Stats don’t mean shiit. That’s why De Bruyne won MOTM for the game against Canada while being one of the worst players on the pitch. Always using Sofascore to rate football players instead of actually sitting down and watching football games. That’s why Ibime will come here and say Iniesta played as a CAM

I can’t watch Kante winning 90% of the ball for some kid in the next 10 yrs to hop on the internet and tell me Kante was not good by going to Wikipedia to pull some stupid statistics of the number of goals and assists he got in his career.

donstan18:
Between Inesta and Xavi, none carried each other, none could function without each other, none played same style and both never impressed when played without each other.

Make Una dead this agenda!!

Stop playing nice.

Say it as it is.

Call him the FRAUD for which he is

TLona1:
If Messi doesn't win the World Cup, he'll be criticized heavily and won't get all these sympathy Ronaldo has been getting.

That's absolutely fine by me because he's the GOAT.

A40:
Iniesta is a great player on his own merit that you can prop him without disrespecting Xavi.

And then to bring up those seasons 05/06 and 14/15 seasons like Iniesta was even a top 5 contributor is just criminal

Iniesta is the underboss to Xavi. So me I don't even see the angle of comparison since they don't do the same work. I can even argue that Xavi is better at his primary job than Iniesta is at his but that's neither here nor there.

Just put some respeck on Xavi's name

donstan18:

You enjoy him getting insulted, harassed and slandered?

zeusis:

popizaino would really be happy seeing this

izzou:


You can praise any player because of their attributes. There is nothing wrong with that.

Kante can be anybody's legend. But when you want to compare him to anybody, be sure to have proof, which most likely rest on his personal efforts (stats)

Iniesta is a good player. But the moment you put him next to Xavi, and say he is better, he becomes a Fraud; Scamdres Fraudniesta

hensben:
Football is lawn tennis na so he won two euros and World Cup against roger Federer and was the best player in all the tournaments.

izzou:


Stats will always always matter.

If you are an attacker, you must have goal contributions. That is your duty, and you have to show it.

Dancing Amapiano and Zanku won't change it.

Messi is good, and his stats are there to show it
Ronaldo is good, and his stats are there to show it.

So telling us that some are good because you watch them, yet their primary duty has poor records, has to be the new yahoo format for 2022.

Xavi who is behind Iniesta has more goal contributions than him, but you want to tell us Iniesta is better because you watched him baa?

Blasphemy should not only be attributed to religious statements, walahi

popizaino:


Point of correction,Iniesta is not a good player but an excellent world class player. Now saying iniesta is not up to Xavi because of some silly stats should make you rate Fabregas and David Silva ahead of Xavi.......You know their stats are more impressive than that of Hernandez?

donstan18:

How many semis did Inesta player after Xavi left Barcelona?

Adiwana:


Stats will never show you that Lewandoski had a 2x balon d’or seasons and won 0. The next generation of football fans don’t care about that since anybody can pull out stats from fifa. Hell, I can tell you that’s he’s not one of the greatest strikers the game has ever seen based on that argument alone.

Messi and Ronaldo with all their balon d’ors have 0 world cups. Based on that, they’re not the GOATS. You’re not a GOAT in this game if you don’t win the ultimate price.

We can easily go down this road of stats and start pulling out stats of all the greats in the game

izzou:


Stop playing nice.

Say it as it is.

donstan18:

Xavi was a nobody before Inesta.

popizaino:



How many UCL semifinals did Lampard played after Drogba left?

izzou:


To you? YESS SIRRRR

Iniesta don turn God wey dey uplift person

popizaino:



You know football is not lawn tennis but you have the temerity to tell us Messi was the one doing it in Barcelona


Abi na only Messi dey play for Barca?

izzou:


You are calling trophies and awards, my brother. That is not what i am interested in.

Show us their individual stats. Lewandowski is a striker. Bring out his career stats as a striker. C'est fini.

Trophies are won by a team effort. Attributing it to one player sounds mischievous to me.

So if Argentina loses tomorrow, we will blame Messi abi? Knowing fully well that he played his part to bring them here.

Just bring the players individual stats.

Sportsweb:
But check it out.. Xavi, Iniesta, Neymar and co couldn't win Balon D'or in Ronaldo and Messi era. Modric did it and it's massive

Adiwana:


Ronaldo has over 800 goals in his career but can’t even score 1 goal in a knockout game in a World Cup. For that reason all those goals he scored is absolutely meaningless since he can’t even attribute one in the most footballing event. How is Ronaldo a GOAT if he can’t even score not to talk about winning the World Cup trophy?

popizaino:



Yes Messi was also in Spain doing the things. I wonder why the same messi didn't do it in Argentina and why he didn't do it without iniesta to get pass inter Milan in 2010 UCL semifinals. Oh sorry he was waiting on another iniesta's Stamford bridge moments.



It is messi doing it but iniesta had on unbeaten record of 55games while messi doing it has 48games.


I just hope messi does it this time around without iniesta.

afrodoc2:





A40 said this




And this was your reply.





Which Under-16 and Under-17 World Cups did Iniesta win gold medal in?

popizaino:



He was runner up in U-20.


Won Gold medal in U-16 and U17 respectively.

popizaino:




U-19 and U-17.

You want to start getting ahead of yourself



Tell us what happened in 2010 UCL semifinals with Xavi without iniesta ? We know iniesta has been producing pedestrian contributions to Barcelona success ?

Guy tells us what you really want...
do you want Kova, Kante, or who.. its a friendly match for God's sake.

izzou:


You can call Iniesta an excellent world class player. I have no problem with that.

But when you put him up with Xavi, please and please, kindly ensure you Xavi is rightful place.
