Barcelona fans slam the club and manager Xavi after their defeat to Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League on Tuesday

Fans have slammed Barcelona following their defeat to Shakhtar in the Champions League on Tuesday. 

Shakhtar Donetsk beat 1-0 in the Matchday 4 of the Champions League.

Barcelona remained top of Group H on nine points, the same as Porto but better on goal difference. 

However, the Catalans’ supporters are not happy with the result and believe Group H should be a walk in the park for their team.

Some of the fans also blamed the manager for the poor performance, asking him to dedicate more time in learning coaching. 

“Xavi doesn’t have a pattern, no sequence of play..just dominate possession with. No shot …can’t XAVI talk to his players or they’re too high for him to handle,” an angry fan wrote on X.

“Thanks for ruining my mood.”

“So annoying.”

“Very disgraceful  performance,  xavi needs to learn.”

‘You guys[Barcelona]need a significant improvement in the performance. Nearly 2 months and there isn’t a single convincing performance. Got the easiest group in CL this season and then you drop these stinkers. Practicality needed instead of these emotional posts!” Fans of the Spanish side wrote.
