Bale and Thiago: A Fantasy Football dream?

After Cristiano Ronaldo’s exit, the Real Madrid attack could be in for a major shakeup. But if you’re looking for a potential Fantasy Football dream, look no further than the Spanish duo of Isco and Thiago.

The idea of Bale partnering with Thiago has been discussed since 2013 by Pep Guardiola when he was still at Bayern Munich, but with Isco coming into his own under Zinedine Zidane as well as rumours that Thiago could be seeking an exit from Bavaria this summer (his contract expires next season) this pairing is one that could have legs come 2020/2021 campaign.

A look at the partnership between Real Madrid’s Isco and Bayern Munich’s Javi Martinez.

If you’re familiar with Isco, you probably know him as the Spanish midfielder who plays for Real Madrid. And if you’re familiar with Javi Martinez, you probably know him as a Spanish midfielder who plays for Bayern Munich. Both players have been regulars in their respective teams since 2013 and have made significant contributions during that time period.

While both players are technically midfielders (Isco has played more on the wing), their roles are vastly different: Isco tends to play higher up the pitch than Martinez does; he often acts as an attacking midfielder or second striker when he’s not playing deeper in midfield alongside Xabi Alonso or Luka Modric (who themselves enjoy plenty of freedom). Meanwhile, Javi Martinez serves mainly as a defensive player–he hasn’t scored more than three La Liga goals since joining Bayern Munich in 2013–but he has done well helping keep possession while shielding his back line against opposing attackers

The idea of the duo linking up was first discussed by Pep Guardiola in 2013.

The idea of the duo linking up was first discussed by Pep Guardiola in 2013. The former Bayern Munich manager has often experimented with his midfield pairings and formations, but this particular combination would have been a very exciting prospect for Fantasy Football managers.

The Spaniard told Sky Sports: “I have played with [Thiago] many times before and he’s an amazing player.”

“He can play in all positions across midfield or as a No 10 behind the striker – so he could play alongside Isco.”

Isco has been linked with a move to Bayern Munich.

Isco has been linked with a move to Bayern Munich, but he’s not the only player that has been linked. Bayern Munich are looking for a replacement for Thiago Alcantara who recently moved to Barcelona. Isco is a good replacement for Thiago Alcantara because he plays in similar positions on the pitch and has similar attributes as him.

Isco would be an excellent signing for Bayern Munich because he is one of the best young midfielders in world football right now and would fit well into their team if they were able to sign him this summer!

Thiago Alcantara is still only 26.

Thiago is still only 26, and he has been at Bayern Munich for a long time. He’s not at his peak yet, but he could be the next Xavi or Iniesta.

In fact, he already plays like them: Thiago is a central midfielder who likes to dictate play from deep positions by picking out passes with precision and accuracy. He’s also capable of scoring goals himself–he managed 6 in all competitions last season (and 11 assists).

Thiago Alcantara has been linked with a move away from Bayern Munich this summer.

The midfielder is currently recovering from injury and will not be available until next month, but Barcelona are reportedly ready to sell him in the summer due to his injury history.

Bale and Thiago could be a Fantasy Football dream for some FPL managers next season

Bale and Thiago could be a Fantasy Football dream for some FPL managers next season. Isco and Javi Martinez have been a Fantasy Football dream for some FPL managers this season, but Isco has been linked with a move to Bayern Munich, which would affect his value in FPL if he moves there.

Bale has been linked with a move away from Real Madrid after struggling to hold down a spot in their starting XI under new boss Julen Lopetegui this season, while Thiago has been one of the best midfielders in Europe over the past few years at Bayern Munich but could leave them at the end of this campaign due to his contract expiring at the end of next season.

Conclusion

The idea of Bale and Thiago linking up at Real Madrid or Bayern Munich next season is certainly an exciting one for Fantasy Football managers. Both players have been linked with moves away from their current clubs, so if they do end up playing together then FPL managers will be able to benefit from a new partnership that could potentially score points in all categories. However, if this does happen then we should probably expect some rotation between both players as well as Isco who could still play an important role in midfield for Los Blancos despite rumours about his departure from the club being strong at this point in time
