How did I never realize this before?!
Looking back now Rakitic was so important.
I remember that our spoiled fanbase wanted Thiago to come back or a young Gundogan to replace Xavi instead of Rakitic.
Rakitic gave us something we were missing in midfield. Long pass, long shots, combined with prime busquets and Iniestas dribbling, creativity and deadly passing in the final third.
Umtiti was a monster, with Piques intelligence. Then we had prime Alba + Alves.
MSN prime.
And Ter Stegen.
This team had everything and is in my opinion the best team of all time.
I know that on paper Xavi > Rakitic, but Rakitic gave the team more versatility.
