It is like an advisor telling their boss that something is wrong, and instead of focusing on and fixing the problem, they get fired instead
Sounds like a certain tech-bro. Only thing missing is LaPorta calling xavi a P-dow.
Yes, and sadly that is a reality in most business organizations to this day
Sounds about how every company runs. Which is why fuck companies
Sadly that's how most cos are
Typical corporatism
Miami's midfield will be insane.
Xavi is going to let out all his anger on the MLS 😂😂
@@Adam-l2g Many ex barca players went to play there because of Messi. Dude might be 44 but he's definitely still better than most MLS midfielders
Maybe Tata's days are accounted for 😂
Xavi to Miami as coach
wait till iniesta pops out of nowhere
Im a Barca fan that wanted the club to go with Flick (months ago when Xavi was leaving on his own accord), but shameless how it happened.
do you want flick ? he won with bayern because bayern had A) already very good players and B) because he was able to animate said players to go above and beyond, tactially speaking Flick is horrendous like you could see during his germany stunt, he kept second guessing himself and fielding players the average joe would have ripped out his hair from
i wish barcelona the best but i would go with Xavi over Flick forever especially right now
@@felixmustermann790 Flick had great players as the german coach as well, however he still lost. The difference was that Guardiola gave him a great team at Bayern.
@@MrMakabar That was 8 years ago and most of those players are long gone, let's not exaggerate.
I don’t believe in Flick. He really only won the sextuple with Bayern because the rest of the teams were weakened due to Covid. I don’t believe he’ll bring the team to the same level as Xavi and he’ll get sacked within a season and a half.
There’s only so much Flick can do
Dwight Schrute: “Don’t be an idiot, it’s for the severance.”
I'm convinced that is the reason they fired him.
Xavi is probably won't take the money. He loves the club and they are taking advantage of that.
Xavi already openly said he won’t accept any severance pay. Someone who loves the club this much deserves so much more respect.
@@yeezyskeezy8039 then they're just incompetent
Xavi forfeit any money other than this season salary. Only the assistant coaches got their severance money.
The toxicity and cynicality present in so many 'elite clubs' makes me wonder why anyone would ever want to manage them.
Probably because they make more money and can compete for titles.
Watch how many good coaches take on United and Chelsea @@tomh6588
RDZ
Truly don't want to come across as a twat however it's cynicism not cynicality.
Agree with your point.
@@tomh6588 I know but it is shameful how some clubs treat their own players and staff
I'll never leave you, Zealand
That's what she said months before she, indeed, left him
This same club sacked Valverde when he won back to back titles and reached two UCL semi finals. This is hardly that aggregious other than Xavi is a club legend. At least now he can escape the shitshow that is Barca
I don't know how to word what I'm thinking other than, I think logically it's not as agregious as Valverde, but emotionally it's catastrophic. They went out of their way to shit on a club legend, a La Masia alum just for not drinking the kool-aid it feels like. I'm a Madrid fan and I'm pissed off for him and Barca fans.
He crumbled in the ucl so frequently in a way Barcelona never had before
@@classonbread5757so ? As a barca fan he won us 2 la liga titles and was 1st when he got sacked . Stop judging managers on ucl performances if he’s winning trophies domestically
@@justinstewart-ek9tlBarcelona is used to being UCL contenders , domestic success just wasn't enough
He got sacked because he fumbled the bag in humiliating fashion two times in UCL. One against Roma second against Liverpool.
This seems like an FM glitch where the board automatically fails goals you didn't even have until the day of.
it is not a glitch. FM is just too real
Zealand making me livid all over again 😂. Just when I had a moment of peace.
“Might as well have told him to f*ck off” 😂😂
I'm fuming about the betrayal. I'm gonna puke next time I see Barcelona brass say "Mes que un club". It's going to be hard to support Barcelona after this. I'm a fan of the club because players like Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets, and so on got me into football.
barca quit being mes que un club a long time ago since they stopped the deal with unicef and endorsed qatar on their shirt😂
@@franze4 Yeah, I agree, but at least that can be chalked up to going broke. Misleading, abandoning, and insulting a club legend like this is simply inexcusable.
@@franze4 Truth.
Mes Que Un Club was ALWAYS a load of garbage. They were able to avoid getting a sponsor because they had a rigged TV deal that meant that they got 10 times as much of the domestic TV revenue as the small teams. They (along with their corrupt siblings Real) still get 2 times as much money as the 4th place team. For reference, the PL winners get a bit less than 1.5 times what the BOTTOM team does.
They have also been found guilty of child trafficking in youth transfers, and of illegal state aid. The only thing more obnoxious than their sanctimonious claims is the ignorance required to believe them
Mes que un club is about Catalan independence even if they've sold it like it means they are moral and accepting... That's just the marketing campaign...Mes que un club is about Catalans believing their culture and their way of life is better than the corrupt Franco "club del estado" (aka Real Madrid) who they still feel cheated them out of being their own independent state. As soon as they made good money they became the very animal they hated.
Pulled the ole "well you quit, how about your fired"
It absolutely was text book, I'm leaving you, nooo don't leave, i'll change, fine i'll give you one more chance, great oh by the way, now i'm dumping you!
Damn at 12:57 i actually felt personally called out for all the failures i was ever responsible for in my life. What a wake up call, i think you just changed my life Z
Really loving these vids. No punches held, straight to the point and well presented. Keep them coming Z
Pep guardiola lasted four seasons in this club and left exhausted, and that is with their golden generation
I feel like this decision is gonna really screw Barcelona even more now. The manager market is already scarce rn, so for Barca to sack Xavi after they wanted him to stay WHEN HE WANTED TO LEAVE THEIR BASKETCASE CLUB CUZ THEYRE A BASKETCASE, no top manager is gonna want to go to Barca in these conditions. There’s no stability, the board can’t be trusted with anything they say CLEARLY, the financial situation is cooked so no major transfers, their club is truly done for rn.
To be fair, like half of the top clubs in the top 5 leagues are sacking their manager it feels like. With lots of other managers feeling gettable.
We got flick now
What they did to Xavi was messed up but the reality for teams like Barca and Madrid are no matter how bad things get, most top managers would love the opportunity to manage these clubs.
@@Sasquatch10if it was that obvious that any manager would like to take a job of that magnitude, then what about Bayern? Why would they have so many problems finding a manager if it everyone wanted those jobs?
Managers want to succeed. Of course their context defines what that means, but for barca and bayern titles is the floor of success, and in the state they are right now that looks harder and harder to achieve.
And for the managers that couldn't succeed in those sinking ships, that would just become a blemish on their resumes.
@@AlbRomano You're not wrong, but i do think there's a level of difference between Bayern & Barca. Even though Bayern are currerntly a better team than Barca.

Zealand's my favourite football TH-camr, it's the dynamism, he's can play anywhere on the pitch, he can be funny, insightful, informative and angry. Judging by this video, he can be all those things at the same time. Truly impressive.
I never knew how to put it into words about the Barcelona we grew up with and liked vs what it is now and you’re so right
"who wants to coach this team?!" Zealand asks?. I'm gonna guess Flick
Flick because Laporta is basically Pini Zahavi 's fuckboy
on a bayern fan channel, a few bayern fans explained that even tho hansi flick won the treble with bayern, he was more of a zidane where he could get the best out of players but he wasn’t really a good tactician and players like kimmich questioned him. and when he left, he failed at germany because he couldn’t motivate them the same or something. so as a barcelona fan hearing that now, im kinda nervous.
A manager can either be a good motivator or a tactician. You say he's neither?
@@classonbread5757 don’t be dyslexic
@@franze4 I'm a Barcelona fan too and I was just shocked. This seems like a recipe for disaster. The only thing he is good at is to be the motivational coach yet he isn't even consistent on that? 💀

@@classonbread5757 oh mb i misunderstood you💀but yeah, im a bit worried to say the least. hopefully he can bring motivation to the same team he destroyed a few years back😂
Good for Xavi, next year looking really bad for barcelona, he gets to leave while its still semi decent
Wtf you talkin about xavi only could take us so far. Keep in my mind that the fisr half of the season barcelona were nothing short of disappointing. Lost all 3 classicos so no chance to win a title and one was a cup final for a trophy.
Speak now you clown 🤡🤡🤡 7/7
Next up on Zealandism: The Underdogs Win El Baldico 🎉
Xavi should take charge of Espanyol, set up great youth recruitment there and take revenge😄
He should take over Barca B, divide the club so it's seperated from the FCB first team, then conquer European football.
My average FM reaction when I get sacked 😂
Xavi would never coach Espanyol...his culé brain is too hardwired to hate them. However, how funny would it be if he coached Mallorca and had to play against Barça in the Spanish supercup in Saudi? 😂 That would be a dish served cold.
Its so fascinating that Hansi Flick is getting the job. You would have figured they would hire the upcoming coaching prospect.
Yes Mann.
Pini Zahavi is why... That how we got Lewandowsky and that's how we got the sanction from UEFA taken away to allow us to play UCL during the whole Bartomeu debacle. Hansi needed a job as did the Joaos who are both a pain in the ass to their clubs but Jorge Mendes manages Ansu, Lamine amongst others...one hand washes then other.
"Its still real to me damn it"
"I love Barcelona. It's full of bars... and celonas!"
The “you fucked up” hit hard gah damn
I've never wanted a club to implode so much in my entire life ..
you want us to implode again?😂😢
dont worry, Tebas will never allow that to happen
What do you think you are watching for the past 5 years?
@@RobaMostarRoba Tebas is the reason Barca is imploding...
@@tygrayson4750 yeah naughty Tebas forced your club to spend 400M on 3 flops and to massively overpay every player and harass them about salaries, its also his fault 36yo Lewa will earn 32M per season next season lmao
It was useful to have my romanticized opinion of Barcelona, as an American, get punctured by finding out about how awful, both financially and personally, the people in charge have been for the last decade plus.
I think Barcelona are literally "too big to fail," like, they'll never do a Depor. But things could really blow up in their face very soon, because their leadership is just atrocious.
this is the most emotional I've seen Zealand ever
I've been a real Madrid fan for all my life and always tried to look at barca as just and fair rivals
but from seeing them treat these club legends this way, THROUGHOUT history btw! this is nothing new! they sell everyone like they don't give a shit about them, and i do realize we've messed up with club legends before, what happened with casillas still breaks my heart, but he's made up with the club, and ramos left on his own Accord!
this is just exposing to me that Barca only cared about the money, while saying they are the best in the world, and now that they can't beat the horse, they're scrambling
Laporta was determined for Xavi not to leave in June, sees the calendar getting closer to the end of May
I don't know how closely you're following this, but to me it's more short-sighted results more than anything to drive the decision. The reason to quit was said after an unfortunate defeat to Villarreal at home in January. From then on the hunt for a new manager started, so talks with Flick were already on their way during the 3 months he was expected to leave. Better results and slight hope for Champions league next season after almost beating PSG made them more keen to keep Xavi and convince him to stay. The 4-2 loss against Girona to lose the 2nd place spot (temorarily) set off the alarms again. That's why I think Laporta and his crew are more volatile than anything else. When things seem to be bad jump ship and pray for the next one. The talks with Flick just resumed in the last few weeks before sacking Xavi and making it official.
I personally think it's a good thing he leaves and it's unfortunate the people who run Barça didn't learn much. He came in to save us from a 9th place, europa league-bound club to save champions league, win the league the next year and only go into europa again due to unlucky group stage. And this year he finished 2nd to a seemingly unbeatable Madrid (Champions league finalist BTW) and still beating out the new threat Girona became while losing both direct matches. In any other scenario it would be an amazing accomplishment by most teams, but Barça have such high expectations of the team that even that's not good enough, which I think is a good mentality to have except we have to account with the major financial debuff we're going through. That's the main thing the club board control and it's the main thing holding us back from making effective signings. Instead of shifting the blame on themselves, they use Xavi as an escape goat.
I always thought it was too soon for Xavi to come, I'm not happy the way things ended in the end, but I hope he follows through with his word and is open to coming back. I want him to take time away from the immense pressure that comes from being a Barça manager and be free to experiment at a smaller club, much like he did when he started in Qatar.
Manchester united fan here, so obviously not biased.
'Part of the best side for barcelona in the last 25 years'.
Its slightly insane to say this, but thats somewhat underselling that side, arguably the greatest ever.
This is how villains are made. Barca just made Xavi a villain. Xavi will absolutely come back to haunt Barca in the future
Love the message and the Forward Madison kit!
Xavi comes from a family of Espanyol fans and was in their academy for a hot minute
you´re like the doppelganger of goose from top gun lol
"Insubordinate and churlish." Laporta, probably
So encouraging that no matter what field you work in, someone in a higher position can make dumb decisions with 0 accountability
Zealand’s barce’s bubble is bursting
Conspiracy theory: Laporta always wanted Flick and knew that flick wanted to join. Flicks agent was trying to get a high salary so Laporta agreed with Xavi that he would rejoin to put pressure on Flicks agent to drop the salary. Once Xavi was rehired flick got nervous and told his agent to agree to Barca’s demands. Xavi was in on it and his because of his love for the club agreed to pretend to rejoin to help the club hire Flick.
What a mess. I feel bad for Xavi
You're great orator Z. chills with the PG13 'you fucked up'
world of football just gets dirtier every year
Love the Forward Madison kit Zealand ...
And yeah Barca is crazy
I used to think the same about Real and Barcelona, but at least in the past decade Real has been run amazingly well. Barcelona is a club from the past.
its the same with Erik ten Hag, who rejected a job offer by Bayern because of beeing granted time to build up a legacy only to have the new boss who gave that pledge have negotiations with another trainer before the last game of the year...
And then he wins the only el baldico that matters and somewhat saves this horrible season and still gets sacked.
I'd love to see him join us at Milan. He could lead a revolution at Milan and lead us to another Scudetto.
I also wouldn't mind if he replaces de Zerbi at Brighton. I've grown fond of Brighton after their insane 2022/23 season and I don't want to see them drop even further than they are now. It'd be nice to see a good experienced, title winning manager come in to replace de Zerbi.
Girona would also be cool. I love to see players/managers get screwed over by the club they've been loyal to all their life just for them to turn around, join a rival and do even better, however the Girona manager spot is pretty secure rn.
And Girona actually have money, unlike Barca. Also when Pep leaves Man City or retires Xavi would be front runner for the City job providing he does well in Catalonia, but not for Barcelona, for Girona.
It isn rumored that Pep will come back to Barça in a more Sports director role when he finishes with ManCity.
Girona love their coach so I doubt they'd get rid of him unless he decides to go on his own.
I'm unsure what's going on with DeZerbi because I hardly follow the PL but it'd be a nice change for Xavi and kinda funny to see him be yet another Spanish coach in the PL... Imagine if La Liga and Spain wasn't such a shit show? The league they'd have if they just kept their talent at home.
I see lots of moustache content and nowhere near enough running content
It would be disgraceful even if he wasn’t a club legend, but the fact he’s Xavi makes this inexcusable.
There's a conspiracy theory that talkfcb mentioned, that maybe laporta wanted this all along. That he didn't actually expect xavi to change his mind about leaving, and now that interview is the excuse he was looking for to sack him
5:43 You will never believe what I found in Zealand's room
Xavi: "I'm quitting."
Barca: "Please stay, babe. We've been 'us' for so long but you've just come back. There's so much more ahead of us, babe."
Also Barca: "You know what, babe. F**k off, you're DUMPED."
Zealand's very existence is such a juxtaposition. Man looks like he's from 1930 with the manly stache. Where his work sees him featuring in videos only *certain* people will ever get to see. Yet, his current setup looks like he's in his childhood room of his parents. Still, respect the stache. I trust he's having an excellent weekend.
As someone being born and raised in Barcelona, it saddens me to have to agree woth almost everything you said. Luis Enrique's treble, which led to the reelection of Bartomeu, is the worst thing that has happened to this club. The money we got from Neymar sent us (somehow) spiraling into bad governance, and then the Spanish regulations, combined with the pandemic and the need for a new stadium put the nail in the coffin. Out of all the things you've said, I only think you're wrong when you say we're not the same club. Yes, we have fucked things up, but we keep consistently producing our own world class players. Lamine, Balde, Gavi, Cubarsí, Hector Fort, Fermín... not even talking about Ansu, which would have been world class without his injuries
i just got finished watching highlights of Domincan Lebron (this random time in 2015 when lebron only had a mustache and looked hella hispanic) and come to this and its uncanny
Laporta is asking, begging, pleading, with all the strength of his heart to be impeached (because this could happen . Barcelona is still a club with fans who vote).
And if that happens, I'll have a good laugh.
Honestly, super surprised this happened... I am 90% sur this is the end of the barca we all know.
they made him wave 15 MILLION of compensation too...
This is odd. First Xavi announces he's leaving at the end of the season, then Barcelona ask him to stay until the end of the season, then they fire him, and he's a club LEGEND. Crazy
Been waiting for this video since the news dropped
What about Wayne Rooney getting hired as Plymouth Argyle Manager?
I guess they would rather play in league one
Has he ever done well as a manger
@@GodfatherBoxSetonly derby and that’s relative he didn’t actually win much he just did better then expected
Plymouth was somewhat lucky per se with the dissolution of Bury FC, taking their manager and eventually him being replaced by his assistant. Plymouth has one of the lowest budgets in the league and is currently investing in infrastructure, unless they took a risk on a lower league manager, Rooney's probably one of the best options available with championship experience
Judging by the last picture I saw of him. we finally got the answer to the question 'who ate all the pies?'
Idk why anyone would want the Barcelona job anymore atp after what just happened
I'd take a couple of millions guaranteed salary and a premium seat in spanish stadiums to see barca lose.
Well seems like Xavi wanted to leave anyway so good for him, find a better home
Huge Barca fan, but this really sours my love for the club. The board and president sucks, we are under investigation for alleged match fixing, and now they fire a legend in Xavi in this manner! If it wasn’t for the fact that Barca and Real get the most money from TV revenue, Barca would be playing in the second division next season. Barca fell to its knees long ago, but now it lies in a field of its own manure.
Tis the season of manager sackings
Joan Laporta is the emperor with no clothes
As a barca fan, i can comfortably same we won't even make top 3 with this kind of decision making
let's be honest. as much as I'd love to see it as a real madrid fan. the ground would have to swallow up barca's entire squad for them not to finish in the top 3. i bet they could even do it without a manager.
They'll be fine...Madrid without the Barça rivalry makes less money overall. Florentino will literally take over with a mustache and a wig if he has to just so that El Clásico doesn't die. He knows the reason why PSG can't ever win UCL is because they have no competition at all. Without Barça, Atletico and the few behind them Madrid could never compete or make as much money...who wants to go watch Madrid play against Valladolid or Elche?
Speak now clown we’re not just top 3 we’re 7/7 🤡🤡🤡
Was waiting for this one since the news broke
Z is spitting gold bars
Laporta just really wanted Xavi to get paid, he is just helpin out a friend.
Me waiting patiently on the United fa cup final win video. Then me also waiting on the ten hag sacked after winning the fa cup video.
Why did I feel like Zealand was gonna Cry tho?
This is why I root for Barcelona SC in Ecuador; so I can say I root for A Barcelona, not THAT Barcelona (also they’re honestly a lot more fun and play at a pretty high level in South America)
Are we sure Laporta is not Bartomeu in disguise? He is for sure following the destroy Barca blueprint his predecessor laid out.
Speak now clown 7/7 🤡
For every news that drops about Barcelona I understand why Guardiola only signed 1-years contracts with them. The board are a bunch of clowns.
No wonder he had to take a sabbatical after managing them for 4 years.
Laporta be like : Don't leave bro! I have a speech!
Xavi: Okay
Laporta: F you
I was waiting for this since yesterday lol
The real tragedy is you will struggle to find someone who loves that club like Xavi.
Is there some competition for the most incompetent ownership in Europe going on?
Ah yes expected video for the Xavi situation.
Wonder if Zealand is gonna take a peak at what's happening with Inter.
Average Laporta moment lol
We might see vítor rogue on the pitch now, looking at the bright side, other then that, No benefits in kicking Xavi out the Club
I couldn't hear anything you said because this sexy mustache was taking all my attention, mate.
🏳️🌈?
Negreira isn't growing your success my dude 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Now Barcelona will follow the 8-2 strategy.
HES SO ANGRY HE IS CRYING 😂
It is worst time to be a Barca fan.
Did Xavi negotiate his severance package the 1st time around this year and gets double now?
Would be fitting.
btw, Sevilla's manager is known as Quique Sanchez Flores. Not just Quique Sanchez.
Zealand you've articulated at the same time both my interest and admiration for Barcelona's identity (as an American fan of the game) and my incredible disgust of how it feels like people in the highest seats of power in clubs (and honestly companues in most every field eight now) are treating those who have helped establish and build the seats they sit on.
Barcelona is bigger than Xavi of course. But I cannot think of a more point blank example of what Barcelona is than Xavi. Tossing him away like this is disgraceful to say the least.
Thank you for your thoughts and for being able to put into worss some of my feelings.
Well done by Barcelona
Zealand with the Forward Madison FC Jersey!!!! Go Flamingos!
Love the forward Madison jersey
At least pealand finally admits ges a varca fan
I teard up 😢
Honestly, barcelona's season was afwul, specially the first half, so it was justified the manager change, but talk to him into continuing, take a photo like they are all friends, and a month later fire him for basically telling the truth is a disgusting joke
I wouldn’t be surprised if Pep had been approached by Laporta to take over from Xavi after next season.
I’m stunned any manager of any standing even gave them the time of day.
