    Well done, gaining some credibility :) Although I really hope you're wrong about the Thiago and Isco rumors

    I come in piece.

    What a funny welcome :lol: Glad to have you on the forum, hope your club knows what a gem they could have in Thiago.

    Andrés Iniesta

    I agree that there were players who did lead their teams better than Iniesta. That's not his job. However I don't think that it means he isn't among the best. The quiet men in the background doing their jobs are just as influential as that loud/proud leader who becomes the face of the team. Hell...

    I'm sorry but having one more CB wouldn't have kept us from getting thrashed 7-0 by Bayern. What difference would've even Thiago Silva made in those situations? At most he possibly could've kept the aggregate score at 6-0 instead of 7. Individual players and signings won't make a difference...

    Andrés Iniesta

    Iniesta has consistently been a driving force for the team, whether it shows in stats or not is something entirely different. He's also very clutch with his goals (CL semifinal, WC final). I'll be willing to say that no one on our team, not even Messi, is as consistent over the entire 90 minutes...

    Andrés Iniesta

    Well to be fair, most players don't get that "aura of legends" until they near retirement or are retired. For example, these days there are so many "hipster" football fans that try to feel superior by downplaying modern players like CR, Messi, or Iniesta and then wildly idolizing old players...

    Isco

    What the hell? :lol:

    Honestly I don't think you could. It's such a rash statement to make as if you know all the rigors and difficulties in being a club executive. You can't just go around signing whoever you like with all the money in the world. The board hasn't made the best of decisions but it's just laughable...

    Andrés Iniesta

    Zico was one of the best but I don't really consider him in that AM/CM range because his role as a goalscoring outlet. He's more comparable with the likes of Maradona/Ronaldinho

    Andrés Iniesta

    As far as midfielders go it's very, very hard to compare because the roles can vary so much ranging from Makelele to Maradona. The greatest in that AM/CM range would be these three: Iniesta Zidane Laudrup It really varies I guess but there are some midfielders who were great that are somewhat...

    Marquinhos is older and more able to progress/be a key player right now. Zouma would be a future kind of guy and what's the point if we do have a bunch of players like that from La Masia.

    FIFA U20 World Cup

    He doesn't try too much fancy bullshit but he is a very technically skilled player with vision for options that no one else can see. Every once in a while you'd see a little glimpse of his massive untapped technical ability with a beautiful turn, a mazy run, or a flair pass. He has a lot of...

    Wtf, Madrid trying to steal Marquinhos now?? Why can't Rosell seal deals for CB's or GK's as early and as assuredly as he did with Neymar? I actually thought we'd have a decent transfer window.

    Meh for me. A few years ago his talent levels were so overhyped by the English press that he was considered the third best player after Messi and Ronaldo? That's just ridiculous in my opinion. However that doesn't detract from the fact that he is a good player. Complete opposite of a Barca...

    Gerard Deulofeu

    Agree there. He's always been lazy as hell defensively though, it's nothing new. Before it was always walking around until he himself was in possession, at least now he makes runs.
