      My Favourite Player of All Time:
      ● Fabregas was 17 years old during virtually the entirety of his breakthrough season of 04/05 and made 33 league appearances (24 starts) in a side just off the back of winning the previous seasons league without losing a game, finished 2nd in that current campaign and won the FA Cup. Just let that sink in. Absolutely frightening 😲.
      ● Youngest Arsenal goalscorer:
      (16 years 212 days v Wolves Dec 2003)
      Youngest Arsenal goalscorer in League:
      (17 years 113 days v Blackburn Aug 2004)
      Youngest Arsenal goalscorer in Europe:
      (17 years 217 days v Rosenborg Dec 2004)
      ● Only he and Evan Ferguson have 10+ goals/assists to their names as 18 year olds in the Premier League era who weren't from England. Had to get that one in as an Irishman 😄.
      ● Statistics show that in the five years prior to Fàbregas's departure from Arsenal, Fàbregas created 466 goal-scoring chances, made 86 assists and scored 48 goals, all three statistics topping those of new teammates Xavi and Andrés Iniesta, despite both having made more appearances in the same period.
      ● 09/10 League Season: Apps: 27
      Goals: 15
      Assists: 15
      Who knows what numbers he would have finished with that season if he'd avoided a few niggling injuries during the first half of that campaign and not fractured his leg to Barca in March and been ruled out for the remainder of the season. I've no doubt that he would have comfortably broken the record of 20 assists in a PL season and, in all likelihood, would have 20+ League goals to his name alongside it. All from CM at 22 years of age in his second season as club captain as well, it's worth noting.
      ● All-time leader in history of assists for Spanish national team.
      ● Most assists as a CM in the 21st century ahead of the likes of Lampard, Gerrard, Iniesta & Xavi.
      ● Only he & Kevin De Bruyne have recorded 10+ assists in 6 separate seasons in PL era.
      ● 3rd All Time Leader in assists in PL history behind only Ryan Giggs & Kevin De Bruyne.
      ● Made captain of Arsenal at the tender age of 21 as well. He was absolute magic

Those El Clasicos were intense with Pep Vs Mourinho.

    9:53 - This. I've watched Klopp very closely as an avid LFC fan since he arrived and his biggest talent was turning players into winners. Just look at the players he coached, that everyone initially doubted, that went on to win everything at club level - Robertson, Wijnaldum, Hendo, Mane, Salah, Trent, etc (basically the entire squad). Its easy to forget now too that even VVD and Alisson were not world class players when they signed.
    Its not about having a bunch of superstars, its about having players that feel trusted, confident and believe that they can win any game.

    It's fine playing players slightly out of position, so long as they're still following a pattern of play that's similar to their club role, imo.
    As for reading the game, intelligent players, you can improve it slightly but, it's not really something you can teach imo and often a problem in the prem, selecting for physical ability rather than intelligent. The best players tend to have both, but you can't lack intelligence, to be the best of the best.

      My Favourite Player of All Time:
      ● Fabregas was 17 years old during virtually the entirety of his breakthrough season of 04/05 and made 33 league appearances (24 starts) in a side just off the back of winning the previous seasons league without losing a game, finished 2nd in that current campaign and won the FA Cup. Just let that sink in. Absolutely frightening 😲.
      ● Youngest Arsenal goalscorer:
      (16 years 212 days v Wolves Dec 2003)
      Youngest Arsenal goalscorer in League:
      (17 years 113 days v Blackburn Aug 2004)
      Youngest Arsenal goalscorer in Europe:
      (17 years 217 days v Rosenborg Dec 2004)
      ● Only he and Evan Ferguson have 10+ goals/assists to their names as 18 year olds in the Premier League era who weren't from England. Had to get that one in as an Irishman 😄.
      ● Statistics show that in the five years prior to Fàbregas's departure from Arsenal, Fàbregas created 466 goal-scoring chances, made 86 assists and scored 48 goals, all three statistics topping those of new teammates Xavi and Andrés Iniesta, despite both having made more appearances in the same period.
      ● 09/10 League Season: Apps: 27
      Goals: 15
      Assists: 15
      Who knows what numbers he would have finished with that season if he'd avoided a few niggling injuries during the first half of that campaign and not fractured his leg to Barca in March and been ruled out for the remainder of the season. I've no doubt that he would have comfortably broken the record of 20 assists in a PL season and, in all likelihood, would have 20+ League goals to his name alongside it. All from CM at 22 years of age in his second season as club captain as well, it's worth noting.
      ● All-time leader in history of assists for Spanish national team.
      ● Most assists as a CM in the 21st century ahead of the likes of Lampard, Gerrard, Iniesta & Xavi.
      ● Only he & Kevin De Bruyne have recorded 10+ assists in 6 separate seasons in PL era.
      ● 3rd All Time Leader in assists in PL history behind only Ryan Giggs & Kevin De Bruyne.
      ● Made captain of Arsenal at the tender age of 21 as well. He was absolute magic

    1:58 - Is anyone besides the Spanish people been paying attention to Nico Williams?! The host dismissed Fabregas mention of him to talk again about Lamine Yamal and how's great at 16, bla, bla, bla. Meanwhile, Nico Williams has been breaking defenders and creating tons of chances. We should be talking about Nico Williams, more than Lamine Yamal! He and Ruiz have been the best Spanish players so far.

    • @dionb7584

    Mourinho was angry with Casillas for a reason...players like Xavi & Pique continually attacked Real Madrid in press conferences and they wanted real Madrid players to stay quiet.
    Xabi Alonso and others don't agree with that and they were destroyed by the Spanish biased media but Casillas bend the knee to Xavi for his own benefits cause he doesn't want to hurt his reputation defending Real Madrid as a Captain.
    All this happend in the NEGREIRA'S years, with Barcelona paying refs like Mourinho suspected and suggested many times...
    Thats why Mourinho, Xabi or Arbeloa are respected in Real Madrid but Casillas lost all his credibility from the fans or the club.

    • @NZV13

      Here in Spain people don't want to recognize but that team used the possesion as defense, no risking any pass to avoid transitions...and yes they got the BEST defense with Puyol Ramos Piqué & Busquets in his prime
