At his best he had a mix of Xavi’s vision, Zidane’s flair, and Iniesta’s playmaking.He's one of the most creative and unique playmakers the game has ever seen. But have you ever wondered why he's never really discussed up there on the top echelon of football Maestros?
Guti had the talent that could rival even the greatest playmakers in history. Yet he never really became a legend like Zidane, Xavi, Pirlo,or Iniesta because of his biggest weakness - himself.

@achimsinn6189 Год назад

Reus wasn't screwed because of being loyal, but because of untimely injuries. He was supposed to become Germanies main player for the world championship 2014, but got injured in the last game before the tournament, because of which he didn't become world champion. After that he also missed the european championship 2016 due to an injury which means the first world or european championship tournament he played for Germany was that awfull 2018 tournament. Then he wasn't playing in the 2021 european championship because he wanted to avoid risking another injury by stressing his body with an additional tournament and lastly he missed the 2022 worldcup due to another injury.

Both of them, alongside Guardiola and Cruyff, they are the 4 of the best midfielders in FC Barcelona in their history. Both teams keep their rivalry and maintain their high performance level this way.

Because Madrid is the highest you can be as a footballer. He probably didn’t want a downgrade. Imagine being in his shoes, being aware of your own skills and to be on par with the likes of Zidane, Kaka, Sneijder etc. coming from youth Madrid team basically being a senior player because u have always been there.

Strategically it would've been better to leave for another top club, but his dream of succeeding at his club would ultimately result in frustration as it would shatter. Guti had the talent but lacked the discipline, and was unfortunated to flourish in an era in which talent was being looked for elsewhere instead.
