In addition to the ten mandamientos that Xavi Hernández established in the changing room of the FC Barcelona, the new trainer recovers a 'rule' to have even more control regarding the physicist of his footballers. The one of Terrassa does not want to leave happen any detail in the Barça and wants to have, at all times, a real update and 'to the day' of how are his players. His intention is to recover the good and old habits that has had the Catalan picture that have lost with the happen of the time.

Before it had announced the return of the fines (that it implemented Pep Guardiola and that 'neglected' after the exit of Luis Enrique), the meritocracia or that the players have to eat in the Ciutat Esportiva so that the club have 100% controlled the feeding of the footballers and avoid 'surprises'. Likewise, the newspaper 'ACE' has desvelado an extra norm for the changing room that recovers of the stage of Luis Enrique in the club, when he was footballer.

The Barcelona will have to go through the scale grieve arrive to the installations of the Sportive City, where will have to annotate his weight with the aim to have a register and do follow-up along the course. 'ACE' stands out that, from the club, "considers that a fault of rigour in this section can have also incidence in the high number of muscular injuries that drags the team in this start of season".

The current seleccionador Spanish was the one who implanted this measure, to weigh that 'comes' of the antecedent of Pep Guardiola that also showed to be an obseso with the weight of the footballers, believer that has direct effect with his exert and what can do in the field. Nevertheless, the one of Santpedor never 'forced' to his to go through the scale day after day. Instead, Luis Enrique himself preferred it and now Xavi considers that it is very hit, especially by the subject of the injuries.

It had been a measure that remained deleted after the exit of the Asturian. The players happened to weigh once by week or each fifteen days, in such a case. In any case, now will go back to do and the follow-up will be daily, like part of the big list of measures that has posed Xavi to recover the best version of the Barça in the field and like this can 'inject' his style.

Maximum requirement and without relaxations

The feeling that is leaving Xavi in his first week of trainings is that it does not want any error. All the contrary. It wants that the team was competitive and can contest the titles. Unlike the previous trainer of the team, Ronald Koeman, he happens of "this is what there is" and understands that, although there is not big stars, the staff is full of talents and that there is a lot of potential to carry out a season that has begun of the worst way, but that it is the sufficiently long to recover .

For this, the requirement has to be maximum and will not have grantings. The players will have to show that they are to the one hundred by one hundred and will not play if they are not it. The one of Terrassa like this has showed it with his norms or requisitosy will not go down the policeman when it knows that the Barça is living the most delicate moment to sportive level in a lot of years.
