If you ask me this guy and Iniesta are on the same level as Zidane. The best passer of all time without a doubt!

Lol why is the average guess so low. Consistently looks the same height as Messi and at worst looks ½ shorter
5'6.25-5'6.5. Sure, "the measurements are done in the morning blah bla", but some people just don't lose that much height

Rob, What about 5'6.25?
He seems a guy who is not under 168 cm, a solid 5'6 range

Editor RobIf you met him and took a photo, most would probably class you both as the same height.
But he might still measure a little taller than yourself.

Sports measurements are usually done early in the day. I think Rob has him listed pretty accurately.

He says it's 2 decimals more than the last year. It is said 171 cm and silence in the decimals. And reading lips I found out it was 171.4 cm

@CD Xavi is 168 cm. Not over that. He is measured early and he had a rare position while being measured. I think Pedro is very similar to him

@Rob according of the position of his head and the bar do you think at the right moment of measuring he is 168.5 as told, or 168?

Editor Rob depends if it is really hitting his skull, but somewhere in 168-168.5 range is believable based on that.

Xavi is officially measured! He is told: 168 and a half
At 2:37
Click Here
If you observe the bar is a little loose and position is not totally 90 degrees, so Rob got it right! He is 168 cm

I would like to correct my last message. Of course Xavi is shorter than Messi.
Xavi is 169 cm
The tips of the hair can fool us, now I look to the eyes and it's easier to see. As in David Villa, he looks rather 174,4 than 175 cm

No, Xavi is not 168 cm. Xavi was 1,68 cm in the oldest references in the net when he pushed to the first team. He was 18 years and he now looks like 169,5 cm = 170 cm. Similar to Messi, that he now appears officially as 170 cm is official webpage, and Iniesta appears as 171 cm in FCB website.
My opinion after days of researching of heights in footballers:
Raúl González 178 cm
Cesc Fàbregas 178 cm (175 cm when he was a boy moving to Arsenal and they didn't update)
Carles Puyol 178 cm
David Villa 175 cm
Neymar 174 cm
Dani Alves 172 cm
Casillas 182 cm
Sergio Ramos 183 cm
My opinion: Messi and Xavi always look the same (169,5). Iniesta 170,5.
