#1 Andres Iniesta (Vissel Kobe)
Andres Iniesta had shown promise right from his days in La Masia, but it was under Pep Guardiola that the Albacete native truly garnered global reviews.
He is widely considered to be one of the greatest midfielders in history, and his partnership with Xavi in the middle for club and country was essential to the successes enjoyed by both sides during a period of unprecedented dominance.
In 2008/2009, the former Spanish international made 43 appearances in all competitions as injuries hampered his campaign, but the 35-year-old still shone through as one of the most important players of the squad.
With 32 trophies won in the colours of Barcelona, Iniesta is the second most decorated player in the club's history, and departed Nou Camp for Japanese side Vissel Kobe in 2018, with his final game at Camp Nou shutting down the city of Barcelona as the fans paid a fitting send forth to one of the greatest to ever don the famous colours of the club.
