More quotes by Xavi
If he continues like this then I think Messi will be the best player in the history of football.
Xavi
Favourite stadium? I have good memories of my CL debut at Old Trafford, spectacular atmosphere. The Theatre of Dreams, as they say.
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
In futsal, you see whether a player is really talented. You notice the small details in quality, class and tactical understanding.
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
I’d love to be faster. Physically I’m limited, but I’ve survived by using my head.
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
I like to read the papers. I make my living from football, and I like to know what's going on.
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 the last 15 to 20 years the best central midfielder that I have seen - the most complete - is SCHOLES
Xavi
I liked the Paul Ince and Roy Keane partnership Manchester United had. They would have been my team had I moved to England.
Xavi
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.
Xavi
The way I see it, Messi is the best player in history. He is the one who changes the course of games he's the best. There is no comparison in my view he's the world number one and by a margin.
Xavi
Celtic, like Barcelona, are more than a football club. Our clubs are a symbol of a culture and community that has not always been made welcome in their respective countries.
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
There are two types of football - there's physical football and football talent.
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 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
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
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
