Many people say Juventus has the best midfield in Europe, but do we? We certainly are blessed with perhaps the strongest central midfield pairing in the game with Emerson and Vieira, however an off form Nedved brings us down a little and our lack of creativity certainly does not help. Lets leave our boys out for a while...
Chelsea might have the most versatile midfield in the game with Makelele in the holding role, Essien doing multiple tasks, and Lampard being the scoring threat and distributor through the middle of the park. They certainly have more options to choose from, however I might question the balance of the side in some situations...it hasn't really hurt them thus far though.
Lyon really can move the ball very quickly through midfield with Juninho in control of the proceedings, and they certainly have an abundance of speed and skill with Govou and Malouda causing problems on the wings. People tend to disregard Lyon because of their underrated players, however Real has already witnessed first hand how the French midfield can absolutely destroy opposition teams.
Milan might have the most creative midfield in the game with Pirlo and Kaka through the middle, however thus far this season I would have to say Lyon has been the more cohesive unit in midfield. Never count out the Milanisti though...
