In 2006, Iniesta wasn’t even playing. Busquets started playing for Spain in 2010. Stop disrespecting Alonso. He started playing for Spain when Busquets was playing in the academy.

    @@user-pw6gm1tu6q Is that a joke? Xabi Alonso was a nailed-down starter for Spain from 2006-2014. The only time he wasn't was in 2008 Euros that was down to the formation they went with (Busquets wasn't even playing then). He still played every game and he won a MOTM in 2008 Euros. In fact, when Spain was experimenting with 4-3-3 formations during the off seasons (2009, 2011, 2013) they picked Xabi Alonso over Busquets most of the time due to his ability to read the game better, better defending, and he has the best passing range in the national side (if not in Spanish history). Xabi Alonso is one of the best DMs for a reason. He has proven that time and time again across many different world class teams.

    Mourinho will only get his credit for that the day he retires or dies, people are really dismissing and downplaying what he did in Madrid. Barca was dominating world football at that time and Mourinho broke that. I don't think any other coach would have done it, not even Ferguson.

    Guardiola style demands a specific type of player. Barca team at that time fit his style perfectly. He created one of the best team ever. This team will be remembered for decades to come. Bayern team did not and combined with lack of funds from the board, he could not do much. Dominate the local competition but mediocre in Champions League. His Bayern team will not be remembered unlike his Barca team. Man City with unlimited funds helps Guardiola to find the right players for his style. The last 2-3 years he perfected the team and got unlucky when lost to Real Madrid. This year is the time to complete his project in Man City, to win the Champions League. Guardiola style is still there but it's not the same like in Barca. Xavi, Iniesta and Busquet are rare players and hard to find players that can play like them.

    The players at Bayern were more of a Pep type of players than at City... Kompany, Otamendi, Delph, Fernandinho, Walker, Sterling, Ake and others i might have forgotten, are not traditionally a Pep type of players. He adapted to these players and made them better. Go back and look at that Bayern team and you'll see for yourself.

It had seemed Pep lost faith in him and he was out of the team for 2 years... I think most people wrote him off. I have to say I wasn't convinced of him until last year. And this year after seeing him in midfield without missing a beat... that's impressive. I think that is down to Pep's genius. When it comes to all time CB's I would still prefer Ferdinand, Van Dijk, Kompany but those guys never moved in and out of midfield seamlessly.

    He already is a very good coach. He took bayer from relegation to 7. place and was just missing the euro league final yesterday. Bayer played with an high tactical level and was dominating as roma yesterday. Mourinho parked the bus successfully and thats ligit but in terms of tactics xabi outplayed mourinho yesterday and its incedible how he made every player better. But you are right. He will need another season to prove it. I might be yet alone with this opinion but i think he can take leverkusen up to be bayern contender if the club manages to keep some of the players for one season. Time will tell but i predict he will manage a team he played in like Real, Liverpool or Bayern one day.

    You can tell Xabi is dancing the line of what he can say, versus what he wants to reveal. He's still sharing enough for it to be informative, but there's plenty he isn't sharing. I won't fan the flames of LFC speculation (while blatantly fanning the flames (upon reflection)) but I can see why he's highly regarded - it's true that certain managers have something about them that generates an aura, and he seems to have that.
