There's something incredibly satisfying about watching a player surrounded by a cluster of opposition players get out of a tight situation.
Especially if his name is Andres Iniesta.
During his 16 year spell at the club, he won almost everything there is to win in world football and throughout, managed to consistently be a force in Barcelona's midfield, alongside the likes of Xavi.

Iniesta will be known for many things when he eventually retires, including his signature skill move; La Croqueta.
Although it may be one of the more simple skill moves, Iniesta manages to pull it off with such grace.
The way he deceived Chelsea's Gary Cahill, especially, was a joy to behold.
The great one took his final steps on the Camp Nou turf in 2018 and there wasn't a dry eye in the house.

In the 82nd minute Iniesta proceeded to give the captain's armband to his teammate Lionel Messi. The midfielder sobbed as he was replaced for the final time.
Head in hands on the subs bench, his name was chanted around the stadium for several minutes.
The 34-year-old produced his trademark 'La Croqueta' skill while skippering his side to a Copa Del Rey and La Liga double, playing his final game in the 1-0 win over Real Sociedad.

In what was an unsurprisingly emotional affair, Barcelona fans unveiled a wonderful 'Infinity Iniesta' mosaic prior to the game and the World Cup winner was given an incredible standing ovation when he left the pitch for the final time as a Barcelona player.
A true legend of the game.
