Yeah, there were some awful stuff in the first 15-20. He had a better second half around the middle but still, in the final 3rd he is useless.
I don't think the timing of these types of comments overshadow us being happy about winning the league or appreciating these players btw, it's valid discussion.

One of the most ridiculous posts I've seen. Maybe you should integrate properly into the forum before posting such stupid things. Visca el Barça y visca don Andres!
For what? He did one good roulette and minutes later plucked the ball out the sky like a don... his technique has never been under dispute, very few get close to him in that respect, but he is massively overrated in every other department of his play. Again, can't pass, can't shoot, shits himself when he gets into the final third.
If the club had any sense they'd replace him sharpish. Currently the midfield lacks little to no creativity and no pace whatsoever. Rakitic works his socks off, but at times it looks like he's running in treacle too.
If the front three suffer a prolonged lapse as they did a couple months ago (albeit for a few matches), next season won't end well. The midfield has got to be a priority in the summer.

Best midfielder around
You're pretty much spot on with everything here, but the fanboyism for him is so high on here that the very moment you criticize him, you get attacked. Though, this is probably not the day and time to discuss this. Let's celebrate first!

The last time a legend was accused of the same he helped us win a treble. I hope the History repeats
Xavi? IMO last season's success should mainly be attributed to Messi. One man team at times, not seen those kind of performances since a certain other Argie back in the 80s.

are you sure you support barca, if so, how did you miss that goal in el clasico. atleast do the research before making such absolute statements or you end up looking like a mug.
Sorry it was last season he didn't score in the league
So 1 league goal in 2 seasons. Great return for an attacking midfielder.
lEts r8 players based on their stats cus thats huw football works!!1!

Maybe you should be pointing fingers at the right person for this "issue", i.e the coach? Atleast try to use your head and understand what Iniesta's role is nowadays. You buy Pogba, Verratti, Gundogan and restrict them to circulating the ball and making sure the team defends counter-attacks and they'll play just the same. The midfield doesn't lack creativity (seriously, every team in the world would take Busquets and Iniesta's creativity if they could), the team is set up so that the creativity either comes from the front 3 or most of the goals are being scored on the counter-attack.
Can't believe you can't see how lucky your own team is to have such players with such a midfield. The main reason teams like Madrid, PSG, Bayern (against any good team) concede so much is because of mistakes in midfield or because of how easily their midfield is bypassed when the opponent attacks. In particular, pointing fingers at Iniesta who has to sacrifice his play-style and attacking instincts for the better of the team is just really poor taste. Isn't this the team that went 39 games unbeaten? Do you think that happened despite your midfield?
If your team is so dependent on the front three for your creativity, maybe you should be firing your coach instead.
Also, [MENTION=12590]ThwiX[/MENTION] is complaining about fanboyism. Incredible stuff.

Iniesta can't pass. That's a good one.
