Barcelona coach Xavi admits winning the LaLiga was the demand of president Joan Laporta last summer.
Xavi says the title was the priority ahead of the Champions League.
He said, "La Liga was the main objective of the season, not because we were eliminated from the Champions League, but because we had already discussed with the president that the main objective of this season was to win La Liga.
"The president compares it a lot with (Frank) Rijkaard's season. In Rijkaard's first season we didn't win anything, we came second, but we had a second half of the season when we started to see things.
"The following season we won La Liga, which is what we've done now. And the following season is when we win La Liga and we have the good fortune to win the Champions League."
