Xavi is so disrespected.. I'm a barca fan and since he left nobody has been able to fill his shoes... fab came in to replace him and xavi kept him on the bench... he has one of the greatest midfield campaigns ever... 54 games with 10 assist and 30 assists
Kroos is freaking class. He is easily top 10. These guys clearly haven't watched him play. The guy ran games against the highest quality teams on the biggest of stages. Also won everything he possibly could and was an important player as well. And if you guys think i am biased, you're very wrong, i am a Barca fan.
Xavi is easily the best player in that Barca trio he was the 2nd best player on the Barca team from 2009-2011, and he was by far the most complete of the 3 as well being the best goalscorer playmaker and a better defender than Iniesta. The only thing Iniesta is better than Xavi at is dribbling
Riquelme must not exist, Alex must not exist, Rivaldo must not exist. All better than majority of their list. Played in the same time period as Xavi and Zidane. So they must qualify.
they have a cool channel, but the lack of south americans on these lists they do. Shows their ball knowledge. Not gonna say they have an agenda, but south americans have ran football for all of its history.
"Pirlo is a bigger goalthreat than Xavi and offers more". Xavi - 108 goals and 211 assists, Pirlo - 73 goals and 132 assists. Xavi assisted in World cup semi, two assists in Euro final 2012 against Pirlo, assisted even in 2009 and 2011 CL final. Do some research before you speak akh.
You don't know what you're talking about. Xavi took penalties and played in a Barca team that averaged several goals a game,. If you think he was more dangerous in front of goal than Pirlo, you are clueless. Stop looking and stats and actually watch the game.
This is what happens when kids skip school. Getting too giddy and talking absolute shit. The only thing that yute mentions when he talks about older players is highlights and Twitter opinions. Joker
Nah that’s crazy Guti was class bro he was amazing bro watch him play and his intelligence and playmaking was something else. Pablo Aimar was one of Benfica’s best midfielders he was class and Messi even said he’s his idol.
People forget that Ronaldino and Maradona are attacking midfielders. Maradona was mostly behind 2 strikers. Ronaldinho for PSG attacking midfielder...for Barca...Left side attacker who would play slightly behind Etto
1.Xavi 2.Didi 3.Matthäus 4.Platini 5.Iniesta 6.Kroos 7.Charlton 8.Zidane 9.Pirlo 10.Busquets HM: Modric(11), KDB, Rjkaard, Scholes, Suarez, Kopa, Cubillas Shoutouts: Lampard, Gerrard, Vieira, Boszik, Socrates I have excluded 10s that operated higher up the pitch like: Zico, Maradona, Messi Come at me ill debate about everything here
mate there's no way you've seen all these players in action, your going off stats and accolades, eye test plays a big part in these debates plus they said 2000 onwards. respect the research tho
@@SyedMurtazaHamdani110 You can try footballia. They have many old matches. The hardest one to rate was Didi. I rated him through the footage of the 58 WC. And I read old newspapers and most pieces about him. I also talked to some older brazilians who watched him. The other ones have all at least 60 matches. Exception is Boszcik. Rated him similar way to Didi.
@@roronoalaw7772 Didi is better, Matthäus locked up Maradona twice in 2 WC finals and had an immaculate club career. Played until he was 40 and was elite in every position on the pitch , Platini had the best EURO performance of any player ever, scored more goals than prime Maradona in the best defensive league of all time. And was the best passer of the ball ever. So yeah no chance Iniesta is over any of them
Lol These guys are making me laugh. They really have not watched Xavi play football. He was there setting the tone for that midfield before Iniesta. Xavi can not be replaced by Toni Kroose lol Kroose is a good player, but his style of play would not be as productive in that Bara team as he is in Madrid. Xavi would easily fit into that Real Madrid midfield. The easiest player to replace out of the 3 midfielders would be busquet .Why? Because Toure already proved that. People forget Toure was one of the best DM in the world for 2 yrs in Spain winning the 2 league titles and 1 Champions league.
1) Viera was a much better player than they discussed. Not only for Arsenal but for France) panelists on Kaka should get him banned on TV. Kaka dominated Serie A for several years,, Kaka won the league in his first season and dragged AC Milan to 2 Champions League finals...Won 1.He was the top assist and goal scorer in the Champions League. 3) This silly talk about Pirlo should be above Xavi...what nonsense. Just glad Xavi was 3rd, It's like these guys never watched either of these players. Yes, Pirlo could pass the ball....Xavi moved around the pitch a lot more. Short passes/long passes, dribble, even goals. Xavi edged Pirlo on assists and goals. Yes, Pirlo had some quality over-the-top passes, but not better than Xavi
What are you talking about? Xavi could NOT pass like Pirlo, that's insane. There isn't a better long passer than Pirlo in the history of football, at least in the modern era. Xavi scored more goals because he took pens and played in a Barca team that average 5 goals a game. Pirlo was a much bigger goal threat, especially when it came to shots from distance and set-pieces. I'm convinced you've never watched either of them.
@@Al-ji4gdI don't know what nonsense you are talking about about...I am fully aware how good passer Pirlo was. My point is Xavi was a more versatile player.. could do it all.
@@Al-ji4gd Oh please stop your nonsense..Pirlo couldn't move around the midfield like Xavi...Xavi better dribbling passed players...linking up the attack...running, short pases/ passes..he did it all
@@maden341 Again, no he did not. No one even cared about Xavi before 2008 when Barca started winning everything. Pirlo was considered one of the best before anyone gave a damn about Xavi.
Xavi is underrated. Iniesta had more stand out moments, more forward and flashy. Xavi orchestrated the entire game though and was the engine of that tiki taka era. Busquets is overrated af. Easily the most replaceable of the three.
I think I’ve seen it all now, just when I saw some idiot saying Suarez was underrated, here you’re saying Xavi is underrated when he’s known for being in the best midfield trio or the best team of all time
Iniesta was not levels ahead of Xavi....absolutely nonsense. He may be considered as better dribbling wise. I would put Iniesta above...but only by 1 place
Yeah that guy was waffling, clearly didn’t watch him play, Kaka was fucking ridiculous, so unique in how direct he played, he’d just charge with the ball with mad pace and his passing was elite, never seen a midfielder with his profile. Also Jad was right, the guy asking if Kaka’s prime was Milan or Madrid proves he didn’t watch him lol that’s a dumb question
1. Zidane 2. Iniesta 3. Modric 4. Pirlo 5. Fabregas 6. Scholes 7. Xavi 8. Seedorf 9. Thiago 10. Busquets KDB is one of the most, if not THE MOST, overrated midfielder in the history of the game. No way is he in the list. Same with Gerrard, Lampard and all them Brexit ballers.
It’s so good to have Ali back man!!! Proper OG 🤣❤️
Fabregas over kdb????? Cmooon man
I had a moment of weakness sorry
@@97jadno you didn’t coz you’re correct 😂 fabregas over kdb any day of the week
While I personally don’t agree with it and have KDB has the best Prem midfielder of all time, I don’t think it’s crazy to have Fabregas over him
@@nolimitmoIt is 100% hilarious Fabregas isn’t in those convos
@@nolimitmowhat team do you support (you’re a deluded arsenal fan)
Toni Kroos most underrated midfielder of all time.
Fr he's top 5 for me
Xavi is so disrespected.. I'm a barca fan and since he left nobody has been able to fill his shoes... fab came in to replace him and xavi kept him on the bench... he has one of the greatest midfield campaigns ever... 54 games with 10 assist and 30 assists

Xavi isn’t complete, he has no left foot lol
@@roronoalaw7772 If you could read i said the most complete of the midfield 3
facts
Xavi is not more complete than Iniesta. Iniesta can do everything Xavi could but not vice versa.
@@boubacardiallo5945 Which isn’t true at all, Iniesta is clearly more complete than Xavi.
Riquelme must not exist, Alex must not exist, Rivaldo must not exist. All better than majority of their list. Played in the same time period as Xavi and Zidane. So they must qualify.
they have a cool channel, but the lack of south americans on these lists they do. Shows their ball knowledge. Not gonna say they have an agenda, but south americans have ran football for all of its history.
This is the line up we’ve been waiting for
Gattuso is crazy underrated. Captain AC Milan squad with Maldini, Nesta, Pirlo that dominated Champions league and Serie A
"Pirlo is a bigger goalthreat than Xavi and offers more". Xavi - 108 goals and 211 assists, Pirlo - 73 goals and 132 assists. Xavi assisted in World cup semi, two assists in Euro final 2012 against Pirlo, assisted even in 2009 and 2011 CL final. Do some research before you speak akh.

No idea who the guys opposite you are but cold episode still
Lampards managerial career destroyed his reputation. Why are people so mad about him beeing in the list. He‘s clear of Gerrard
Nobody with a brain thinks he’s clear of Gerrard.
“Clear” is crazy
Thiago Motta is one of the most underrated midfielders ever
This is what happens when kids skip school. Getting too giddy and talking absolute shit. The only thing that yute mentions when he talks about older players is highlights and Twitter opinions. Joker
Oh my god! BarraBruvvas pro clubs? 👀 We will be there!
Sunday finna be peak as usual
Awale getting nominated for signing of the season
Nah that’s crazy Guti was class bro he was amazing bro watch him play and his intelligence and playmaking was something else. Pablo Aimar was one of Benfica’s best midfielders he was class and Messi even said he’s his idol.
