Xavi was a world class player earlier too but his qualities became much more emphasized under Pep.

So before being coached by Pep how was Xavi regarded?

    Pirlo I’m biased (🇮🇹 bloodline speaking) but seeing Pirlo play on TV or on a football pitch, it was like seeing a Master at work pure Art.

    Although I think that Xavi was somehow like a catalyst because 2008 I would argue that Andres Iniesta was a better player than Xavi was. But is that related to the fact that Iniesta had a more "visible " role? I can’t answer.

    But then again, for me nobody (except Zidane probably) surpassed Andrea Pirlo
