I don't think he could settle in England.
Nor do I think he could hack the Premier League.

It took him a long time to settle (if he ever did?) at Barcelona.
Then his next club ended up loaning him back to Argentina.

He's absolutely one of the best players in the world. How could anyone argue otherwise?

He's a bit lazy, so his thing is not a long 38-game league season. In cups and for the national team he is exceptional though. He would frustrate English fans expecting a high work rate from their club players.

He's brilliant, I love him too.

I don't know about him going to England though, he's not the kind of players who likes physical football imo.

One of the elite players, but not one of the best. Heck I'd take him at Arsenal, but there are still a decent handful of players I'd pick first.

Certainly one of my favourite players, and when the team is adapted to his style of play he can be extremely effective (much like Lampard).

So yeah, an excellent player - but not quite up there with the likes of Messi/Kaka etc.

I think general concensus with him is that you need to pander to him a little and build around him for him to be most effective. Something that Villarreal have been changing more recently. Didnt he fall out with Pelligrino as well ? I heard one of either Marcotti or Balague going on about how he kinda likes to train when he likes to train and everyone kinda allows him these luxuries to get the best from him. All changed now.

Don't think he'd do as well in the Prem tbh

He'd **** all over a league where Parker/Barton/Huddlestone/Reo Coker are made to look half decent.
