I'm going to avoid adding a poll, as I'm looking for more discussion on the matter, instead of seeing who the outright winner would be.
I'm looking to ban polls.

Xavi is a better passer in my opinion, he's got a much better range of passing. Iniesta is a better dribbler, he doesnt get enough credit for how quick his feet are or his technique.
Overall though, I'd plump for Xavi

If you're comparing them based on how good they are in in each of there respective roles, then Xavi for me.

Not really, most people just see them as a carbon copy of each other.

Do they? I've always seen Iniesta as a much more advanced player than Xavi who is able to cause defences more problems with his quickness and agility more than his passing.Sean wrote:arsenalap11 wrote:Sean wrote:I think they're more different than people give them credit for.

Probably more to do with their partnership rather than their abilities.Sean wrote:People always discuss them as a pair though, its always Xavi and Iniesta, they never just talk about them seperatley

Hmm.. don't think so myself. Anyone that knows a reasonable amount about football knows that they're different.
