#3 Toni Kroos- Real Madrid

Real Madrid v Club Atletico de Madrid - UEFA Champions League Final
Kroos was a key figure in Real Madrid's Champions League campaign

The greatest bargain in Real Madrid's transfer history, Toni Kroos is a magician and has been one of the most influential figures in Los Blancos' journey towards winning 3 Champions League titles in a row.

Nobody pulls the strings from midfield with the efficiency of the German. He is as calming a presence on the ball as any and dictates the tempo of the game with his languid elegance. In fact, Kroos hardly ever makes errors and has a penchant for delivering in the big games.

He has only 7 assists to his name this season but it should be noted that Kroos' contributions are not reflected in figures. He can upend defences at the blink of an eye with precise through balls and is quite often the spark that sets Real Madrid off to dominate games.

He has a pass success rate of 93% in the La Liga and for a player who plays in the league with some extremely gifted midfielders, that is an astounding stat.
