‘I know Sheikh Jassim so well, he would be a GOOD option for United!’ | Xavi | Man Utd v Barcelona

Press conference with Barcelona Head Coach Xavi ahead of their Europa League knockout stage second-leg tie against Manchester United.

He talks about what he expects from his side in order to beat the one of the best sides in Europe right now, he says he knows his line up for the match and how he will set the side up but the main aim whoever is on the pitch is to compete, how the team has to respond to the absence of Gavi, Pedri and Dembele, encouraging Ronald Araujo to bring the ball out of defence against United, whether he wants to start fast against United or if he's happy for the team to bide their time, what has changed for this Barcelona team as they try to emerge from a difficult period in Europe and how big an opportunity it is to show their progress, intensity with and without the ball, whether Sergi Roberto can be used in a wide position, his reaction to club president Joan Laporte saying the priority has to be La Liga, controlling the emotions surrounding this game - saying all the pressure should be in him and the players should just go out and enjoy themselves, says he has a good relationship with the Qatari sheikh bidding to buy Man Utd, how much of a worry it is that Robert Lewandowski isn't scoring as many goals at present, whether Barcelona can handle the stage after losing heavily in Liverpool in 2019, talks about former Real Madrid players Casemiro and Varane's importance to the United side, (translation stops at this point x3) talks about the scandal surrounding allegations of payments to referees and why he thinks the Sheikh would be a good owner for United after working in Qatar for 6 years and whether he might meet his former manager and current Man City boss Pep Guardiola before the game.
