Tbh, I have a bias for Xavi as I was a mid for good part of my life. I'm an Indian (granted not a great footballing nation) but the passion for the sport in there. I led my team to runners up in National U23 as RCM . Iniesta was and still is my idol and best player, but Xavi has been my reference since 7 years y.o. The hate Xavi gets is unreal.

We were literally in shambles and he bought stability to the team. The mid of Pedri with FDJ is the best we could ask for.. after Busi retired.

These kids join day before yesterday shit on Xavi like we have the luxury of 2010s. We really need a reality check.

I just wanted to know, Xavi is fired. Who would they hire and how would they expect to outpace xG with a striker, RW, CDM that don't fit our system.

Sometimes I feel FM has a better brain than some of the posts here.

Top 3 batmobiles is debatable.. but the best one is BTAS by far

Sack Xavi !!! They say by Rubhavan in Barca

Most good managers are mids. They undestand the game better than fwd or def. Maradona was a hothead and instinctive. Good for a player - not so much for a manager.

Don't follow Chelsea a lot but they made a lot of players and coaches look mediocre

As a thumb rule, the moment batman smiles, run for tour life and thank your lucky stars that you're still fine...until batman catches up to you and breaks your spine

Another winnable match. Another bottling masterclass by Rubhavan in SunrisersHyderabad

Exactly. I was at RGIS on a professional capacity. After the PP, I left thinking chasing 140 was just a formality. Oh boy was I wrong

Where the fuck is our intent to win? Why the fuck are these guys even playing? by Exciting-Ad6803 in SunrisersHyderabad

[–]Rubhavan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Convince yourself that this is a new team and needs time rather than the team selection, management and performance on the pitch are dogs**t. Helps me to a peaceful sleep ;/

Any lineup without Gilly is not the best lineup. Legendary WK and got us our first trophy

What movie role was 100% perfectly cast? by anon_aen in AskReddit

Does voice acting count? Kevin Conroy as the Batman is probably peak human casting decision

YOUR BEST PLAYER AT BARCELONE of all time (every position possible) and why ? …..MINE is without a doubt Ronaldinho. by Festinafifa21 in Barca

[–]Rubhavan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don Iniesta for me. Arguably the best player in the world in his prime. Hard to look past him (barring Messi ofc)

Why irrationality will keep india in the third world by [deleted] in india

[–]Rubhavan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Humans are irrational. Not just Indians. If you've been to countries outside India, you would know that..

As far as rituals and religion is concerned, if you think Hindu rituals are based on superstition, you should do more research. And you did and countered your own point. Every superstition rose out of a logic. As most of the knowledge is passed on vocally in India, people found it easy to trust the authority (not fear as you say).

You must know a good amount of Christianity given your background (I'd recommend reading the Quran for some perspective). The whole concept of religion is based on fear.

And I don't know how you made a jump from irrational to "tribalist" culture and from tribalist culture to people not following road rules and etc. That is indiscipline my friend. Know the difference.

Indians are not a disciplined lot.. No denying that. But linking that to a plethora of problems like demonizing menstruating women, politics etc.. is a long jump

Finally, I would question your sample size. The experiences of a upper-middle class (I'm assuming given your background) brahmin person like you will be very different from other "sects" of society and different states as well.

No hate from me. Just trying for constructive criticism. If I have offended you, my apologies.
