Celta Vigo defender Oscar Mingueza says Xavi is the right coach for Barcelona.
Mingenza came through the La Masia system before eventually leaving for Celta.
On Xavi, he told Sport: The team is very well coached, there is a very clear idea and he is a very good coach.
"It is very difficult to control and win all the games, but winning titles after going without winning for a while, and having Barca fighting in the Champions League, it is going back to what everyone wants.
"I think that having said that he is leaving has been something of a relief to the team and I hope for a good showing in the Champions League."
Mingueza also commented on his dust-up with Real Madrid attacker Vini Jr last month, It has been given more attention for everything that came out in the press. The only thing I wanted to tell him was that the slap wasn't necessary, that I just wanted to stop him, and that's it.
"I also understand Lucas, Nacho, knowing that there are those who try to distract Vinicius from the game but it was not my intention at all. It got heated and that's it, it's a topic that is closed."
