It does not be necessary to give bandazos in function of the results. We have to be believer and improve in what we are doing. The history of the Barça says us that this is our model. I have it very clear: we do not go to change of DNA by a party. It is necessary to insist. The results will arrive. If no to me, to the following trainer", sentenced Xavi.
