Can I, yes

Xavi calculates how much time it takes for a through pass to reach a player whether he will be offside or not

He also calculates how many touches he can take in a small space before he is closed down

That's why his game is so simple
These Xavi kind of players are the ones who have made football boring. Pass, pass, pass all day, every game.

I'd take a Ronaldinho over him multiple times.

And that's why the landscape has become bland. God knows how much I detested tiki taka. How can I endure watching football without wow moments. I need my Da Vincis, my Michelangelos, my Mozarts on the pitch and Ronaldinho was a beauty, absolute, breathtaking, throbbing, daring and joyous beauty.

No bro

Xavi plays as a central Midfielder

While ronaldinho plays as an attacking midfielder or from the flanks

Its just like comparing rakitic to messi

The only good thing about Shehu on this lineup is that he played as a RB several times for his club in the just concluded season.

Some peeps are saying the list is not yet out.
Let us exercise some form of patience.
I don't think he will be that stupid to have Iwobi play on the wing in that terrible weather.
This is our first match we have to make a statement to the rest of Africa!
I just pray that old German disappoint me
