Is Xavi a top 10 CM all time?

Mauro's sig

Xavi played defensive mid in Barca and it stalled his career fine shagger?

But Xavi including in top 10 cm's ever is acceptable because he has been unstoppable.

Your arguments lacks any sort of cognitive reasoning and dismisses plenty of information willy-nilly, not to mention that it blatantly disregards anything I've previously written. You frankly make the children in the EA forum seem intelligent. Hell of an achievement.

funny that u mention ea, i think u should move back there, u have been shown up as having lack of knowledge. my post clearly picks every part of your post apart and destroys each point. france average-incorrect, france players past their prime-incorrect, domenech horrible-incorrect

willy nilly reasoning, i really like that statement. trezeguet scored about 30 willy nilly goals leading up to that world cup, definitely past his prime

pity i dont have the beasting list anymore, u would be a nice addition

Let me use bullet points to outline my argument seeing as you struggle to follow a full-length paragraph.

1) I never said Trezeguet was past his prime, I said he didn't start for France so that piece of information is frankly redundant.
2) Domenech is terrible and if you'd read my previous statements you would realize that he only looked good thanks to Zidane's extraordinary performances. Care to explain why his team was a total and utter shambles in the following Euro and the World Cup? Incompetent cretin.
3) Thuram was past his prime as is evidenced in his performances for Barcelona after the world cup. The same with Vieira but with Inter. They were both on a downward spiral and that also applies for Barthez, Sagnol and Makelele.

You haven't destroyed any of my points, dear. You've just embarrassed yourself and have had to resort to your inane phenomenon of "beasting" to increase your non-existent self-esteem.

mauro's definition of beasting:

To write a load of bollocks, get proven wrong and then run off to have lunch instead of trying to continue the debate.

I truly thank you for providing my night's entertainment, I don't know what I would have done without you.

Yes. I also think Mohamed Aboutrika deserves a mention in top CM/AM of all times.

Top 10 playmakers then?

Irritatingly strong post content to forum name.

Probably lower chance of that than CM TBH.

That's what I was thinking, Idk how to really categorize him then since a lot of people are also adding CAM and CDM under the CM.

I would say so, off the top of my head (which aint saying much ) I can name Zidane, Guillit, Mattheaus and Fernando Redondo who can match his skill

Put that shifty away.

Yes. Easy.

I cant really say so as I honestly don't know much about the best CM players of the past. He's definitely one of the greats though.

Disagree about Eto'o but I wouldn't argue too hardly about the other 2.

I never said he was the most important, I said he was pivotal. He is a machine - bosses every game no matter what importance. Gary fucking Neville?

I brung out Gary Neville because you played the blind idiot card.. the trophy card. The one that says a player like Ryan Giggs is better than Marc Overmars because he won more and was "pivotal" yet in my eyes Overmars shits all over him prime v prime.

Overmars isn't better than Giggs so that's a shit point.

I'm against "the trophy card" for fringe players like David May, but it's a fair argument for key players.

I can't actually remember the last time Xavi played poorly.

Darren Fletcher >> Fabregas.

Zidane is the best.

I don't know tbh, he'd at least be close if not in the top 10. His passing would probably put him in the top 3 ever but as an all round central midfielder there's probably been 10 better in the past.

34 - Xavi made more passes to Dani Alves tonight than any AC Milan player managed to make in the whole game (31: highest).
