy.
Xavi
The atmosphere generated by the fans in Celtic's stadium for our visit was the most impressive I've ever witnessed. The grounds of Liverpool and Manchester United are good and the hostile feeling of playing against Real Madrid in the Bernabeu is also excellent, but the atmosphere against Celtic was the best.
Xavi
Favourite stadium? I have good memories of my CL debut at Old Trafford, spectacular atmosphere. The Theatre of Dreams, as they say.
Xavi
I would loved to have played with Scholes. He plays the game the way it should be played and at his peak he was the best midfield player in the world.
Xavi
I'd love to play at Wembley. It's special for Barça - and for everyone in football.
