Top 10 CMs in the world

Thiago Alcantara.

Kroos? He this month's hype machine then?

Kroos has been a top player for a few years now

Incredible the reaction Kroos's performance vs Arsenal got, tbh.

Was at the game and I honestly wouldn't of known he was playing until we went down to 10 men. Robben was so much better.

Lovely goal, but top 10 in the world? Give over OP. Agree with you Chris, fairly anonymous until the goal.

Even before the sending off I was saying Kroos was the best midfielder on the pitch, and getting slated for it by arsenal fans. Told one of them to rewatch the game and, lo and behold, after watching the game in a balanced way, agreed with me

He was class after the sending off, but to be fair it's not difficult when the opponents are just sitting back.

Bayern, in general, weren't particuarly impressive until the sending off, felt like they were trying to keep a clean sheet and nick a goal. Bit bizarre.

Think what you want but me putting Kroos in this list isn't reactionary

Bentaleb and Dembélé should in the top 10

Kroos was probably top 10 last year too, not about what he did or didn't do the other night.
