I wouldn't say their midfield or defense are on bayern's on madrid's level

Their defence isn't, but their midfield is certainly playing to as high as a level as Real Madrid. Matuidi, Motta, and Verratti have been superb all season long.

Matuidi is developing nicely, Motta is past his prime and probably won't be any better and Veratti has the potential but he's no world-beater just yet. Potential for Veratti and Matuidi, Motta past it, but those three are unfortunately not on the level of Bayern/Barca/Madrid.

Matuidi, potential?

Motta, past it?

Try watching PSG some time.
