Hehe, Who agrees with Xavi? He has insisted that the row behind the scenes at Barcelona between Luis Enrique and Lionel Messi will have "zero importance" for the remainder of 2014-15 and that is a normal thing.
Reports
surfaced that the pair's relationship was beyond repair earlier this
month, with the coach rumoured to be on the verge of the sack as Barca
pleaded with Messi to stay, although recent good results have lessened
the air of negativity around Camp Nou.
Defender
Jeremy Mathieu broke the silence from within the Catalan club by
confirming on Thursday that there was an incident in training which saw
Messi and Luis Enrique engage in a heated argument.
However,
veteran midfielder Xavi has insisted that there is nothing abnormal
about a coach and a player falling out temporarily and suggested such
moments of tension between colleagues can happen hundreds of times over
the course of a season.
"[The row Mathieu spoke about] was a
normal situation in a season and it often happens when people work
together," he told reporters on Friday. "People want to complain, but we
should not give it more importance, it happened in the heat of the
moment.
"The row subject is closed, Barca are together -
everybody is motivated and, honestly, we are together. Jeremy's words
are not affecting us, we found a solution to that incident and moved on.
"The
importance attributed to the row is zero. This is not the first time
such a thing has happened, it happens with a lot of team-mates, it's
just what occurs when people work together.
"We all want to win,
there are sometimes stressful situations that happen during the training
sessions - that happened and will happen 200 times."
