raumdeuter: Boateng was also fit today but was overlooked for sulele and thst must be very pathetic of your mcm who isnt coming back from injury. Thiago Silva doesn't need to visit his club or country museum before showing his children his personal award, show us Boateng's award that won't be placed in the club or country's museum 3 Likes |

raumdeuter: Neymar would have taken the game more seriously and he together with mbappe would have also converted their more glaring chances. |

Kilishihunter:Individually, Xavi> Kroose Iniesta=Modric Casemiro>>Bousquet. Collectively, Madrid trio> Barca trio. Note: Madrid trio will perform better individually in another club. |

Melvyn11:No. kroose and xavi are the dictator, they are more deep in midfield than iniesta and Modric. Iniesta and Modric are the runners or rather ball careers hence my placement. |

hensben: Iniesta now equal to Modric because the latter won balon d' or with 2 goals and as many assists. Prime Bousquet was better than Casemiro. His intelligence on the ball was found often frustrating by opponents. All together, that prime Barca mildfield was unplayable. They can pass you to death. 7 Likes |

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by hensben(m): 10:17am On Apr 08, 2021 |
Melvyn11:I think Xavi is slightly better than kroos. Modric and iniesta are on par. I watched xavi and iniesta during their prime so I know what I am saying |

When xavi and iniesta were playing actively the duo of kross and modric only sit back to mark and Mark. The Barcelona trio were toying with sir Alex Ferguson prime Manchester,they dominated in an era were the ground were evenly equal.when modric and Alonso who is even far better than either of kross and cassemiro were asked to play against man United,they needed a red card to find answers to a SAF team without ronaldo. Go and start your fallacies elsewhere,non of modric and kross are close to iniesta . 10 Likes |

hensben:Madrid trio would perform in another club than the Barca trio yes But I might not agree with your individual comparisons fully As great as Xavi was Most analysts still rate iniesta above him To me iniesta only lacked Messi's consistent finishing he had the rest of his abilities Dribbling Technicality Passing prowess Vision and scoring clutch goals too for both club and country As for Casemiro and busquets In areas of strength and tackling and even scoring you may be right but what I know is that Sergio busquets has been massively underrated throughout his career even by his own fans You could hardly win the ball off prime busquets He would find a way to confuse you and he was the anchor man for that trio and still the one for Spain currently He might not have the brute strength, energy and dirty work Casemiro brings to real but he covers up for it with intelligent passing ball winning and high pressing Don't let his lanky frame deceive you 6 Likes |

Kilishihunter:First and foremost the primary duty of a CDM is to defend, do dirty work for the team before passing. Secondly, Bousquet is a system player, if he play for any team not Barcelona he will seen as average player. Casemiro beat him hands down. If Jorginho was to be in Barca during xavi and iniesta era he will be hailed to high heaven, that’s how you will be seeing him to be great. Individually, Madrid trio will perform better. 3 Likes 1 Share |

hensben: You know what talent means but sentiment won't let you stop spinning. In case if you don't know, let me describe what a talented mildfielder looks like. A talented mildfielder is one who has exceptional passing ability, excellent first touch which he uses to catch opponents off guard, creative thinking which makes him create chances out of nothing and an excellent vision. Kelvin De Bruyne is a perfect example. We used to have Cesc Fabregas and Juan Mata, both of whom had high productivity but were sadly maligned by some fans for not being physical. Kovacic has none of those attributes and that's why his stats doesn't reflect the activity he forms with his dribbling. 4 Likes |

Bombblacks:Nothing wrong being a system player just that it’s a big disadvantage if you play for a team with no culture who hire and fire managers at will like Chelsea, Madrid, etc. If Pep succeeded in signing Jorginho then he would’ve being hailed to high heaven by now as the best CDM in epl and the world but unfortunately he is in Chelsea. Systematic players are easily exposed, it’s selected managers that can use them. 1 Like |
