Barcelona whiz Yamal takes aim at former coach Xavi: Carlos Volcano

Following in the footsteps of fellow Barca youngsters Pedri and Pau Cubarsi, Yamal has chimed in with his belief that coach Hansi Flick is more attacking than Xavi.

After scoring twice in victory at Girona, he told Barca One: "Returning from the national team is always complicated, but today (against Girona) we have been very good.

"We now think about the next game."

Then Yamal left a small dart for Xavi in comparison with Flick.

"The key has been to be direct. When we recover we only think about scoring...," he concluded.
