In the last month, FC Barcelona has shown a notable improvement in its performance on the pitch. Despite the setback suffered against Granada in their own fiefdom, the Catalans have shown obvious superiority over their rivals in most of the matches. This was evident in the recent victory against Napoli, the current Italian champion, reflecting a positive change in the performance and attitude of the Barcelona players.
9 games: 6 wins and 3 draws
Since Xavi Hernández announced his departure from the culé bench starting in June, Barcelona has played a total of nine games, winning six wins and three draws. The team showed its offensive potential by convincingly defeating Osasuna 1-0, and then beat Alavés with a score of 3-1. However, the 3-3 draw against Granada was a reminder of the defensive frailties that still persist in the team, despite the brilliance shown by Lamine Yamal.

In a match full of emotion, Barcelona managed to take the three points from the Celta de Vigo stadium with an impressive double from Robert Lewandowski in the last minute. The 1-1 draw against Napoli at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium showed a more balanced performance, while the 4-0 victory over Getafe showcased Barcelona's absolute dominance on the Montjuic pitch.
The match against Athletic Club, which ended in a goalless draw, showed a less inspired performance by the culé team. However, Barcelona quickly recovered by beating Mallorca 1-0 at home, with another outstanding goal from Lamine. The last game, a 3-1 victory over Napoli, saw players like Cubarsí, Lamine and Sergi Roberto shine, all products of the club's youth system.
Xavi Hernandez has been praised for his role in this resurgence, with numerous press conferences where he highlighted his confidence that the team would experience a change in attitude after announcing his departure. As the season progresses, Barcelona looks to maintain this positive dynamic and continue its rise in the La Liga and Champions League standings.
