Since joining Madrid from Bayern in 2014, Kroos has consistently ensured that Real's star attackers get the service they need to rack in the goals. Despite not being on the score-sheet too often, Kroos makes things tick in midfield by doing all of the silent work in the centre of the park.

It remains to be seen if Kroos will be able to bounce back from his disastrous World Cup campaign, but if he does so, we are in for a treat.
