I know what Xavi is capable of. I'm not underrating him, he's a fantastic midfielder, arguably the best although I put him 2nd to Iniesta personally. Your last line is complete bollocks. The majority of Xavi's passes are indeed sideways or backwards. That isn't a criticism, it's a fact and it baffles me that you even deny it. I'm not having a pop at him, which you obviously seem to think I am seeing as your panties are in a twist.
