Isco's disco

It's a pity that Isco started only 21 games in the La Liga this past season. In any other club, he would have walked into the first team and been a feature throughout the season. But owing to the fact that Real Madrid have Toni Kroos and Modric, Isco is not really Zizou's first-choice midfielder.

However, when he is deployed at the tip of the diamond in midfield, he has showcased his unbridled talent. Isco is a wizard with the ball at his feet and he dances past oppositions like a gazelle.

Though he only started 21 games, Isco still garnered 7 goals and 7 assists. He also has a successful pass completion rate of 88%. Let's not forget that he plays as an attacking midfielder where space is at a premium.

He is one of the best creative playmakers in the game and has the ability to play some lethal defence-splitting through balls in the final third. Real Madrid are lucky to have such a talented player in their squad despite the amount of game-time he gets.
