Well, Xavi has let himself go since playing his final Barca game...
Fear not though, that's not a sizeable gut underneath the
Spanish midfielder's shirt but the match ball which the outgoing Barca

He may not have scored a hat-trick but it certainly beats taking goal nets, doesn't it Pique?
Barcelona beat Juventus 3-1 to win the Champions League
Barcelona completed an historic treble by
winning a fifth Champions League title thanks to a 3-1 victory against
Italian champions Juventus in Berlin.
Luis Enrique’s side made the perfect start to their treble bid as Ivan Rakitic rounded off a brilliant team move in the fourth minute to give his side an early lead.
However, Juventus fought back to grab a foothold in the game and they levelled the scores after the break thanks to Alvaro Morata's 55th-minute strike.
The goal filled Massimo Allegri's side full of confidence but just as they were starting to dominate proceedings, Suarez and Neymar sealed Barcelona's first Champions League title since 2011.
