Midfield:
In what could be one of the best midfields in the world, Bayern would have the core of the German national team in their squad if they could combine the signing of Dortmund star Marco Reus with Real Madrid star and Arsenal target Sami Khedira to protect the defence. Reus would likely play alongside German World Cup hero Thomas Mueller in a 4-1-4-1 formation, leaving no space for another former Dortmund star in Mario Goetze. To give some perspective, top class midfielders such as Thiago Alcantara and Xherdan Shaqiri also fail to make the cut here.
Although the Bundesliga champions lost Toni Kroos to Real Madrid earlier this summer, Khedira’s arrival to replace both him and Martinez would more than make up for his departure and still give Guardiola a truly superb selection of players to choose from in the middle of the park.
