Not really. Most of them were forward passes. Not that it matters anyway, you will notice if you watch Barcelona that Xavi and Iniesta pass backwards all the time.
i agree, he shouldnt be holding, but when lucas is back he wont be
yes, but liverpool's midfield doesnt dominate the game the way barca does.
i dont see any resembalnce to xavi, shudnt compare such younglings to legends, especially ones who've won pretty much anything ther is to win, frm Cl to world cup to euro to la liga..
I never said it did. But the style is broadly similar, Barcelona's is faster and with shorter passes.
barcelona is much better, period…
Barcelona have had 6 years to tweak and improve. Liverpool have a squad designed for another style, and have had 2 months, with clear signs of progress.
no, u r wrong… These barca playes have not been doing it fr only 6 years, they hav been on it fr 14-24 years, cz they hav been doing it their whole lives, since they were kids at la masia. Liverpool cant do it, because this style is innate, ur born wit it and developed early on, which is why some say this barca is one of the greatest club sides of all time, but not only tht, spain are perhaps the greatest national team of all time, not a coincidence that its the same players fr club andcountry
They didn't adapt tiki taka as they play now until Guardiola came in, and you'll find before him, they didn't win as many trophies and they lost games that they'd walk, they actually lost 1-2 to Liverpool in 2007 at Camp Nou. I take your point that Xavi is 30 years(ish) old and has passed well for a long time, but the Barcelona of 6 years ago is not the same as this one. Spain aren't the greatest team ever, they're the best at the moment. The saying still goes "It's just like watching Brazil".
2001–barca liverpool at anfield-30 passes goal——go watch
30 passes, final pass xavi hernandez, ripped liverpool apart at anfield. So pls, i hope u realize that barca r the kings of this style, no 1 cn take it frm them fr now, cz players like xavi ineista, were born, molded and bred in this style of play.
its the same style, but not as effective b4. My point is the truth, i live in barcelona terrasa and i hav seen some of the greatest players of all time, nonetheless, all had to adapt to this style, but none hav been more effective than the trio of messi xavi iniesta, not a coincidence they r all youth team products..
Liverpool players aren't food enough. we're need to spend 100 million on james mclean, lee cattermole, james morrison and ryan shawcross.
these are world class pro's
you make a video of joe allen and call it tiki taka and for more than half of the video he is running with the ball taking players on and shooting. i doubt you know what tiki taka really means.
Hopefully we will see a more attacking Joe Allen now Lucas is back
First of All I''m not a Barca fan not do I like Xavi the diver in the first place.
But Joe Allen 97% accuracy is in 50% horizontal 5 inch passes and other 50% are back passes.
LFC sold Alonso for 24-26m to Madrid and Bought players like Henderson for 20m and Joe Allen for 15m.
What a gr8 board we have ….
the video is all about football but the music is talking about american football
New Iniesta Xavi No
Joe Allen is awful
Joe Allen has not been playing up to his potential, it's true, but it is important that he still has the potential. It's because he hasn't been in his own position for this whole year since the Olympics.
LOL.
it's clear he's a v good player, but he hasn't been performing nearly as well as he was for swansea. I think he needs a fresh start, and by that I don't mean a new club, I mean the summer off, get himself rested and a chance for him to look in the mirror, sort it out and gain confidence back a little.
New Xavi… LOL He's useless. Rather play Spearing.
He will be great this season.
He's fucking shit!
New xavi? Deluded
a confidant joe allen is whats missing from our team right now , some 1 who can receive the ball in a tight spot ,keep the ball moving , aswell as he's other talents, i also think its stevie's place he should take , cant see that happening tho .
Wow this video made me feel dizzy he has fast feet and thats not a new xavi thats a new iniesta with more attacking abilities but slightly less vision than xavi
