Pedri Praised by Thiago as Best Midfielder
Pedri has been hailed as the best midfielder in the world by Thiago Alcantara.
The Spanish midfielder has been in exceptional form, with his recent performances for Spain at the World Cup drawing widespread acclaim.
Thiago, who has seen Pedri at close quarters during his time with Hansi Flick's coaching staff, praises Pedri's ability to read the game and make the right decisions.
He compares Pedri to Andres Iniesta, saying he had the same feeling playing with him as he did with the Barcelona legend.
Pedri's performances have been a key factor in Barcelona's success, with the team blessed to have one of the most talented squads in the world.
He has made the midfield position his own, with his logic-defying performances earning him appreciation from the greats of the game.
Thiago, one of the best midfield exponents of the modern generation, says Pedri is the best midfield player in the world right now.
He praises Pedri's plasticity and ability to move diagonally, always aware of what's happening around him and taking the right decisions.
Pedri has reached a flow state, where his performances seem effortless, and he does not seem to break a sweat doing what he does.
He and Rodri are paramount to how well Luis de la Fuente's side fare in the tournament.
Barcelona fans are extremely lucky to have Pedri in their ranks, and the hope is that they get to enjoy him for seasons to come.
On the podcast *Rio Ferdinand Presents*, Thiago was asked to build a three-man midfield of current players, and Pedri was his first choice.
Thiago's praise for Pedri cannot get much better, and it's a testament to the Spanish midfielder's exceptional skills and ability.
Pedri continues to grow in stature, and his recent performances have become so routine that they do not feel spectacular anymore.
The best feeling for a player, especially in a midfield like *La Roja*'s, is when he does not seem to break a sweat doing what he does.
Pedri has reached that level, and it's exciting to see what the future holds for him.
