Andrés Iniesta

Him bitching might have cost us Coutinho

Why? Coutinho didn't play for Liverpool and he did everything he could to force a move.

Sorry, I couldn't follow your logic.

I am talking about Iniesta saying that he feels disrespected and probably have been demanding to be a starter. As a result, Valverde the eunuch has stopped pressuring the board to sign a starter CM

 

[Richard.H]

He isn't a starter anymore. He will get run over by a lot of mids in Europe who are younger, more agile, and stronger than him.

[MENTION=14]Iniesta[/MENTION] Dude, clearly Spain and Barca are still in the denial phase. You need to do the right thing and tell them that they cannot rely on you anymore.

You are one of my all time favorites, but you are a dead weight now my friend.

Iniesta dissecting Italy. Dem passes good Lord

 

[DonAK]

Another player who looks good with better support around him in a proper system. He still cannot play consecutive games, but he is still able to contribute if you give him a helping hand. This Italy team is not bad at all.

 

[Devils]

He's playing so good and really seems to be enjoying himself.

Probably why we've haven't seen him like this for Barca is awhile.

Long through-ball carpet passes onto feet into the box. While he's certainly getting older, his 'decline" is far more a reflection of Barça's system and players than on him.

Seen him look past it for Spain as well. He looked done vs Italy in last euros.

This Italy team playing two up top to hit on break is suiting Spain to dominate midfield.

Also Spain don't have anyone who does little defending as Iniesta does at Barca. Could get away with more if it was just to cover him.

Players he is with are better but Iniesta legs are still long past what they were. Has declined a lot.

 

[clemente]

He always plays like a god for Spain, nothing new here, and I don't think its because of the players around him, because for Barca he plays with pretty much the same players or maybe even better.. Isco is the only one that is an upgrade there.

 

[fergus90]

Absolutely first class tonight. What a legend.

 

[barcanuck]

Is he back?

 

[JerseyAddict]

WC play today.

Still has it, we just need to limit his minutes and he can still put in world class performances. If we get that far we need a well rested Iniesta from the QF on in the Champions League

He was well rested last season although Luchos tactic did him no favours. I think a team with him and Messi will still get totally outworked and fucked on the break against any decent teams.
