[Nrby]

EXPLANATIONS (outdated):

Spoiler: show

Tireless defensive or attacking midfielder, Iniesta has won over 20 caps and scored 4 goals for Spain since making his international debut in 2006. He was part of the Spanish squad at the 2006 FIFA World Cup and made one appearance during the tournament. He played an important role in helping Spain qualify for Euro 2008 after scoring three important goals and providing goal scoring assists for the strikers. He plays club football for Spanish giants Barcelona where he is a first team regular and is popular with the club's supporters. He has produced some impressive form for Barcelona over the last two seasons and has made over 150 appearances for the club since 2002. Iniesta moves the ball around well in the midfield, has a good burst of pace on the ball and provides defence splitting passes for his team mates, he also has a high work rate, good shooting ability and adds a goal scoring threat to the midfield.

I definitely agree with giving his TEC some points up. He's showing jaw-dropping trapping many games.

Damn! He makes it looks bloody easy.

Just look at that. Absolute genius. And this is not the first time. His TECH must be in ''God region''. And also his DA is flawless! He just glides past opponents. I think Mr Evans, or maybe someone else gave him 97 for DA in his stats section. And it works good for me.

Love him, love him, love him .

Konami doesn't give to him 97 on DA and TECH 95, just randomly. Agree with bringing up his TECH to 95 again and update

[Fixer]

Wow he's just...god Im so glad he's spanish.

[tasmin]

ha ha ! lol you guys need so much time to realize that his tech is in god region . first 95, than reducing and now again to 95.so on .

[Xyder]

Well, we're on a time, where the ladders need a real adjust. We need more wide values to don't have players so similar between them, our error was downgrade him to 94 when he was easily a 95 like 1 year ago, but we justified this downgrade to don't have a player so high in TECH compared to others. Konami is right putting him on 95 in his nowadays PES (and Konami's one play so similar to the real one).

Not sure about technique but his DA could go up another point, after Messi(and Ronaldinho?) he has the best control in the world and is not 3 red points under. If Messi is a 98 and Figo is considered a 97 surely Iniesta is a 96.

He isn't a red value for DS either.

[Anders]

I agree with an increase in his DA, with DA 96 he don't need to have high values in AGI and DS to make his movements more fluid, though I think even able to move more fast do his DA he still deserve a orange AGI, 89~91 is a good value I play with 91, I can't suggest a good value in DS because I play with higher TS 78, with TS 78 DS 92 is enough and with you chose to make him less capable of making his runs with the ball DS 89 is a nice value.

What the fuck it's so red in here. Im leaving.

Yes we all know he has amazing close control

[Alexalibur]

I implied nothing, just wanted to share something with you guys to enjoy

[Mr. Evans]

Updated, was needed after the Xavi update.

[bitz]

He drifts wide a lot in reality to be a CMF/AMF for me, I'm gonna try him as a LMF with Incisive Run* in my OF.
And is he really a IT:C ?

[Alexalibur]

He is playing as a wide SS; cutting from the left flank.

And yes, he's a C. He gets an injury most of the time, it became a boring story.

That means that Barcelona deploy 4 SS in formation? Doesn't look right. Pedro, Messi, Sanchez all are SS, Iniesta plays behind them as far as I can tell.

[Alexalibur]

He doesn't use him as SS when Pedro is playing, he plays him on the left along with Messi in the middle and Alexis on the right (or middle). Hmm, now you mention it, he kinda sticks to the side at some points.
