Finally this overrated player won't be seen anymore. Extremely overhyped player, it buffles me how anyone can think he's in the top 3 best players in world, its unfair on Iniesta, Arjen robben who offer a lot to the game then he does. Iniesta carried Spain in world cup 2010 and euro 2014 when he underperformed. I'm not saying he isn't good in his position but what else does he offer that will make you entertained? It annoys me he has to take freekick's for barca and spain when he's not good at it. How many times has a single team concentrated on man marking him like they gang up on iniesta, which is enough to show they don't consider him as a big threat.

Are you for real?

Your entire post buffles me.

He's good but putting him as top 3 candidates for worlds best player is taking it too far. No one moment I was awed by one skills and piece of magic, that's why he's extremely overrated.

What? In this tournament or throughout his career?

Throughout his career, he's good in short passes but he's not worthy of being called worlds top 3 best players in his time, thats overrating him. Iniesta dribbles, creates, does some amazing skills, how can anyone think he is better than iniesta is what buffles me.

I'm not even gonna bother trying to justify why i think Xavi is one of the greats in the past 6 - 8 years but I'd recommend you download as many Barcelona games from the Guardiola/Vilanova era and as many Spain games from 2008 - 2012 and watch each and every one of them and then come back and post the same message.

Just a poor mans Leon Britton.

Maybe instead of playing football, we can have a big elaborate keepie-up tournament to see who is the best player instead.
