Barcelona attacker Fermin Lopez appreciates the support of coach Xavi.

Lopez has been promoted to the first team and impressed under Xavi.

He told Mundo Deportivo: "He's always very positive. He makes us self-critical, above all, but always with positivity, to look forward, correct and continue on our path.

"He kicks us when he has to, when we're not playing.

“There is really more pressure than at the other clubs, both internally and externally but well, you have to know how to handle those things and be focused on your football and work."
