agreed , it frustrates me that fabregas STILL somehow hasnt proven himself to be mature enough to play in the midfield with his past season at Arsenal

he should be a starter

I mean, I it is understandable to a degree. Senna is used more defensively and Xavi is allowed the attacking freedom. I'm not saying Xavi is better than Cesc, however, but he just has an edge over him when it comes to the national team. Cesc is 21 and i'm sure that in the next few years he'll have his place cemented :3some:

I wish he'd start, though. Maybe over Cenna, he made some dangerous errors in the first game....

anybody notice how Iniesta NEVER comes back on defence?

Fabregas should NEVER start over Senna. Senna is the ONE player that has to start in the midfield. He holds it all together. That Spain team would be extremely vulnerable to goals if Senna wasn't in there. Puyol is overrated and the whole defense does not play very well. I've seen Spain start a midfield with Fabregas and Xavi in 2 or 3 games and it wasn't pretty. If they want any success, they need to play this midfield.

Iniesta is the only questionable player as his performances haven't been anything special. However he has one advantage over Fabregas and that's his ability to play out right. That's why he still has a starting spot.

Tomorrow should be interested when Russia plays Sweden. I want Sweden to advance and I'm hoping Zlatan is fit to play.

Feel bad Sweden were dumped out but hats off to the Russians. They played some amazing football at times and should have won by a (much) bigger goal margin.
