Gillete 1,338 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 For years I've been trying to work out who's the better player I think it's impossible and an unanswerable questionEach one a genius in tika tak Each one the greatest of their generation and possibly the entirety of the game Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turnberry18 3,204 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 There is not a better midfielder than Iniesta. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goianegra 4,710 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Iniesta for me. Last season at least anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieD 20,039 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Iniesta is considerably more talented. Xavi is more effective. A substantial part of what makes Iniesta great is the sheer beauty of his football, and beauty means fuck all in the grand scheme of things. Xavi is all business.

ready1873 3,952 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Iniesta easily for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
harlands plater 17,158 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I remember when we played Barca at Ibrox I went expecting Xavi to be the one who stood out, then after the game I was raving about Iniesta. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottBF2 3,540 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Xavi is a really clever footballer. His positioning, control and passing are world class.Iniesta is more flamboyant. His control is as good as Xavi's, but it's his ability to beat a man that makes him so good.I'm a huge Iniesta fan, but I'm not sure who I'd say is better.

SK Rfc 568 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Think iniestas more entertaining. Lot of work xavi does goes unnoticed Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I think Iniesta could easily "reinvent" himself and play the Xavi role when he gets to the wrong side of 30 & he slows down a little bit.When both are done I think Iniesta will be remembered as the better player because he is so much younger than Xavi is and is likely to win honours for atleast another four/five years before he starts the veteran wind down.

Jimfanciesthedude 25,617 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Both do different things so it's hard to compare.this, xavi is the type of player that would be playing the pass into iniesta who has made an ince perfect run in behind Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearer 124 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 If Iniesta could add more goals to his game then he'd be the best in the world. Despite Xavi being the deeper lying player he's always scored the most of the two. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sassaaaa 11,406 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Iniesta has been the best midfielder in the world for 4 years at least with Xavi just behind him in my view .Together they are miles ahead of the rest ....... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKingObv 10,860 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Xavi for me. Too many times last season, and in recent years, Iniesta has faded from games.When both at their best, it's Iniesta though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky_ 893 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 tough one. Xvai for me. What he does in a game is invaluable. Like Scholes or Pirlo on steriods. although Barca stle is very much an entire team system and needs al 11 men to be in sync, Xavi is the biggest cog in that wheel, that wheel that brings his team 65%+ possession.Iniesta is more of an attacking player than xavi, he looks to penetrate defence, opens teams up, splits defences wide open. Creates more chances, dribbles better. One his game he is as effective as Messi imo (unless its a game against lesser teams where messi is walkign the ball into the net).
