Barcelona coach Xavi says he feels fully supported by the club ahead of their clash with Valencia.
Barca go into the game on the back of defeats to Girona in LaLiga and Antwerp in the Champions League.
But Xavi, when asked if he’d considered quitting, replied: “No, man, no. I am very excited, it is time to be consistent, to be calm, to gain confidence. I believe more than ever in the project, we have a fantastic union, yesterday I spoke to Deco. Things are being done very well and I think we are halfway to making a great Barça.
“What misses me is that at the first corner people get off the boat. Perhaps it is the second curve and more than ever you have to believe. Alarms always go off here but everything is at stake. We don’t learn: last season we were going through the same. Why can’t it end up being an excellent season?
“We have a dressing room that is wonderful. Everyone is disappointed when things don’t come out. But they are to death with the coaching staff and the club..
“I have never felt alone in the first place because I have my coaching staff, the president and my friends. I do not feel alone: neither Laporta, Deco, Yuste nor before Jordi or Mateu have failed me. From within we are positive.
“The same is repeated as last season. In October we wanted to burn everything down. I am surprised, five months ago we were in a rúa and on the first corner we are the same.”
