Xavi labelled Barcelona as ‘one of the worst team in Europe’ in a key area after his side dropped points again on Saturday. 

The Spanish giants were held to a 1-1 draw by Valencia as Hugo Guillamon’s superb strike cancelled out Joao Felix’s opener early in the second-half. 

Barca were made to pay for squandering a number of gilt-edged chances having dominated much of the encounter at the Mestalla. 

‘Valencia’s goal is a mistake, yes, but if we have to focus on something, it is effectiveness,’ he said speaking after the draw.

‘We can’t forgive these types of chances. We had the game under control, we had to make it 2-0 and score, we didn’t do it and that’s what we’re missing this season.

‘We must be one of the worst teams in Europe in terms of effectiveness. It happened to us in Mallorca, in Granada. 

‘We were much better than Atletico, and they almost equalised. Against Girona we should have gone 2-1 up, and then made it 3-3 late on. We’re not doing well in effectiveness.’

Against Valencia, Barca registered 16 shots with eight on target. In comparison, Valencia produced 11 shots with four on target.

The latest draw comes after last weekend’s 4-2 loss to Girona and the midweek 3-2 defeat by Antwerp in the Champions League. 

Xavi’s side could go nine points behind LaLiga leaders Girona if the latter beat Alaves at home on Monday night.
