Please point of correction Spain did not win 3 international tournament in a row. Just because they flopped shamelessly during the 2009 confederations cup losing to Usa doesn't mean we should erase it from history.

Ozil cannot play in a 4-3-3 and that's a structural problem for his teams. Lampard is a 4-3-3 midfielder who would slot in that Barca 4-3-3 and show that Iniesta is just fooling you with vibes. Iniesta was never responsible for controlling but creating. All the controlling was done by Xavi and Busquet to a lesser extent. Xavi makes 100 passes, Busquet makes 80 and Iniesta only 60. Midfield control never lost a single percentage when Keita came in. His job was to create and be productive and he failed woefully, but people who don't understand where midfield control comes from will create excuses that his job is to control, not to create. Control always comes from the two deepest midfielders primarily. Any AM telling you he is controlling is telling porkies. Bayern does not need Muller to control games. Muller does what he supposed to do, not lying that he's helping to "control midfield" with only 60 passes


Thanks for the analysis.

I wish Man United fans asking Bruno to control our midfield will see this.

Can we agree that Ozil >>> Inesta and Xavi?

Take Iniesta forward since Xavi never once claimed to be an AM in his life.

Levi Colwill on training with Thiago Silva:

"It was surreal. I wasn't daunted though. I tried to keep my composure & not look like a fanboy. I didn't get a chance to speak to him properly while I was with the 1st team."

Just stating it cause it seems people have forgotten about it. Spain decline and success has nothing to do with one stupid Xavi. Spain still dominate Possession with even small boys like Pedri and Create lot and lot of chances. What they miss is a clinical striker In the mold of David Villa. Xavi is not worth any piss. Put Kroos in that team and they won't remember anyone called Xavi.

That Modric flopped his first season is not disputed. But I bet he didn't have zero GA though.

I like Iniesta no doubt but he's been the luckiest footballer in history IMO. Never has one player received so much providence for so little.

And it's not a single season. Defenders who come up for corners are beating chest with him.
Well the little "luck" he got made him to be the only man in history (yet) to be the MOTM in a UCL, Euros and World cup final undecided

They bullied everyone so long as FOOTBALL is concerned.

Bullied the world tournaments

Bullied European tournaments

Bullied every living thing in La Liga.

Infact, until their pair ended, Ronaldo only won one Laliga.

Nobody wanted to face them, Midfielders like Kante, Fernandiho, Casmeiro, Hojberg and Ndidi are lucky not to play them, them go run tire and they won’t collect the ball.

In fact, na cardiac arrest go retire them if they had faced this trio.

Inesta and Xavi were specialists on some things that made them compatible. You can’t like one and slander one.

It’s either you like the two, hate the two or be truthful to hype the two when compared to amateurs.

MOTM in a Euros final where his team scored 4 goals and he didn't have a single GA while Xavi with two assists was overlooked.

That's the same tournament that made Capaldi say the below:

Capaldi:

A winger produced 0 goal and just 1 assist yet was proclaimed Man of the tournament. Numerous times he was smuggled into Uefa and fifa team of the year is shocking as well. I have never seen any player do so little yet get so much praise and accolades.

Well I can't argue with Gods grace.

Barca beat madrid 4-0 with pedri bossing the midfield ahead of a classy modric ,so I guess because of that pedri is better than modric

I have seen Xavi pair with Fabregas and Marcos Senna in 2008 tournament while Iniesta is on the periphery on the wing to know Iniesta is not central to Xavi

Seen Xavi pair with Busquet and Alonso in 2010 and 2012 also with no show stopped

Seen Xavi pair with Seydou Keita and Busquet and no change to the level of dominance

But never seen Barca or Spain midfield consistently dominant with 65% to 80% of possession every game after Xavi

Nonsense.

2018 world cup Spain averaged 69% possession.


2020 euros Spain Averaged 67% Possession.


Better than any tournament Xavi Was involved in with Spain.


Xavi was not worth a piss.

4-4-2 era is different from 4-3-3 era.

Zidane matches up perfectly statswise against other AM from his era like Nedved, Laudrup, even Figo etc

It's only in Iniesta era we will be seeing massive variance like his peers quadrupling his stats

Fact remains that Inesta is ahead of Zidane all round.

Isn’t it?
