5 Real Madrid players who impressed the most this season

2. Casemiro

Casemiro has looked one of the best midfielders in Spanish La Liga since the last 5-6 season and has showcased his class during critical situations. Although the  Brazilian is not in the best of forms Casemiro has been a crucial link for the Los Blancos.

Casemiro’s has combined well with the likes of Toni Kroos and Isco in the midfield. The 29-year old’s partnership with the forward line will be crucial when Real Madrid play against teams who are defensively strong especially in their Champions League games.

Casemiro has the ability to shut out the best defences with his accelerating pace and quick thinking. The midfielder has highlighted his ability to score from difficult positions that can puzzle the best defences.

Casemiro has operated well at the flanks while his ability to create chances inside the box can outsmart any defensive unit. Casemiro has scored 3 goals in 24 La Liga games this season with 2 assists to his name. Casemiro’s form has looked patchy but the midfielder is slowly coming into his groove.

3. Luka Modric

Modric will be remembered as one of the legendary players to have played for Real Madrid and Croatia. Although Modric has only scored 3 goals in the 2019-20 La Liga season but has contributed with 4 assists.

The 34-year-old Modric is a kind of player who can play offensively as well as defensively. The Croatian has been dangerous as he can open up the rival’s defence with his smart moves and precise passes. His co-ordination with striker Karim Benzema has been crucial for Los Blancos.

Modric is known to be a swift mover and his deceptive moves have often unsettled the opposition. After winning the FIFA player of the year award Modric had stated that he is positive that he can produce many more match-winning performances.

Modric has also shown his ability to win aerial duels and has shown tremendous control inside the box while keeping the ball in possession. His delightful long crosses have been quite a handful while feeding the forwards.

Modric will definitely be a vital cog in Real Madrid’s wheel in their next Champions League game. Modric is considered one of the best midfielders in World Football at the moment. Modric surely adds a lot of value in Real Madrid’s midfield because of his vast experience.
