Player Xavi Simons

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

He’s the greatest shooter of all time.
Top 2 most skilled finishers and ball handlers all time.
Has 4 rings
Changed the way the game is played more than any player in the modern era.
Now Olympic Champion along with 2x World Cup Champion…

If that’s not a GOAT, tell me what is?
You have to win more than 1 Finals MVP to be the GOAT, for starters

He’s not even the best player of his era
 
Read the rest of the conversation to understand what I meant

I did. It’s still stupid.

There’s no indication he’s THAT talented. Anything can happen in sport but Simon’s isn’t some god level talent and never has been.

He’s a really good, silky footballer and a great signing. There is zero indication he has the baseline level to be one of the best of all time; that’s just land of make believe .
 
I agree with that but he’s got that burst to get away from players. He’s fantastic at drawing fouls just like madders. Poland are just killing all the space here and he’s obviously been asked to play narrow. He’s always moving to get on the ball even in those tight spaces.
yea hes quick enough over 5 yards, but anything more and hes getting gobbled up, watched players just go past him with ease. maddison is exactly the same.

looks a decent player tho, his first touch looks good.
