77% Informative

Xavi and Andres Iniesta became the embodiment of tiki-taka at Barcelona .

The midfield has been a fascination for managers past and present.

Xavi was the first to make his mark, his talents honed in the unrivalled education that is La Masia before he was handed his debut as a teenager against Lleida in March 1998 .

By the time Xavi had arrived at the Camp Nou , Iniesta had been joined in the first team.

The pair helped end Spain ’s long wait for success on the international stage.

Xavi and Iniesta have been at the heart of Barcelona 's finest ever side.

The duo were at the peak of their powers at the World Cup and Champions League glory.

Iniesta scored a stoppage-time equaliser as Barcelona beat Chelsea on away goals in the 2011 Champions League final.

Xavi was often the dictator, the brain of club and country, finding space in the midfield and setting the rhythm of the game with incisive passes of absolute accuracy.
