Yeah when a player is rather stubbornly unused by Pep, that's a bad sign.
As Delph found out.

And he did much better(when fit) at LB than Mendy has/is doing. Some players can't live up to expectations and I think it's time to let Benji go because in truth he is still an an enigmatic liability and poor LB defensively.
 
From having little cover on the left last season we now have Laporte, Zinchenko, Ake and Cancelo. Pep can now chop and change formations using these players.
Not sure whats going to happen with Mendy, maybe a loan to give him game time and improve his fitness.
With each week that passes he falls further behind in the picking order.
 
Writings on the wall for him, he's been fit recently but Pep now has a midfielder, right back and centre back all ahead of him at left back in the pecking order. Last chance saloon against Swansea I reckon.
 
Very good tonight. Not much to do defensively but was where he needed to be and was useful going forward, put in a few delightful balls. He's down the pecking order right now, he needs to stay fit first and foremost and when he does get on the pitch we need that every game he plays to earn Peps trust if he's to have a future here. Doesn't need to be spectacular just be consistent.
