    No question one of the greatest midfielders of the modern game and an all time great period. Was a joy to watch him do his thing at his peak when he played with Barcelona.

    One of the greatest players ever to grace the beautiful game, that Barca team at their height were the greatest club side in World football, one of the best ever, maybe even thee best.

    He fully embraced his time in Japan didn't he. Usually a player like that would go for a year or so. He's been there for 5 year..

    An absolutely phenomenal player..

    Iniesta will still play for Vissel in a friendly against Barcelona at Tokyo's National Stadium on June 6. He will play one half for Barça and the other for Vissel.

    hopefully spurs to stop any chances of them stealing Ange

    what a player, no wonder he got a standing ovation when subbed at Parkhead despite him and his teammates schooling our Celtic, we appreciate world class

    Surely Kyogo can convince him to come along for a season.

    A phenomenon. The kind of player you watch football for. Mad that Barca had at least three of those "once in a generation" players in the same team.

    Stupidly talented footballer, he had absolutely everything in his locker and more importantly he was as graceful as a swan when he was doing it.

    Some of the clips of him wriggling out of tight spots with 4 men around him and picking a through ball from nothing remind you why you love the beautiful game.
