The World-wide of Russia finish ahead of time for the Spanish selection, and after the turn home touches to begin to take out conclusions. One of which has commented the perspectives of present and of future of the 'red' is Xavi Hernández, that in an interview for the newspaper 'ACE' has sincerado on the situation that surrounds to the team.

For the one of Terrassa, is evident that there were things that did not work along the championship, but does not consider that it have to have a revolution in a team that already works. Although in Russia saw to a flat team and without ideas, against Portugal himself worked the bet by the touch, and the errors attributes them more to the loss of confidence and to the fault of a reference that remained by the way.

"Lopetegui Had it all very controlled, was a good leader, have people that says it to me, all the world was happy with him and to two days of the World-wide signatures by the Real Madrid. That if it had been the Barcelona or the Betis think the same. Sometimes, clear, like the people identifies me with the Barcelona seems that I go against of the Real Madrid. But it is not to go against the Madrid but it is the feeling that you break the harmony. I said it the next day of his course and reiterate me now. It is a decision precipitated, erroneous and that the group did not digest well", explains.

"I do not have any doubt that the way is the tiqui-taca that begin ten years ago"

"Why reason announce it before the World-wide? Independently that it was the Real Madrid or another team. Expect you, are you engaged by the cause and demand to the players that are it. You owe to give example in this. I do not understand it. Rubiales Acted well, the Federation has to be above the people. I do not go to hide that have good relation with Rubiales, but if it had made a mistake also would say it, but in this sense think that acted well", has added.

Further of the hits anímicos, the Catalan throws in fault something more than atrevimiento in a World-wide that describes as too conservative: "it Is missing talent. Reluce More the physical and the defensive. For me it is a penalty. The people could carry more by the talent, by the technical quality…See to the people giving a lot of passes of security, but does not dare to do more things. It does a lot of the academic, not to complicate the life, not to risk to lose a balloon…Think that it is necessary to work more the talent that the physicist".

"I do not have any doubt that the way is the tiqui-taca, that begin ten years ago, even with Camacho and Iñaki Sáez and Of the Forest, although especially with Luis Aragonese. The idea has to go by here. We would make a mistake a lot if now we went by another idea and another model of game. Spain has to to go by the way of the footballers that there is. Isco, Busquets, Thiago, Asensio… People that likes them have the balloon, presionar up, that likes them be leading. It is my idea, but understand that there are other ways", warns on the same line on the Spanish selection.

Xavi still will not be seleccionador

In addition to 'wet' on the possible solutions, also has wanted to turn off some fires by his previous statements, standing out that it did not criticise to Isco but it urged him to be decisive some metres more advance, or admitting that it understands better that anybody the bitter feeling of Andrés Iniesta in his goodbye.

Another of the questions on the table was his possible candidature to the bench, but although it fills him of illusion, still is too prompt: "First that I do not see me ready, second that do not have the carnet of seleccionador and third that is not the moment. I do not see me still, I have to do some practices, have to prepare me well, form my staff, a lot of things that do. It does not have felt. That it go out my name to one likes him, but is precipitated totally".
