Andrés Iniesta
Another great clutch moment: Great goal in a very tough game. And that's the thing, it's not always about the stage/opposition, whenever he's playing and Barca for whatever reason are kind of 'up against it', he is brilliant and steps up his game. It's ridiculous how many times the...- Elite-BkD

Thiago Translantara
Almost starting to hope that he does leave and people get to watch him play against Iniesta to gain some perspective. -
Thiago Translantara
Considering the amount of shit the defense was taking, and how irrelevant it is whether we win or lose competitive matches, we should have started a talented prospect who habitually gives the ball to opposing forwards inside his own half over Xavi far more often. Right? Gawsh, Tito is such an... -
Thiago Translantara
Thiago is not a nothing player, without him the club never would have won... -
Thiago Translantara
If you have to pick between a nothing player and on a par with Iniesta/Xavi etc, ....eh. One of my favorite players, but the wankfests he generates are absolutely outta control. It's as crazy as pretending that Neymar right now does not deserve to be benched by Messi if it came down to one or... -
Iñigo Martínez
Are you really pretending that one quote out of context gives you so much insight into Pep's mind that you can say with authority that Pep would agree that Masch reads the game better than Pique? I suppose you'd also be comfortable inferring Pep rates Masch more highly than say, Iniesta or Xavi...- Elite-BkD

Thiago Translantara
Best player on the pitch again. Another very composed, mature display and throughout the entire match he was shadowed relentlessly by dutch players, markers sprinting toward him even when he ran as deep as DM/CB's to receive the ball. It seemed quite obvious to me who the Dutch considered their... -
How good will Neymar get?
Quite hard to guess, could literally be anywhere from 0 to 10. Some seriously high expectations from the members here... -
Isco
^Nope, no way, performed quite different functions, only if you're judging the amount of skillful flair did he surpasss Thiago.- Elite-BkD

UEFA European U21 Championship
He was young enough when the tournament began (start of qualifiers, I think) -

Xavi Hernández
Overplayed yeah, and he could use some good rest, but this idea that he's declined in a massive way and that Thiago is better than him is insane.- Elite-BkD

Thiago Translantara
Thiago's main weakness this season has been that he's prone to giving the ball away in very silly fashion up to a few times per match. Defensive mid = less room for error (ask JDS) Perhaps Thiago getting limited minutes and at such a role had something to do with an attempt to destroy that... -
Thiago Translantara
Hardly. It seems pretty reasonable that management would want to use the last few games to assess certain players, and playing said players in a lineup that's close to full strength is the best way to go about it. And yes, Xavi is a significantly different player to Thiago. Could well be a load... -
Thiago Translantara
How about... For the benefit of Montoya..perhaps it'll be nice for management to see him play in a very strong squad, particularly with a Xavi-Iniesta-Busquets midfield so they have a better opportunity to assess where he stands at the moment and how the prospect of him as a regular start next... -
10 - Lionel Messi - v2
Seems quite likely that he'd be good at math imo. Other than that..innate intelligence and success in school have a different relationship from person to person. Bit premature to conclude he's thick before you ever lay eyes on him, never mind have a conversation or two. It is annoying how often... -

Obvious isn't it? He only had the one incident with the underage hooker, and that was on account of drinking too much beer!- Elite-BkD

Andrés Iniesta
Yeah, I don't mean to say all four of those are equal, that's just the group that I'd place head and shoulders above everyone else in terms of importance to team success, probably Messi/Xavi/Puyol&Iniesta if I had to order them.- Elite-BkD
