Xavi Quotes

Spanish - Athlete | January 25, 1980 -

There are two types of football - there's physical football and football talent.

Football Win Legacy Result You More

I spend the entire 90 minutes looking for space on the pitch. I'm always between the opposition's two holding midfielders and thinking, 'The defence is here, so I get the ball and I go there to where the space is.'

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.

England really is the birthplace, the heart and soul of football. If Barcelona had Liverpool's fans, or Arsenal's, or United's, we'd have won 20 Champions Leagues, hahaha!

Heart Football Soul Champions Fans

I'd love to play at Wembley. It's special for Barca - and for everyone in football.

Love Football Play Special Everyone

There are a lot of teams that don't want to play, that only want to defend against Barcelona, and that makes it difficult. We're always looking for the open space. A lot of times we'll face six defenders and four midfielders.

Space Looking Face Play Want Defend

I like to read the papers. I make my living from football, and I like to know what's going on.

Football Know Living Going Like

It will be difficult to finish my career here. I don't know if I am going to end it at Barcelona, although I would like to. I don't know what is going to happen.

I Am End Career Know Will Difficult
