Last but not the least, Toni Kross. As to the admission of David Moyes, Toni Kross was destined for Manchester United until Louis van Gaal, somewhat curiously blocked the move for the same man he promoted from the Bayern Munich academy.

But, there is no doubt about the ability of the German, able to marshall and dictate the pace and tempo of a game to the extent that Paul Scholes said, “Kroos is the best midfield passer in the world, towards the end of my career, I tried to emulate him.”

Given, what the former Manchester United man achieved at Old Trafford, it is high praise indeed. With ten assists from deep-lying midfield position for Real Madrid, Kroos will be the perfect replacement for Michael Carrick.

As Paul Scholes put it, “Kroos would be a perfect fit alongside [Ander] Herrera and [Paul] Pogba at Manchester United”.
