People saying Sergio Busquets should standup don't know what they are saying. Or rather, don't understand football. And it's not their fault. It's because Busquets didn't invest in PR during his playing day. Dude just went to the pitch, play football, and went back to his family. FYI, Busquets was the main engine of Barca midfield. Barca, during his days, could play comfortably if one of Xavi or Iniesta was missing. Barca was always in trouble is Busquets is not available. Busquets stayed longer in Barca while Xavi and Iniesta left because Barca couldn't find his replacement. Today, there are younger versions of Xavi, Iniesta, and Modric. We are yet to find the younger version of Busquets. Modric played for Madrid. In Madrid team, they had no one like Busquets. They had their own version of Xavi and Iniesta. No sane coach will sacrifice Busquets for Xavi or Iniesta or Modric. That said, Modric can't unseat any of the three. Talk about individual achievements, team achievements, statistics, awards, legendary status for club and country, relevance in a team, those three are ahead of him. |

EponObi:u are clearly the novice in football analysis.....any average dm with xavi and inesta will shine....but think of it what's Busquets own contribution in terms of goals? |
| Re: Who Should Give Up Their Seat For Luka Modrić? by yemmywesey(m): 1:53pm On Feb 10 |
Modric should keep standing. |

Ernchibyke:You are talking down a genius in the midfield. Busquet gave Barca stability by breaking up opponent's play. He was so intelligent and Barca build up play started from him while protecting the defenders sitting at his back. Without Busquet, Barca would not reach the height they got to during their golden era. He is an unsung hero |

| Re: Who Should Give Up Their Seat For Luka Modrić? by D00msDay(m): 3:12pm On Feb 10 |
wunmi590:Going by ur analogy about the Balon d'Or, does it means Rodri is better than Iniesta, Xavi, Pirlo etc ? |

MT:Tanx MT. Most of them disrespecting Busquet either have not watched him play or they don't understand football. |

| Re: Who Should Give Up Their Seat For Luka Modrić? by Solofresh2: 3:47pm On Feb 10 |
Great100000:Drop Xavi for more verticality and dribbling.Drop Iniesta for better structural balance and defensive coverage.Drop Busquets for an all-out creative (but risky) assault. |

Look, when it comes to the play positions... "None!" I repeat, None! But when it comes to hype and names or PR brand, then maybe, just maybe Sergio Busquets can get up. Hower the three seated (Xavi, Iniesta and Sergio) are perhaps the best or top 5 to have ever graced these midfield positions; AM, CM and DM... I.e if you list top 5 best ever AM's from the 2000's (Iniesta is there) If you list top 5 CM's from the 2000's (Xavi is there) If you list top 5 DM's from the 2000's (Sergio is there) In my Opinion Modric who is generally deployed as an AM or CM does not make even a top 8 list of AM or CM best evers from the 2000's, he might make a top 15 but thats it. |

Sugarboyy:You're right, very calm and composed player. |

Kukutente23:wtf u said Rodri is better than lampard have you lost ur brain cells Rodri isn't even better than de bruyne,kante and Fernandes he is not even yet in the level of casemiro yet you compare him to lampard because of ballon d or And who tf told you Rodri has more honours than Thierry Henry when Henry won almost everything at Barcelona do you know Thierry Henry is a world cup winner |
| Re: Who Should Give Up Their Seat For Luka Modrić? by Marc3500: 4:55pm On Feb 10 |
EponObi:I'm a Barcelona fan and to tell you the truth busquets is nowhere near modric he is not even better than Toni kroos I like ur analysis but u also forget that xavi started as a DM before moving Central Xavi can play a DM very well Modric will play central and Iniesta AM |
| Re: Who Should Give Up Their Seat For Luka Modrić? by Marc3500: 4:56pm On Feb 10 |
NaijaHelper1:with this ur analogy it looks like you know nothing about football |
| Re: Who Should Give Up Their Seat For Luka Modrić? by wunmi590(m): 6:09pm On Feb 10 |
D00msDay:Yes, he's better than them, if you can be the best in what you are doing, then you are not... Going by your question, Rodri is better than three of them combined |
| Re: Who Should Give Up Their Seat For Luka Modrić? by McBishop2020: 6:21pm On Feb 10 |
Why was he standing in the first place? There's a seat behind him so he should do the needful when he feels like. The players seated are too good to stand for him |
| Re: Who Should Give Up Their Seat For Luka Modrić? by tycoon096: 7:50pm On Feb 10 |
Xavi, because it certainly can't be Iniesta. It also shouldn't be Busquets because Modric isn't that much of a defensive midfielder. I'd let him start ahead of Xavi if I'm the coach |
| Re: Who Should Give Up Their Seat For Luka Modrić? by Kukutente23: 8:28pm On Feb 10 |
Marc3500:Does Henry have balon dor So Rodri has not won everything at Man City abi? The likes of Debruyne and Kante and Fernandes are also better than Lampard. Lampard was overrated |
| Re: Who Should Give Up Their Seat For Luka Modrić? by Kukutente23: 8:29pm On Feb 10 |
Fiscus105:Possibly |

Kalulu44:chai, a whole busquet? You think football is by gra gra, busquet is one of the greatest and most gifted dm ever, busquet can dribble three people with just a touch, before he traps the ball he has already calculated everything, all he needs is just a tap and the job is done. The great yaya toure was sold because of busquet, chai, try watch busquet highlight bro. |
