What a performance!!!!! Vintage Xavi.

He's terrific. For me, their 3rd best player after Modric and Ronaldo. Not sure why Isco gets more praise.

"All about Ronaldo" is a bit too much. James (who's a better player than Isco regardless of what the fanboys on here say) made a perfect return pass to Cristiano.

Even if he was Spain's most important player (which he wasn't) it was only marginal. He just benefited from playing in Spain's golden era. It'll be another 20-30+ years before Spain gets a team with champions like Torres, Puyi, Busquets, Xavi, Don, Villa, Ramos, Pique, Alonso, Silva, Fabregas...

Iniesta has gotten a pass his entire career for sub-par stats yet you're labeling Zidane inconsistent? The latter didn't have the privilege of playing with the best ever midfielder and player either.

C'mon Zidane was clearly better than Iniesta.

Wonder if Cesc would be getting these sort of excuses made for him if he went over a year without a goal or assist.....

Goetze has been solid scoring wise anyway but he was advertised as a generational talent by German media as were Neymar and Hazard. Those two have taken significant strides every season while he has stagnated or dare I say regressed over the past couple of years. There's of a distinct lack of...

He's still a great player but he was never going to be as good as Hazard and Neymar. He's a level below that with the likes of James, Isco, De Bruyne etc Not his fault German media overrated him.

Great game. Loved the unselfishness at the end.

No it's a stupid stat that belongs in basketball. So you're telling me those hit & hope crosses & 1 yard sideways passes are more valuable than the sitters Messi's constantly supplies Alba and Neymar in every game? I just showed you evidence why that assist stat means nothing and that's your...

All it proves is assist is a meaningless, misleading stat that is usually taken out of context. 4 of his "world class" assists. I remember he also picked up like 2/3 assists earlier on in the season from mishit shots as well. Stupid stat.

ePMvIGEGRcI Yep he's better than Neymar. Everything I want in an ideal winger for Barcelona is in this video. The link up between him, Don and Leo could have been amazing. :(

He's easily Top 5 for me. His consistency is the most remarkable thing about him, it's akin to the Don up until last season. He constantly puts in great performances no matter the circumstances. Hazard's work in the build-up is otherworldly, he's a highly intelligent, cerebral player. His...

This a joke? He's easily better than both. He's competing with Robben, Ronaldo and Neymar for 2nd best player in the World.

No disrespect to EPL fans but he's clearly too good for their League. Deserves to be playing for either us or Madrid.

What a player.

According to Wikipedia, 42 League goals between the 07/08 season and 09/10. 67 goals in all competitions. Crazy stuff.
