@BasicsFan If you,re telling me you never saw a Premiership match on Sky Sports well thats fair enough , my bad , but all im asking is how can you call someone that has never given a world class display for his country a world class player ? So how can he play beside anyone ?Beside Lampard rubbish , Barry rubbish, Scholes,etc etc and for his club , Lucas rubbish, Spearing Rubbish, Mascherano, rubbish etc , so tell me who was the last player Xavi didnt play well with ?
-
@BasicsFan once again you havent got a clue , Xavi was in the Barcelona team long before Iniesta or Messi and won the champions league when the others were not first team regulars, He has been Spains best midfielder for going on 12 years now and he has got some competition there , Gaerrard has hardly even had a good let alone great game for hes country but oh wait he scored 2 vrs Hungary, not exactly running the show in 3 Champions league , a European Championship , and World Cup finals is it ?

@BasicsFan thats my whole point you didnt hear about Xavi because Sky Sports never stop talking shite about Gerrard and Lampard , and these so called great English players , and the only way you prob did hear of him is when he destroyed UTD in the champions league final ,tell me the last WORLD CLASS performance Gerrard has given on the world stage ? Ive been watching football a long time and can honestly say Xavi is the only player ive ever seen never to have a stinker , let me know if u find 1

@EricCartman1st what is xavi without Iniesta/Messi ??? gerrard played fantastic alongside anybody
xavi didnt

@EricCartman1st really heard much about xavi for the last 3-4 years&the question was if gerrard is one of the world greatest players and i came up with that argument that he can fill more positions than xavi can..thats makes a better player and also he played outstanding football for liverpool over a decade!
and the only abilitys xavi has got are passing, skill and control.
steven gerrards abilitys are pace,skill,control,passing(esp
acilly long range),crosses,shooting&defend ing. -
@BasicsFan that has to be the most retarded statement ive ever read , the whole argument is who is the best CENTRAL midfield player in the world , not who can fill in on the right or left or behind a striker , by that twisted logic John O Sea is the best player in the world , hes played left right and center back , defensive central right and left midfield and even in goals , and to say Xavi has only been good for 3 years shows your complete lack of knowledge of other leagues .

xavi can only play CM Gerrard can play nearly everywhere on the pitch and he proved his class over the last ten years xavi did only for about 3 years

@yourdate4tonight no hold on a minute Gerrard is according to you the greatest midfielder in the world and a i quote a top top player going on ten years , you have giving nothing but excuses and blame other players for Gerrards poor performances , if it was just one or two poor games you would say something , tell me when was the last not good but great game Gerrard played for England , and when was hes last great performance for Liverpool now tell me the last time you saw Xavi have a shocker ?
i think what he means by nothing player is , if you listen to the english media they would have you belive gerrard is one of the greatest players in football history hes a one man team , paul merson called him the best player in the world on soccer saterday , total bullshit , what dumphy means is when we remember the greats of the game pele best maradona messi ronaldo 9 xavi iniesta zidane van basten cruff ronaldinho , gerrard is nothing in those terms , not that hes a nothing player in general
