#2 Real Madrid – Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema, Cristiano Ronaldo
Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema, Cristiano Ronaldo. Take a moment to take those 3 names in. Most teams would have been happy with any one of these players, but the Spanish giants backed by Florentino Perez have managed to almost build a fantasy team and have united these 3 supremely talented attacking footballers.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s importance to any team need not be elaborated. A footballer who is one of the greatest of all time, Ronaldo’s goalscoring skills have been simply mind-boggling ever since his move to Los Blancos.

Since Gareth Bale has moved, Madrid have won 2 Champions League titles and it is no coincidence that the All Whites have experienced success ever since the Welshman’s move. Bale and Ronaldo are undoubtedly the stars of this Madrid team, but the player who is often underrated but equally vital in this team is Karim Benzema.
Los Blancos look like a completely different team when Benzema is in the 11 and Zidane will be hoping that his star-studded front three maintain their fitness for the whole season.
