#Xavi
Known as the 'Puppet Master', he has the ability to not only dictate the way his teammates played but also influence the way the opposition game. He formed an almost invincible partnership with Andres Iniesta, who played as an attacking midfielder and Sergio Busquets, who guarded the back four.
This ensured that Xavi, all by his own around the centre circle, had the time and space to create magic. Playing with some of the finest forwards to have ever graced the game, Ronaldihno, Rivaldo, Leo Messi, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Thierry Henry and Neymar, Xavi won a host of trophies with Barcelona. In all, Xavi won the La Liga 8 times and also triumphed four times in the Champions League.
His career with Spain was as stellar as with Barcelona, if not more. 2 European Championships (the first in 2008 was Spain's first international trophy in 44 years) and the 2010 World Cup make him the most decorated Spaniard in history.
He assisted Fernando Torres's goal in 2008 final and repeated the trick four years later with the assist to Jordi Alba, thus becoming the first player to have assisted a goal in the finals of two European Championships.
