Back when barca didnt depends on one player. Every player brave enough to take on at least one player. And back when xavi and iniesta magic at its finest.

[Caarloz]

Iniesta was constantly taking those 1-1’s, amazing to see someone other than messi do that

[GAWiEtv]

I miss Carles Puyol on the field.. much respect to him.
-from Liverpool fan.

The whole time I was wondering why the video is playing at 3x speed, but then I realize I am just used to watching the current Barcelona.

[alexancogranados]

And that’s how all started, the greatest team ever play the game in history.

[EnglishForFootball]

There was a point where Messi Xavi & Iniesta were judged to be the best 3 players in the world, even Cristiano was behind. Then the likes of Villa, Busquets and Alves were in the top 10. Told you everything about how good this team was

[adrianspehar]

My dear God, this is another level. So good, so fluid, so beautiful, so smooth, so fast. I have tears in my eyes everytime i watch the way they played football.

[rasheedelakhlaqsiz]

What a team, Puyol, Pique, and Alves covered the defense, the midfield (Xavi, Iniesta and Busquets) was outstanding, and Messi such a great hard working youngster, great ball hunting, chasing, passing, and scoring. They never stopped attacking, what a fantastic display.

[XfullXrodrigo]

El mejor equipo de la historia, no hay otro igual y posiblemente no habrá. Increíble, sublime

[AlexLopez-hbcl]

I forgot how sloppy Barca’s touches were. Pep didn’t just revolutionize the gameplay. He also revolutionized the players’ first touch.

[luisfernandoamadorhernande]

El Pep Team, el mejor equipo que he visto.
Sin duda un equipazo.
Hizo historia.

[raghunathpoojary]

For that time
People were thinking the team setup was not that good
But now we feel that at every position, a legend is present
Guardiola did not bring legends into his team
He simply created them

[emilturbo]

Showed who's boss in Spain.
Showed who's boss in Germany.
Shows who's boss in England.

The one and only Pep Guardiola 🔥

[juanpablobedoya]

Este equipo, sus grandes jugadores y su gran tecnico me hicieron enamorar del fútbol ... es lo mejor que he visto y por mucho, eso fue un espectaculo fuera de serie

[jjryan]

I swear at one point Pep was telling them to intentionally allow the opponents to attack at the start of away matches for 5-10 minutes, to give them false hope, then proceed to take over possession and dominate the match. He didn't only demoralize the opposing team, he demoralized the entire stadium of their supporters.

[theceoinspired]

No one talks about how young Busquets was too good to be in the starting 11
His ball distribution and absorption of pressure is crazy. So underrated.
Seeing some flashes of that with young Pedri

[tryitworks]

Damn this still looks so easy but no team till this day was ever able to reproduce it. It is the players and Pep. Once in a lifetime team! The best ever!

[oluwanifemiaribisala]

the true epitome of football!!!! you couldnt say one player was well of on the bench they were all special and the way guardiola really linked their talents to create such a masterpiece in football is so beautiful !!! so so crazy he literally moved inesta to the left wing to create chances for the like of messi and eto'o what a beauty

[matthewehritz]

It will always be fun to watch footage of this team, especially Messi with Xavi and Iniesta

[hbinitials]

Fact about barca. The scorer always goes to the assist for the celebration.
