THREAD | We've been asked to make an unbiased combined Bayern/Barça XI after the @totalBarca nonsense.

So much debate, so let us settle this ! 🔥
Goalkeeper :

Ter-Stegen vs Neuer :

Neuer is always going to be the 🐐 GK, but with age and injuries Manu like Ronaldo/Messi is sadly regressing, Mats on the other hand is reaching his prime and is 2nd best player in Barca this year.. Its close but Mats edges it.

🏅 GK - MATS.
Right Back :

Kimmich vs Semedo :

It should've been Pavard but he is injured. Kimmich is the one and i think we can all agree that the German is miles better. Easy.

🏅 RB - Kimmich.
Centre Back :

Piqué vs Boateng :

To be honest, Boateng improved a lot since Hansi Flick and played an important role in our recent success but I’m not sure he would start over Piqué. The Spaniard wins it.

🏅 CB - Piqué.
Centre Back :

Alaba - Lenglet :

The Frenchman has been solid this season but when you come against the Black Beckenbauer, you can't do anything. No player can take David out of the team, Lenglet won't even move Lucas Hernandez from the bench. Simple!

🏅CB - Alaba.
Left Back.

Davies vs Alba :

No debate here, only one or two players can be compared to our "Tiktok star" this season and Alba is def not one of them.

⭐️LB - Davies.
Defensive Midfield.

Goretzka Vs Busquets :

This one is hard, but Goretzka has been enormous since his body transformation. Busquets just like Neuer is a bit past his best, still a very good DM but far from his best. Athletic Leon tops it imo.

🏅DM - Goretzka.
Central Midfield.

De Jong Vs Thiago :

Frenkie in few years will reach the level of Thiago, no doubt! He is such a talented midfielder but he is still not there.

🏅 CM - Thiago
Central Midfield/ Offensive Midfield.

Rakitic/Vidal Vs Muller :

This one is pretty easy. The "2020" Muller is gets into every team. Whether it’s Rakitic or Vidal, Muller is simply better. The beating heart of Bayern.

⭐️ AM - Muller.
Right Winger :

Messi vs Coman :

Simple : "Coman is good. Messi is god."

⭐️🏅⭐️RW - Messi.
Left Winger :

Griezmann Vs Gnabry :

The G's ! I love Griezmann but even Setien is thinking about benching him... Very far from his best, struggling to fit in.

Gnabry "at the moment" is the better player.

🏅LW : Gnabry.
Forward.

Lewandowski vs Suárez

Lewandowski is so clear, clear of everyone. A prime Suarez would have been a though opponent but today, no other striker is a match to the Polish Beast !

⭐️🏅⭐️ FW - Lewandowski.
We know some of our opinions might be controversial and you might disagree, you might think Busquets is way better than Goretzka, Neuer should start or even prefer De jong to Thiago but we tried to be respectful, to judge players by their level not careers.
The starting XI :

8 Bayern players.
3 Barcelona players.
