Lampard and Seedorf are great, but Xavi won 2 trebles, 2 euros and a world cup. There is no competition.
Xavi's 08/09 season is the best season for any midfielder ever.
This is about skillset not silverware
@@redfordreddington8834 he was literally the system for delivery Bosque and pep
@nitinpandey3616 he was a benchwarmer until Pep took over.
@@redfordreddington8834 in what world a bench warmer plays 35 league matches a season? Negative iq displayed by u
@@redfordreddington8834 He was on bench because he tore his ACL in '05. Will take a good year or two to recover from that. And for the skills he was considered a perfect midfielder, his pausa, vision, passing and ability to find spaces are unmatched.
I didnt even know seedorf is managing
He has been for years, he was in charge of us at Milan for a year
XAVI STARTS!!! Not even a question. He is a cut above.
Not really, he isn't as good as Seedorf defensively, or in attack, and seedorf is way more versatile as well, Seedorf can literally play anywhere in midfield and be great at it
Why is Xavi starting?
no he does not ability wise he is literally the worst of the 3. before 2008 nobody is putting Xavi ahead of those two
Cut above ? u are delusional sir. Xavi you need barca ball, or else he aint that good
Seedorf and xavi together on the same team is a death wish to the opposition 😅
Funny that you compare Xavi who win it all vs any other midfielder
Zidane won it all…even a ballon d’Or
@@GIBBO4182Ballon d'Or is an arbitrary, perception-based award that has produced a lot of aberrations. If it were based on merit alone, Xavi would've won one in the late 2000s. Xavi was more consistent than Zidane in terms of controlling play. But he was less spectacular which hurts the perception we have of him in relative terms.
@@zalemdreams it's not exactly an arbitrary award, and the OP was implying that you can't compare anyone to Xavi...when of course you can
@@GIBBO4182 When Messi wins Ballon d'Or in 2010, it is proof that the award is vulnerable to arbitrary thinking. You can also make that case for Nedved. It's absurd that Xavi never won it, but his style of play - i.e. not spectacular - wasn't conducive to winning this award. But anyway, the only other midfielders in the same tier as Xavi are Mattheus and Zidane in the modern era.
@@zalemdreams just because someone won it one time that you didn’t agree with, doesn’t make it arbitrary though!
Xavi is a starter lol
Why?
Nop.
Clarence Seedorf is a legend 🙌 👏
He has won UCL trophy with different teams.
Its not bad question xavi starts any day of the week then seedorf and lampard
Do you know Seedorf, put some respect on him.
@@Kwami357 i know who seedorf is lol but he is not xavi level
@@sushantrawal2068You do know that Seedorf has won the same amount of champions league trophies as Xavi don't ya at 4 a piece 😒
Where is his world cup then if youre going with this logic technically xavi is way ahead of seedorf @@thebat7048
Bad answer by you lol who are you again 🤨 He is legend
Seedorf just for the sheer versatility and being excellent in every position literally. Better than both Lampard and Xavi defensively. Great in attack, great centrally or on the wing. He literally played everywhere for us at Milan, in his final years he was even playing as a inside for behind the striker with Kaka, and that brought us the 2007 Champions League. Seedorf was just something else, Champions league titles with Madrid, Ajax, and 2 with us at Milan. Incredible footballer.
Xavi is just a level above the rest, there's no debate.
I really enjoy this particular panel with Dan as host. It's interesting how the interactions are different depending on who is there.
I do enjoy Craig's salty moodiness and he has some interesting takes but sometimes he is too domineering. Dan is the only one that can shut him down when he goes too far but I have noticed some feisty exchanges between Jan and he. Makes for good TV.
Xavi > Seedorf >>> Lampard
Nonsense. Lampard is the greatest English footballer in history and yes, everyone agrees he was better than Gerrard, Scholes, Gascoigne and Charlton combined,
And Xavi is the greatest player in Spain's history.
Stop seedorf is better than xavi ,xavi only good at number 6 position
@@FredEmberg4444 did you say best English player in history lmao?
@@tamnadvardis7039Nonsense. Xavi is simply better and can play anywhere in midfield. Won the World Cup with Spain playing the number 10 position and mostly played 8 for Barcelona.
Did you people not watch Seedorf? BEAST...🔥🔥🔥🔥
What do you have in your heart Steve? Cholesterol!😂😂😂😂
How is that question even hard about Xavi, lampard and seedorf? A clear win Xavi not even debatable
I love EXTRA TIME WITH STEVIE AND ALI . That's the only EXTRA TIME I watch
Welcome Ale❤
Lampard, Xavi, Seedorf could be a wonderful midfield all 3 together.
Seedorf was not good enough on the ball to hang with Xavi. Madrid let him go and Inter benched him.
14:09 😂😂
Unbiased king Mario. Drops seedorf after just texting him the other day lol
5:40 Stevie is ETH in, apparently. And rightfully so.
Xavi is the greatest playmaker of all time. Theres been none better than him at that particular position. He even made FIFA's all time best 11 a few years back, and would have won the Ballon D'Or in 2010 if someone other than Iniesta had scored the winning goal for Spain in the WC final (they took a lot of votes from each other which made Messi win it when he was 3rd favourite that year).
Couldn't the exact same points stevie's using for porch be said about ten hag?
Exactly 😂
Was or is Ale a manager????????
Stevie’s cold 🥶 when actual men played football
2:20 This whole question is an argument for getting rid of players like Rashford, Shaw, McTominay, et al. Pretty much any player at United that's gone through 4 different managers with 4 different styles and still can't cut it needs to be removed. The problem is the Glazers don't allow managers to do that.
12:38 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Xavi is a deep laying playmaker, Seedorf is a box to box CM, Lampard is a goal scoring CAM. You can play them all at the time.
Believe me, Liverpool won’t be arsed against Atalanta……concentrating on the PL
Xavi > Seedorf > Lampard
Xavi is the whom coach can trust with the ball. He keeps the ball like no other players and distribute like a charm.
Xavi obv starts. I'd pick prime seedorf over prime lampard, but it's so close. Can't go wrong with either really
stevie spitting facts about giving the manager a chance, so many plastic fans expect a manger to come in and make instant change or impact yes xabi alonso did it but that’s not the normal… it takes time, and the fans these days will never understand that and shout get them out after 1-2 bad seasons
Pep set the standard to make other club to be a success in a matter of 1 - 2 seasons ... klopp took 3 seasons to make Liverpool top team again .. Ferguson took 3-4 seasons to make m.u. great again.. that's why Chelsea & m.u. in the last 2-3 years keep changing managers . The mindset nowadays is to be a success in just one season.
Seedorf, Xavi, Lampard
There could be 2 treble winners
Men without Honour
Xavi is the greatest central midfielder of all time ahead of or alongside Mattheus.
Chelsea can't sign players and they are likely to face big points penalty next winter... (these ESPN contributors constantly forget this)
Don't compare xavi to any midfield of his position because the world have never seen any of him. Simply the best in world football.
Seedorf>Xavi>Lampard
Quite hypocritical there from Mr Nicol regarding giving managers time cause I remember, him and his positivity pal calling for Ten Hag to get the sack! Why does he not deserve to be gvien the "4 years it took Fergie to get rid of his players"?
Just put saka at left back and start Palmer on the right. Saka is really overrated to me.
agree,,,,,one trick pony who will peak and fade by age 24
Start xavi bench seedorf and sub him on for someone else right away
Get a grip!…..palmer no way to start……he’s way down the order!
Xavi is the best Spanish player in history. Come on, man.
These dumbos at EPL, Madrid won 2 UCLs bcoz of Seedorf especially during the time united, ac milan, bayern, inter, dortmund were all insane!!
Seedorf was merely very good. That’s it. Imo overrated. Slow to read the game.
Dumbest question ever. Xavi won a league title
Seedorf starts for me. Xavi is better than Lampard but with no Iniesta along side him the telepathic play associated with him iis not the same.
Seedorf gives you the qualities of both and he's physically stronger so if it's to choose just one I'm picking him, benching Xavi, and dropping Frank.
Bad take bro 😂
Nah 😅
2006 world cup plus iniesta played as a winger in the great spain teams
Nonsense. Lampard is the greatest English footballer in history and yes, everyone agrees he was better than Gerrard, Scholes, Gascoigne and Charlton combined,
@@FredEmberg4444 Everyone is entitled to their opion and there are people here who've responded to my post disagreeing with me and that's fine...... but.....if you think Frank Lampard is a better player than Paul Gasgoine.......you need to stop watching Football and go play Golf or something. Absolute nonsense.
Over hyped English man😂😂😂😂
You do know English players are overrated when you’re comparing them to other elite players.. lampard isn’t even close to these two
Lampard was literally the best of the 3 whist they were playing lmao
Man dis-United are as about as stale as they come…..
Where is the GOAT, that will win the UCL for us, Luis Enrique himself??? Bruh, madddd.
He won't win you the ucl so just shut up. Even Villa would beat you 5-0🤣🤣🤣
Dream on, bro! Dream on😏
@PSG_Supremacy 5 UCL's to your 0. Bring it!
@@TrickShot210 Bro, Mbappe alone, when he turns up, will finish your backline, and make the job exponentially easier for us.🤣🤣
@@obioraokoye4377 only if he can find his way out of a 17 year old Cubarsì's pocket🤷♂️ rumor has it he's still been in there since Paris🤪
Play lampard, bench seedoff and drop xavi.
1. Lampard 2. Seedorf 3. Xavi
BARCELONA WILL LOSE THE FINAL TO ARSENAL
yes we will win the ucl
@@drty8765-ef1fd you believe too ❤️
@@RobsonFootball winning the ucl against the odds would be incredible
Stop disrespecting Xavi like this
Start: Frank Lampard
Bench: Xavi Hernandez
Sell: Clarence Seedorf
