He is a player that can play almost anywhere in the field and his skills have given him the title of ‘El Ilusionista’ which means the Dreamer, also after the World Cup he came to be known as ‘Don Andres.’
It was also after the 2009 UEFA Champions league matches that he came to be known as one of the best midfielders in the world.
Andres Iniesta is an incredible midfielder and is known as a ‘clutch player’. This Spaniard almost never scores a goal but his input in the game play is the key element that nets the ball.
He gave dazzling performances in the World Cup this summer, his skills and techniques are something that only other players can dream of.
Right now, the player is in the best form of his career and plays next to Xavi Hernandez and these two make a deadly duo.
Paul Scholes
Paul Scholes is another immensely talented player that is known as a complete midfielder. Former French great, Zinedine Zidane described him as ‘the best’ midfielder of his generation.
35-year-old Paul Scholes is a football legend playing for the Red Devils. He is not the best midfielder in the world right now but he definitely makes this list.
He has made 451 appearances for the Red Devils and has netted 102 goals. He was also a part of the English national team squad from 1997-2004 where he scored 14 goals from 66 appearances.
Paul Scholes has spent his entire career at Old Trafford and Sir Alex Ferguson blindly trusts Paul as he never seems to disappoint.
Age does not seem to affect Scholes as he is still a regular and a leading midfielder for the Red Devils.
