Real Madrid may have a thousand problems today, but having an excellent midfield is not one of them. Real Madrid arguably have the best midfield in Europe currently (only Manchester City comes close) with the likes of Luka Modric, Toni Kroos and Casemiro all at the peak of their powers. Modric and Kroos recently made it to the FIFA FIFPro World XI, which is a testament to their abilities.

The trio are extremely adept at playing under manager Zinedine Zidane and have the ability to orchestrate strings from the midfield. From maintaining possession to launching counter-attacks, from cutting open the opponents defense with silky smooth passes to delivering devilish crosses into the box; the Real Madrid midfield has done it all. This makes them extremely unpredictable and it is only a matter of time when we see the team roaring once again.
