    Spain

    Azpili is the best defensively (and was the most consistant all season) amongst the bunch and he's just as good as Carvajal going foward (+ he can also play on both the left and right side). Ultimately Alba is the best offensively though.

    Spain

    I'm surprised many people here think Llorente will (or should) be dropped. Other than Costa, he's been the most in form striker on that list for a long while now. But unlike Costa, Llorente actually fits Spain's style of play.. Thes 5 players: Busquets,Thiago,Cesc,Iniesta & Silva all behind a...

    France

    Wait... you think Mexes & Rami deserved to make the team but not Nasri? LOOL How many players in that squad had better season than Nasri?

    Cesc Fàbregas

    Or Barca's style of play needs modification (not really because of Cesc by the way). The team's style of play is not suited for Alexis either, but between the 2 of them, there's no way Alexis is the more important player.

    Andrés Iniesta

    The thing here though is that i don't consider Iniesta to be a better dribbler or passer than Zidane. We also have to consider other aspects like abilities to take freekicks and coner kicks. Messi is the main reason why Barca 08-12 is considered one of the greatest teams ever cause he was more...

    Andrés Iniesta

    Zidane's main Job wasn't to score either. Every attacking minded player is required to score occasionally (strikers more so than others), because once again you need to score to win a game and nothing states that only the strikers must score the goals. I find it funny that you're using to...

    Andrés Iniesta

    So you're trying to blame the system for Iniesta not scoring more when he tries to or for him not shooting more and not having a very good eye for going for goal? lol And no Iniesta is by no means a better dribbler than Zidane (they're both very good dribblers who dribble swiftly), neither are...

    Andrés Iniesta

    When we're talking about central attacking midfielders who both have the same qualities, we have to add their goal scoring abilities to the equation. Last time i checked, you need to score to win games, and when it comes to that, Zidane edges Iniesta out. And like i said earlier, he did it with...

    Andrés Iniesta

    lool... I'ld have sworn that pass was from Carlos though :blush: But yeah Zidane is better imo because he was a much better goal scorer than Iniesta has ever been, and he did it with both his right & left foot and also scored headers. Like Iniesta, Zidane often shined in big matches too

    Champions League 2013/2014

    Exactly, the only alternatives are not the extremely defensive options. With that been said, i also like watching very good defensive performances sometimes like Chelsea (who imo is very different from Stoke in many ways).

    Champions League 2013/2014

    I'm guessing you missed the word "essentially" in my post. For example, Bayern last season was a very good mix of possession and direct football

    Champions League 2013/2014

    2 counter attacking teams will play the final, says a lot about football style based essentially on possession..

    Thiago Translantara

    Yeah but not even half as good as Ronaldinho though

    Cesc Fàbregas

    And they're still "trying" to play only that way for most part (which is a mistake imo), just with much less pressure. But what does that have to do with Cesc though?

    Cesc Fàbregas

    Cesc Fàbregas

    lol @ some people trying to act like Villareal players where tired from pressure when Cesc came in, what pressure??? lol Barca basically started playing the moment Cesc (and Tello) were subbed in. I also noticed that his ball control was way better and he didn't lose the ball even when he had...

    Cesc Fàbregas

    While all this is true, i'll like to know why they work well when they play together at the same time in the Spanish NT..
