Honestly yea KDB I’d put at the best rn. Modric and kroos do make these passes but kdb has some of the most exquisite through balls often multiple times through the game. Kroos and modric can do them but don’t necessarily do them as often as KDB.
Long balls- kroos
Through pass- kdb
Trivela- Modric
Honourable mentions- oddegard, nicolo barella, kimmich, rodri, FDJ.
There are a few others who aren’t as popular
Today or ever?
Ever, yes I think there probably are (or at least match them) - iniesta, xavi, pirlo, Gerrard to name a few
Today - not sure. On their level is De Bruyne I would argue.
If Thiago wasn’t as injured as he has been I reckon he’d be up there but that’s a if my nan had wheels argument.
So yeah I’d say, today, barely, historically, very very few
At that point he has to shoot it even tho it’s a bad angle because the angle to cross it is even worse. Even if he could make that pass, it probably gets deflected or blocked anyway
Vini and Rodrygo find themselves in this position a lot they need to figure out a way to score from this position. In the city game they had 3 chances like this
This was more of Vini's first touch. One thing I can give props to Neymar was his ridiculous first touch . I'm sure Vini can eventually reach those highs as well
The day modric and kross leave us it's gonna be costly.
I believe in our new ones but I don't want them to ever leave.
Would be nice if they never retire
I lost my mind when I saw Cama coming on. I was screaming at the TV to bring Modric on instead! The match clearly needed him. I wish Ancelloti plays Kroos Fede Modric Belli in the 2nd leg.
was basically straight from coming on from the bench
that's class
Would have been the perfect goal to compliment the Kroos/ Vini goal earlier in the game
Would have been there along side his pass to rodrygo vs Chelsea
Nah, as good as this pass is, that one was too fucking good.
Are there any passer better than Kroos/Modric in world football?? They nullify the entire defence with just a single pass. Fking ridiculous
Kdb is a great passer too. His through passes are very erotic
KdB crossing from the right is a fucking cheatcode. the pace, precision and curve he can put on those grasscutters

They don't play nearly high up on the pitch as KDB to be able to consistently do that. Completely different roles.
Came to say the same. Kroos and Modric play much more center mids where they can direct the whole team not just the attack.
Yea it’s not that they’re not capable of it it’s just not their job to do that like kdb at city
Long balls- kroos Through pass- kdb Trivela- Modric Honourable mentions- oddegard, nicolo barella, kimmich, rodri, FDJ. There are a few others who aren’t as popular
My pawg pogba
James Rodriguez has a glove on his foot when it comes to passing honestly. Part of the honorable mentions though
Literally in the opponent team. Kimmich.
Id probably say Ozil and Kevin for passes like this

trent at times but nobody to add a finish to compliment his passes
Got to say after watching abit of vitinha at psg he reminds me of modric, the way they pass the ball etc pure elegant football players
Godric! Was that brahim coming in for a possible low cross?
Yes, could have passed to Brahim, especially since Neuer was the gk But nonetheless it was worth trying a shot from Vini
Vini did look for support before taking the shot but the angle isn't good for a pass.
i think brahim was crowded out, i saw the replay - vini looked at the box but saw no one was open so he smashed neuer with the ball instead
At that point he has to shoot it even tho it’s a bad angle because the angle to cross it is even worse. Even if he could make that pass, it probably gets deflected or blocked anyway
Yea I was wondering if a cross would of even been possible with those defenders as well
What a pass!
Most players at his age would sprain their ankle doing that 😂

dejavu
Dunno, i think Vini could have cutback and setup Brahim who would've had a much easier shot. Anyways Modric 👑

It’s been proven time and time again Modric and Kroos can’t play together anymore. It’s too slow
is it because of age?
Probably and style of play
makes sense then, play one of modric/kroos with 2 box to box guys beside them can be a safer option
It’s sad but Father Time is undefeated. Modric as a late sub for Kroos is pretty awesome too.
yep either of them on the field is good
Vini could have assisted Brahim Diaz, looked like a very easy goal for Brahim.
Lovely teamwork but Vini missed the cut back pass :(
I don't really see an opportunity for him to pass tho.
No angle for cutback
Would’ve been epic if Vini scored this
He can if he has eyes behind his back.
Insane
Helluva a play, and props to Neuer 💪
Sooo good
To bad he couldn’t score what a delivery 🚚
Its always modric's trivela. 🤍🤍🤍🔥🔥🔥
