Andrés Iniesta

[slim boogy]

^Iniesta drifts too much back into midfield. He doesnt provide width like a traditional winger which is crucial against parked buses. The world best midfielder should play in midfiield. Its the whole playing DM's as CB's thing. He and Thiago would butt heads way too often. Tello is not as effective on the RW. And Alves wont be benched certainly not unless we get another manager.

The better way is to get Suarez/Aguero, people who can actually beat their markers and create space. Or play with a CF to pin the CB's and create space for Messi.

As an arsenal fan I feel your pain regarding a wide man who can beat players. Makes such a difference. If barca want they can attract the best. An aguero, suarez would help a great deal. Hazard would of been a good purchase too

Iniesta is allowed to roam in his wing role, making him very deadly. With the flank overloaded, width isn't a huge concern because of constantly switching the play between left and right flanks this prevents opposition from just crowding out players, and so Iniesta doesn't NEED to act as a true winger. Tello can definitely provide width on the other flank as well. Against parked buses I'd say this could work because the amount of threat on the left is so huge that it could break down the defense with ease. If they cram the left side, there's also a right sided threat for backup. It's not as predictable in a sense and Tello is a better attacking option than Pedro who was used earlier.

He was our best on the night. That is all.

as much as i love his skills vision and dribbling one must say he cant decide games like messi does and thats whats missing.. if messi doesnt score we are doomed... iniesta really needs to step up with his scoring although his pace istn really impressive imo.. so disappointed from him

 

[ZenI]

IMO should have played the left flank and Song in midfield. All those corner kicks killed us, we could have used Song + he would stop more attacks through the middle.

 

[Besart23]

He owned Javi Martinez with a backheel pass, can you gif that moment please. Its urgent

Iniesta: "if we want to keep on winning, we have to improve many things. Not talking about 4-5 transfers, it starts with those who are here"

Like a coach.

do you think he meant tito ?

 

[Galning]

Of course not.

 

[Flavia]

Iniesta was talking about the players.

 

[DennyCrane]

With 'like a coach' I mean that Iniesta talks like one. Bartomeu came up with the idea of buying 4-5 players apparently, Iniesta thinks it's more important that the players step it up now. I approve of that.

i know what u mean with like a coach

we have almost the same team as the one that won the CL playing out of this world football,this is what angers me and I believe the rest of the fans,its not that we are spoiled by success but we want this golden generation to win as much as possible due to the immense talent they have

 

[BarcafaninIllinois]

Iniesta is right, the team (players who are already on the squad) has to start playing better period, no matter what.
