Marquez. Javier had his skills, but the ball playing of Rafa was incredible.
Mascherano was seriously underrated. Not saying he’s a better CB than Marquez but he was the least talked player of that 2014-15 treble winning season. Him slotting perfectly into that CB role after being brought as a DM tells how versatile he was.
Very different players, both top tier. I miss them. Mascherano was more of a destroyer; Márquez was more of a technical CB with great passing.
Both amazing but Mascherano could also play in the midfield
Comparing apple to oranges and yes both were pivotal for us
