Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich: 5 players who will decide the outcome of the tie

#2 Toni Kroos

Toni Kroos

There were reports yesterday, that Cristiano Ronaldo wants Toni Kroos to start every game for Real Madrid. There were also reports that he is moving to Manchester United as part of the deal which gets David de Gea to Real Madrid.

What is undisputed is his importance to the Real Madrid squad. “Kroos is the best midfield passer in the world, towards the end of my career, I tried to emulate him”, and that comes from one of the best midfielders in modern football Paul Scholes.

His ability to control the game is unparallel in modern football, he can pass long, he can pass short and he can even pass into the goal. Against his former club, he has a point to prove, and my sixth sense tells me, he will.
