Is Xavi the best dictating CM of all time?

The guy is just ridiculous. Every final the man has made teams look obsolete.

For Me Yes. .IMO Best CM in the history of Football.

2 euros 1 WC am sure he cemented his name in history already

Best CM of all time. Period.

Dictating is superfluous.

yeah... only reason pirlo is in the discussion is becouse people dont want to admit xavi is the GOAT CM.

xavi is miles ahead of pirlo imo. pirlo is great, but xavi is just greater.

who do you think is the 2nd best CM of all time? just curious

Best CM in the World definitely.

Yep, without a doubt

as i asked someone else, who do you think the 2nd best is? as you seem to have a solid grasp of who the best is, you must know who he is better than?

maradona?

xavi plays for spain

pirlo for italy

was like watching

xavi + 9 others VS pirlo + himself

I mean I think it's pretty obvious. This board is the only place where you get arguments about it for what ever reason (probably because he plays for Barca).

It's just hard to give Xavi all the credit when you can't really put Iniesta in a box like saying he's a CM to compare with Xavi cause he really isn't, and Xavi gets the joy of playing by his side for club and country.

Iniesta is just such a great player I hate giving all the credit to Xavi.

But yes Xavi is the best CM.

I agree, was MOTM for me.

if i am biased then Vieira but he was more of "B2B" So other then that, Paulo falcao

but people dont give all credit to xavi. they praise him only as best CB ever. Iniesta in other hand is best AM

you could argue falcao was also more B2B

Without a doubt!

I thought, today though, he played a more direct role, like he was asked to play all tournament.

Made the incisive passes, let Xabi and Busi dominate the midfield, when we were ahead drpped back to consolidate with them.

Flawless adapting of roles for the team

I'm going to have to hop on this bandwaggon

Xavi The GOAT and Euro Final master.

Finally Xavi-Alonso-Busquets clicked... all brilliant today.

Xaviesta was on fire.

Guti was one of the best CM's I've seen. If only he was consistent.

I would think so

Is this like a relevation?

I mean, did a couple games of him playing out of position really change anyones thought process on this?

And did him playing like he did in the final change anything?

No. He is the best in the game, period.

science is great , thanks to science we now have a greatest player out of utterly mediocre player , thanks
