Farewell Xavi

Xavi's farewell press conference was today. He's headed to play for Al Sadd in Qatar.
"I'd like to announce that I'm leaving Barça after this season. The decision is definitive yet difficult. I think now is the time to leave, that's the way I feel.”
Got to see him a few years ago when Barcelona toured in the States. Most gifted professional I've seen in person in any sport.

In Qatar, he'll have to face the managerial wits of one Michael Laudrup.

He was nothing short of a genius.

Even Randy´s beloved Maureen the bus driver said yesterday in a special press conference (where he came out to speak only of Xavi):
´He´s one of the best players of the last decade, and deserved something he´ll never have, the Ballon D´Or.´

Who else thinks Jose said that just so he could rub in that Xavi would never win it?

Yeah, he's pretty good at pressing the Y and RB + Y, that's for sure.
