'Ten Hag has changed the face of United’s team! He's doing a GREAT JOB' | Xavi | Barcelona v Man Utd

Press conference with Barcelona manager Xavi Hernandez ahead of their Europa League knockout tie against Manchester United.

He talks about what he expects from the match - saying it sees two teams in good form meeting and will be intensely demanding, whether United are a "Champions League level team", whether he feels under pressure given the financial circumstances of the club and their elimination from the Champions League, countering the threat of Marcus Rashford, what he thinks of United after having the chance to sign for them and playing at Old Trafford many times, the fact the winner of this tie will probably be favourites for the competition, whether he thinks that if the team played in the first half of the season at the level they are now they could still be playing in the Champions League, says every game is a major challenge for them as they prepare to face United as well as leading the Primera League, addressing critics of the way he has built his side on strong defensive qualities, whether he says Rashford as one of the most dangerous players in Europe right now, Man United's pursuit of Frankie De Jong and how the player has reacted to the move not going ahead, says it's always important to win and also to prove themselves on the European stage again, says a club like Barcelona should be competing in the Champions League but they must now concentrate on winning the Europa League now, says he hopes both sets of fans behave well, how he has tightened the defence since their Champions League elimination, says he thinks the new system for two legged ties which sees away goals no longer count as double is fairer, how the squad reacts to news of allegations of financial impropriety, what he makes of Ten Hag as a coach - saying turning around Manchester United was no easy task, whether he remembers receiving information about referees when he was a player, the performances of defender Roland Araujo.
