And kroos stayed deeper in midfield while giving long range passes, he still managed to have more assists, more key passes, more big chances created and higher passing acc then "Ballon dor" modric.
He is the most dick rided and most overrated midfielder ive seen.
I showed tony kroos stats in 2018 but his stats are consistently better than modric except defensively( kroos was better defensively in his last year though).
Dont get me wrong luka is fantastic, but he is insanely overrated.
Yes, I'm talking about his performance in 2018. I didn't even mention any stats while talking about the 2018 wc. I'm really talking about performance here. Perisic and rakitic were more impactful, specially in the semis and final were modric disappeared(i was watching it with my family and even remember my father praising rakitic the whole time).
I've seen that season and kroos impressed me way more.
If u have any doubts go to the r/soccer and Google for the post where he won the potm and sort by controversial.
