Agreed! Pep and him know everything about each other and the system. Could also help his fitness not having to play every game?

We should definitely go for Kantinho then since Pep can make him the next Busquets as you seem to imply.
To take this honestly baffling idea seriously for a moment, I don't think Kante has the vision to ever be Busquets-lite, let alone a player comparable or better at what Busquets does.The internet, a great place for people to take a quote out of context. But short answer, yes we should.
On a slightly different but related topic, I've become more and more convinced that we need an experienced CB partner to help Stones and Laporte hone their defensive skills. I just don't think we can depend on Kompany to stay fit I hate to say and Otamendi isn't a good enough defender, I feel they'd learn more bad habits than good from him.
What are people's thoughts on that and what would people's suggestions be?
Alderwiereld would be the ideal for me, good age, a lot of experience bit but he would be very expensive, probably too much so.
Diego Godin is a monster and kne of my favourite plauers but he plays in such a different defensive system. Would be as effective in a team that plays with such a high line? Would stones and Laporte learn the right skills from him? plus I don't see him leaving atletico.
Boateng looks shot.
Bonucci maybe?
Would love to hear other peoples thoughts and suggestions.
