Thank you, Gavi, for making the transition to a new #6 easier by having a name that’s one letter different from Xavi’s (yes, I’m aware we had other #6s since Xavi’s departure. Yes, I’m aware that “Gavi” is a nickname). Imagine the hilarity if that was the case with Pedri and Iniesta too.

#when pedri came onto the scene god....he was my light #xavi and andrés were EVERYTHING for me and i missed them #i missed the soul of barça #and then this teenage boy showed up and it was shocking #his talent is unreal. it would be at any age but he was a kid when he showed up! he still is. he just turned 20 #if he continues to get better and he stays in form he may end up surpassing iniesta. look at where he is now #and none of say this lightly considering we adore iniesta and we've seen him play for so many years #gavi doesn't have the same profile as xavi. he's very different #but with him and pedri as our 6 and 8? i feel like i'm coming home #i feel like we've been lost for so long and the ship is righting itself even if we're in trouble #the doldrums lasted so long but i feel excitement and hope again #we sorely need that and if they pull it off then they're going to be as special (in a different way) to me #the beating heart of barça is its midfield and these two boys sure are something #i don't think i can put into words what these two already mean to me and what they will mean in the years to come
