    Amazing that neither Iniesta nor Xavi ever won World Player of The Year / Ballon D'Or.

    Shows just how high the standard is in this generation of players.

    Unlucky that his career coincided with the Messi/Ronaldo domination.
    As much about that as it is that Messi/Ronaldo score the goals and therefore get the glory, whereas Xavi/Iniesta play a less 'flashy' role.

    I was surprised that the last non Ronaldo/Messi winner was Kaka, back in 2007!

    It was tight in 2013.

    Amazing that in 2005 there were 2 english players in the top 3

    Duncan Edwards aged, what, 21? A remarkable career in the making, sadly lost.

    The Legend played his last game for Barcelona last night.

    The game was a 19.45 kick off.

    At 1.00AM Iniesta was still on the pitch in his kit with his shoes off.

    Shows how much the club means to him and what a player he has been.

    There is already a thread for players leaving clubs, you did not need to start a new one @paulie8290

    Personal view is he is not tall enough and I would prefer someone with League One experience like Carruthers at Shef Utd.

    If he cared that much he wouldn’t be off to China.

    He can't last 90 minutes for Barcelona anymore. I think he's recognised he ca no longer play at the top level in terms of fitness. Why not take a payday for the last couple of years? He's nothing left to prove whatsoever.
    Yer, has probably earnt fuck all in his career ....
    So Iniesta has realised he can't compete as he wants to at the top level anymore but still wants to play. What do you suggest he does?

    They get Iniesta... we get this...
    I know what I'd prefer tbh, I doubt Iniesta knows how to wash up..

    I don't get it. Just retire as a one club man, rather than having a footnote club at the end of your career that nobody will remember or care about.

    At 400k a week - his bank manager will remember and care.

    If it's good enough for Pele, then it's good enough for anyone

    From what i've read, the move is also aimed at Iniesta promoting/launching his wine business in the far east.

    It'll be interesting how he gets on, whether he can still do his magic when surrounded by mediocre players
