Is Bastian the best midfielder in the world?

Let's rate Piggy probably now, in my opinion... he is the best!

Most complete midfielder in the world.

Effenberg-Matthaus hybrid.

Xavi and Iniesta says hi

Not until he proves himself outside the bundesliga

He isn't La Liga proven. That is where all the best midfielders have to play.

I don't see why he has to prove himself anywhere, he is a beast in Bundesliga, Champion League and National Team. Xavi and Iniesta are not better then him.

Going by your logic Xavi is not the best until he leaves Spain? :vagi:

Why would Bastian leave a professional league for a pub league?

I thought xavi was declining but he deceived me :vagi: ,still the best in the world by far...

Ps-iniesta second.

Well he could go to the donkey league and be worshiped as a Godly passer among hoofers lol.

Alonso is a hoofer

well atleast you have more competitive teams in Bundesliga and like potential said a beast with NT too..

I dont see a reason why he has to prove himself elsewhere..Its the 3rd best league in the world.And please open your eyes ,there are quality opposition in the Bundesliga.

Its like saying Messi has to prove himself in the physical donkey league.

Not saying he's the best though albeit just pointing out that he's more complete.

Lawl at the "not proven" comments. People still don't rate the Bundesliga?

Yeah, he's still behind Vagi and Iniesta, but influence wise he's just as important as them. World class.

Xabi doesn't hoof, he levitates.

Btw Sushi you shouldn't have taken the not proven seriously.

Bundesliga is pretty overrated in my opinion the only good tram is really bayern Munich, just take look at how dortmund faired in the cl.

He is certainly the best at what he does that's for sure. Nocoincidence between Bayerns defensive record and his injuries.

Alonso is a hoofer, he looks out of his depth when he plays for Spain ffs

I think he is a definite top 5,a complete package as far as we look at his defensive aspects also.Come to Madrid Bastian...Sahin-Bastian :vagi: will be deceived.

Pirlo is a hoofer. That is why Milan got rid of him.

No that's not my logic, that's yours. When did I mention spain? Surag as well, I didn't mention England or messi I simply stated that to be the absolute best in the world he should go to an elite league (serie a, la liga or EPL)

if i had to chose between Xavi and Bastian for Milan id chose Bastian.....It all depends on style of play,Xavi knows how to pass and control the tempo well,but "thats it".Schweni is more complete and there simply arent flaws on his game (at least that im awarre of) hes a very well rounded midfielder

Well Bundesliga is on its way to become an elite league mate or it is indeed Elite imo..Its gonna topple even La Liga in the co-efficient rankings soon.

There's 2 German, 2 English and 2 Spanish teams in group stages

Dortmund had a few injuries and no striker in form during their CL run. It was also a tough group, although I do admit they flopped a bit, probably due to inexperience.

I'm going to get a lot of hate I can already see it coming so might as well get out of the way that although I don't think Bundesliga is a "world class league" it is still IMO the second best run league after barclays PL, with some of the best support in Europe.
