Bale is nothing compared to
(yes I know Reus is not from RM, just doing a h2h comparision)
Marco Reus who is simply the best midfielder in the world at this moment and you can't disagree, he scored BY HIMSELF 2 goals against RM, and Dortmund would've made it equal if it wasn't for stupid Mkhitaryan.
He leads Bundesliga assists top and he has helped his team with several goals.
He has one hell of a free kick accuracy hitting the post like 8 times so far in last Bundesliga season.
He is extremely fast and his incredible dribbling helps him get past defenders with ease.
And don't bring Garreth Bale stuff, he's still not performing as well as he was at Spurs, he needs time. You'll bring up the UCL goal, guess what, anyone would've scored from there.
So yeah,
TL;DR Reus is the best midfielder ( Robben is too selfish and not as helpful and I am talking strictly about Bundesliga vs Liga BBVA, don't bring world cup performances )
I hope James will perform well, I'd like to see Ramos put away more freekicks
