22 - Marc Bernal

[Porque]

It is true but those two (Iniesta more so from an individual point of view) were incredible at 17/18.

I think in current football, Iniesta is breaking into the first team at 17 or so. When Gavi gets his first minutes at 16, Dro at 17 and Nico at 18, then times have definitely changed. Then the best of that crop Pedri at 16.

Xavi probably the same or 18. Just different level of player.

Yeah it has indeed shifted a little... But than again, Bernal was out for a year and still slowly coming back from his injury.

It also depends on who 17 year old Iniesta has ahead of him.

Gavi and Lamine would have broken through at later age if it weren’t for desperate times.

Maybe that is what you are already saying.
