Good move made by Toni Kross, is better to go into retirement at the peak of your carrer and not when all is downside and you are gonna be forgoten or with a bitter taste in your mouth because of that.

Anyways i always want to see him comeback to Bayern LEverkusen, and more now when the team is in top performance and in Champions League, it can be a very good "last dance".

Kroos deserves to be made a legend if, for example, this season he really leaves Real Madrid. Because since joining Real Madrid in 2014, until now he has presented 21 trophies for Real Madrid, and this is a very brilliant achievement in my opinion. Actually, I personally also really regret that Kross left Real Madrid and decided to retire after this year's Euros. Because as you said, even though he is quite old, Kroos' performance is still very good. Even when compared to young players, Kroos can still match them, and sometimes even surpass them in terms of performance. However, it seems that Kroos' decision to retire this year is the best thing for him. Because, it's time for him to enjoy the results of his hard work all this time with his beloved family. Apart from that, if for example Kroos succeeds in bringing Real Madrid to win the UCL and brings the German national team to victory at the Euros, I think this will be the most beautiful gift and a very happy ending for Kroos. Because even though the steps chosen by Kroos are almost the same as those taken by Zidane previously, it would be better if Kroos did not suffer the same fate as Zidane in the final result.

So with Kroos leaving this season, it means that next season will be the time for young players (central midfielders) who Ancelotti will definitely rely on to make Real Madrid remain a strong team. The reason is that currently Real Madrid has very young central midfielders, these players are Camavinga and Federico. These two players are no less great, because Camavinga and Federico have often been trusted by Ancelotti this season. Plus, Modric, who already has a very long experience, will definitely guide Camavinga and Federico to become very great midfielders.

Yes, Lewandowski is indeed an old star, even though currently his performance is not as fast as before, but we still cannot forget the digital footprint he made during his time at Bayern Munich and even at Barcelona, he is also a striker that can be relied on, even though he is not as fast as when he was is at Bayern Munich but at least he is still an important player for Barcelona and Barcelona will have difficulty competing in all competitions if Lewandowski leaves Barcelona before this club has a player who can replace Lewandowski with better performance and Barcelona will also have to dig deep into their pockets if want a quality striker from a top club.

Even though Lewandowski doesn't look as strong as before, Barcelona doesn't want to sell this player to any club because Barcelona is also aware that without Lewandowski, Barcelona will have difficulty finding a suitable striker at the price Barcelona wants (with a price below average but with good quality). Now getting a quality striker is of course expensive, so for the time being Barcelona will continue to work with Lewandowski because he is the only main striker they have.

playing for Barcelona? you mean Arda? Oh it's better in Madrid because there he can get definite training, adequate team, extraordinary partners, harmony and it feels more like a family with Madrid. So  Arda seems to refuse to play for Barcelona. Yamal is no different but maturity is not always measured by age. Arda and Yamal are two future players in their respective teams, it's just that at Barcelona it certainly doesn't guarantee that Yamal can be retained 100%, because the team's finances can sacrifice players for the good of the club. Luckily this season, Yamal has become the club backbone and has saved Barcelona many times when his senior colleagues were unable to do so. Yamal burden is too heavy, Barcelona has to sell several players to have a partner who is able to fight alongside Yamal on the front lines.

Is Yamal for sale? Still remember Ansu Fati, who was predicted by Barcelona wonderkids as a potential successor to Messi, but where did he end up? even Brighton didn't really need his contribution. Another wonderkid from Brazil Vitor Roque finally regretted that he never got playing time at Barcelona.

While other children aged 16 were still busy playing games with their friends, Yamal was already part of Barcelona main squad at that age. He is one of the great talents born by the Masia academy among many other talents, he still needs time and playing minutes to hone all his skills.
Arda Güler also cannot be doubted about his abilities, he is one of Real Madrid best recruits. He is still very young, his potential is also very good, Arda Güler will be a future asset for Real Madrid.

The presence of these two young talents will continue Ronaldo's rivalry with Messi. I hope these two young people are able to develop all their talents to create a more competitive competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid in fighting for the title.

That's why top teams must be able to rotate players well, giving young players the opportunity to test their abilities when facing important matches. I know that Madrid and Barcelona have young players because the competition is very tight next season which will definitely require a lot of young players to be able to compete. with other teams, many well-known players may have dropped in performance due to age. That's why every team needs young, talented players like these two because it will definitely benefit the team next season.

I don't want to choose which is the best of the two, Lamine Yamal or Arda Guler because they are talented young players who are owned by big teams in La Liga, top teams like Madrid and Barcelona, we know that teams should not continue to rely on players who are already mature or who already have quite a lot of playing hours, the point is that there is no harm in giving opportunities to young players so that they have more experience in playing so they can play their best game for the team. I think Barcelona and Madrid should keep them for the next few seasons because they could become important assets in the team.

Real Madrid has been preparing for this for several seasons, so for now the departure of Modric and Kroos will no longer have a big impact on the team, although it cannot be denied that losing these two figures will have quite an impact on Real Madrid's midfield, but we can see several other potential young players. that Real Madrid has for the future.

Modric and Kroos are no longer young so it's only natural that they decided to retire, but regarding regeneration in Real Madrid's midfield, I also really believe that there is a possibility of getting better or being able to compete to maintain a balanced team performance.

To be fair when you have talents like Camavinga, Arda, Tchouameni, Jude, Valverde etc that means you do not really "need" other players, Modric and Kroos had one last good year and I think they are going to also win the UCL as well, they are going to finish their career with one of the most won UCL numbers in entire history of football, one of the most decorated club players in the history, so it is obvious that we are going to end up seeing them retire happy while Real have no problems replacing them.

Surely the younger kids are not as good as them today, but they are good enough, maybe better than their younger version. So all in all, I think Real will be fine with these two retiring, I do not think that they will matter that much.

Yeah, agreed because we know that the talk about Madrid is based on Modric alone although there was some discussion about Kroos but it was only a small part because of the belief that Kroos will stay for at least a few more seasons but he has decided to end with a career that is still very bright.

However, it was also a good decision as he retired in Madrid with the luxury of a glittering career so retiring with his individual record is definitely a wish for Kroos.

For the Champions League final I was expecting Reud to get the Champions League trophy as a farewell to Dortmund but with Kroos set to retire my expectations have changed to expect Madrid to win again this season and their 15th trophy.

I think this is not as difficult as you might think, Real Madrid has several talented young players such as Eduardo Camavinga and Aurélien Tchouaméni who show great potential. Although they still need time and experience, they have the qualities necessary to develop into key players in the future. This transition will not be easy and may require some adjustments, but with the right combination of strategies for young talent, Real Madrid can remain competitive in various competitions. Indeed, losing Toni Kroos and Luka Modric will be a big challenge for Real Madrid, because these two players have made a big contribution to Real Madrid over the years and will certainly leave a deep footprint in its midfield. Everyone knows that Perez is known as a clever figure in managing the club, and of course he has a very mature plan to ensure the team remains competitive at the highest level.

After Toni Kroos' retirement, the club is considering new players for next season in the transfer market. No one can truly replace the legendary Kroos. while it's true no player can replace Toni Kroos but gradually the team will try to develop someone for his position. It’s understood that the new replacement will be different and their style of play will never be the same. Madrid doesn't have a replacement yet, but coach Carlo Ancelotti might look for a new midfielder next season. Hopefully, Perez won’t make any rash decisions and will consider the backups already waiting for the position.

Toni Kroos has made the decision and we should respect that. Toni Kroos has made a big contribution to Real Madrid, and I don't think many players can replace his role at Real Madrid. However, because this condition cannot be changed, Real Madrid must look for a replacement to fill the hole that Toni Kroos will leave. That I know, Real Madrid has an interest in Alexis Mac Allister, but it looks like it won't be easy because Mac Allister is part of Liverpool's long-term strategy and most likely Real Madrid has to prepare large funds if Liverpool wants to let go of Mac Allister.

Yes, I am also impressed with the Real Madrid midfield which always distributes the ball to the striker correctly so that the striker can use the ball easily and the Real Madrid strikers are also very good and always clever at taking advantage of opportunities, such as Vinicius who always performs well.

Indeed, if Mbappe is included, it will definitely make Real Madrid stronger because Mbappe's performance is very strong and in my opinion, although Real Madrid already has a strong squad, to make Real Madrid continue to be champions, they must add strong players like Mbappe so that Real Madrid continues to be consistent. win and it is true that Real Madrid will have a strong attack if Mbappe defends Real Madrid and of course other teams in Laliga will definitely make good strategies and prepare good players so of course it is the right decision if Mbappe joins Real Madrid.

Yes, we'll see whether Arsenal or Real Madrid will have Mbappe, but in my opinion, Real Madrid will have great potential to have Mbappe because if I'm not mistaken, Mbappe's dream is to follow in Cristiano Ronaldo's footsteps, but of course only time will tell.

This will not be a problem for Real Madrid. The manager is fond of scouting for good players for the team at least a player that has Champions league experience to manage his midfield. We all know that in football having a quality defensive midfielder is very crucial because he needs to be strong and has technical ability to create attacking chances as well as intercept counter attacks from their opposition. Right now, what Tony needs is a big farewell after winning the UCL title on the first of June. He will be so happy because it has been another successful season for him and his team players.

Arda Guler appeared impressive towards the end of the season and many called him the Messi of Türkiye. He is great at taking advantage of opportunities. This can be seen from the average goals per minute. Although I don't think this is a statistic that can show how the two players actually perform.
On the other hand, Yamal is still 16 years old. And he gets far more playing minutes than Guler. This means that Yamal is more competitive. Both players are the future of the team.

It is very difficult to find a player of Kroos' level. He is a great player on the field. I think there are many players who have the same passing accuracy as Kroos but it is very difficult to find a player who has his vision and intelligence. Without Kroos, Madrid's midfield will be a little weaker. I think the current subs are good enough but as you said, Real Madrid really need to find another great midfielder to supply the ball to Vini or Bellingham.

It seems that Real Madrid has to prepare more funds to find several new players for its squad next season in the transfer market. Because even though it won't be easy to get a player who is equal to Toni Kroos' talent, at least Real Madrid can have a replacement who is slightly comparable to Toni Kroos in terms of the way he plays. Because Real Madrid needs to recruit younger players to fill the lines of players needed by Real Madrid so that next season Real Madrid can remain a strong team in La Liga.

Yamal is also a great talent undoubtedly. He is even seen as the top wonderkid according to the top 50 wonderkids list.    He is 16 years old while Arda Güler is 19 now. Doing these things at this level while you are 16 is an admirable work.

However Arda Güler is more popular these days because of these numbers. He is able to score this many goals in such a short time period. He is very good at benefiting from the limited number of opportunities. If he was playing for Barcelona now like Yamal, he would have surely been able to play much more and who knows what kind of a performance he would have.

Toni Kroos make big decision after announcing retired from football behind has potential for playing until three or four season later on the top level performance. Currently Toni Kroos get one year contract extend with Real Madrid and this season he got more regular position make him easily get new contract with Madrid but he has own decision for leaving football behind on the top achievement. The same with Zidane leaving the football on the top level career and make decision to be head coach for Real Madrid junior team.

Toni Kroos has two matches left with Real Madrid in this season in La Liga and UEFA Champion League final match, its hard acceptable for Real Madrid fans behind Toni Kroos become the legend and success winning many trophies from La Liga until Champion League. Before retiring from football I think he want make complete by winning Champion League and give good perform for Germany national team on EURO 2024.

I think everyone agrees that Lamine Yamal was a phenomenal figure at the start of the season with the goals he scored and his play that was pleasing to the eye. Apart from that, Lamine Yamal was also a key player in several of Barcelona's victories and of course everything he did was impressive even at the age of 16.

However, towards the end of the season, all eyes turned and focused on Real Madrid's wonderkid, Arda Guler, who could always score a goal every time he was used and without hesitation, he currently has a better goals per minute record than Lamine Yamal. Of course, as pillars of the future of two big clubs full of rivalry, we definitely want to know how these talented young players will develop and I hope we can see Lamine Yamal and Arda Guler continue to give their best for the teams they play for.
