The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Xavi Hernández
- I’d love to be faster. Physically I’m limited, but I’ve survived by using my head.
- 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
- There are two types of football – there’s physical football and football talent.
- 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.
- 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.
- Favourite stadium? I have good memories of my CL debut at Old Trafford, spectacular atmosphere. The Theatre of Dreams, as they say.
- In the last 15 to 20 years the best central midfielder that I have seen – the most complete – is SCHOLES
- In futsal, you see whether a player is really talented. You notice the small details in quality, class and tactical understanding.
- I’m a footballing romantic just like Johan Cruyff. We like football that is attractive, attacking and easy on the eye. When you win playing like this it’s twice as satisfying. I’ve always played attacking football: my footballing ideals are very clear and well defined. I’ve grown up at Barcelona with that style and that’s the one I like. I think it’s good to win like that, by taking the initiative right from the off.
- 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 Hernández, widely regarded as one of the greatest midfielders in football history, is a Spanish football manager and former player. Born on January 25, 1980, in Terrassa, Catalonia, Xavi emerged through the youth academy of FC Barcelona, La Masia, and made his first-team debut in 1998.
Renowned for his vision, passing accuracy, and ability to dictate the tempo of a game, he was a linchpin of Barcelona’s golden era, winning eight La Liga titles, four UEFA Champions Leagues, and numerous other trophies.
Xavi was equally instrumental in Spain’s international success, playing a pivotal role in their consecutive UEFA Euro (2008, 2012) and FIFA World Cup (2010) victories. After retiring in 2019, he transitioned to management, first with Al Sadd in Qatar, where he achieved significant success, before returning to Barcelona as head coach in 2021. Xavi’s tactical acumen and commitment to Barcelona’s trademark playing style have revitalized the club.
