One of the best safe players in the world, Xavi, did not stay aside and publicly criticized the Madrid club and coach Jose Mourinho.
Wearing a shirt, the Spaniard insisted that Real's decision to grow as long grass as possible at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium in Madrid to hinder the Catalans' favorite fast game is not honorable for the club.
"I think people like to watch beautiful football on good grass, not on grass that is too high or very hard." - said Xavi. - "It's a shame that there are no clear rules for the condition of the field. And after all, it's 2011."
He continued: "It's also a shame that lately we talk very little about football. I like playing against Real because these are very important matches. These challenges create great excitement."
