Ancelotti said he had no advice to offer Xavi, whom he believes possesses the capability to get Madrid’s bitter rivals back on track.
“Xavi, like me, knows football very well, and there is criticism,” Ancelotti told reporters.
“Sometimes it can happen, but Xavi has the experience to manage all this.
“He knows the atmosphere (around Barca) and I think he has everything he needs to manage the situation.”
