I don't think playing Fernandinho in midfield at 34 is an answer. I would put Garcia in defence, Rodri at the base of midfield, where he was bought to play, Bernado on the wing instead of Mahrez, and I'd play Foden alongside de Bruyne in midfield.Yes need some jounger legs in midfield if only we had a player like Foden, or Bernardo to complement Sterling, Jesus. Our midfield at present is abit old and slow !!! Or just slow !!The biggest miss is Fernandinho from midfield. And it just goes to show what a big influence Kompany was around the club.
I have decided in my own mind that Mahrez is not a winger. He wants to come inside almost every single time. Occasionally we get some magic but he's not suited to that role. It was a mistake to sign him. He's best as a no. 10 in my opinion but Pep will not give him that freedom.
